We don't all want to do stuff. Depressed people don't want to do anything.

And many of them are the source of our misery.

It helps to do a little exercise, like this. Answer the question.

When I feel lost and depressed, the thoughts that run thru my mind are
. . .

1)

2)

3)

Exposing these thoughts helps to neutralize the disturbing feelings they create.

I'm not exactly a role model here, but I feel for you... Having a sense of purpose and appreciation can help, but I agree that one's self worth shouldn't depend on society's standards. What helps one person may not help another. Mutual support and understanding here is impressive, but at the end of it, you decide for yourself. I'm constantly changing my creative outlet, even if I completely suck at what I am doing, it helps me focus on what I hope will last forever. I'm struggling with that now. Think of getting out of the state like swimming against the tide... I wish you luck in finding something to get really excited about, hopefully with the tight comraderie.

Wallowing In self pity is a sure way to hinder progress! Go and tell the person with terminal cancer or the paraplegic about your problems and you may just get a bit of perspective! You can help others thats a skill.
