Is it normal that i see no purpose in my life?

83% Normal
18 Comments

After years and years of searching and trying to figure out what truly makes me happy and what my passion is, there’s still nothing there. I don’t have a passion for anything, nothing really excites me so I have no motivation at all. Transferring to different colleges, jumping from job to job, industry to industry and there’s still nothing.
I haven’t had an actual significant other and my family’s been falling apart. I really do not like being around people anymore (as someone who was an extrovert). I just see no point since there’s literally nothing going for me. I feel empty and have felt this way for so many years it makes me sick.

    Thats sad but honestly whats worth living for is totally different for each person.
    My suggestions are talk to a doctor about your anhedonia maybe youre depressed and pills or therapy could help.
    Maybe get pets or volunteer with animals.
    What did you enjoy as a kid? Maybe revisit some of those hobbies.

      true, my childhood was mostly sports, playing on 3-4 teams at the same time so i had very little time to figure out who I was or what I enjoyed outside of sports until I got burnt out after hs. Good idea though animals are amazing therapy & the best company lol

    Go to Asia, volunteer in orphanages and “find yourself”?

    Maybe you just need a complete break from everything for a while to re-assess.

    Happiness and passion is not a requirement for life.

        Happiness is only a problem if you make it one.

          Well most people like to be happy if not totally depressed.

    No, you sound suicidally depressed. I think you ought to see a doctor, and get some help, dear heart.
