Life feels like a pointless drag

I just want to clarify that I have no intention of killing myself. I do not feel depressed or suicidal but I just feel very stagnant with life and it feels like it is going nowhere. I have many good things going on but I still feel this way and I cannot precisely pinpoint why. Anyone else feel like this?

  • I have felt like, well, in the past year but I never have planned anything and never will. But I am so hopelessly depressed. Meds don't work for me. Its like they want to pill you up so you and totally numb and you don't have to concern them anymore. Not to say they don't work for anyone else. 36-37 years of abusive relationships, bullying, dead end jobs. I spent the last 20 years wishing to be removed from this planet. The only thing I have which gives me hope is my faith, and honestly the conventional way doesn't seem so appealing to me anymore. You are not the only one. I cant even get help to find a new job because I am working. At work we are forced to smile for mystery shopper. Its so tiring. Just know many of us are in the same boat, honestly easy to say, and I don't want to be that person to pep talk. But you can always reach out to someone here. Even organizations like the samaritans, if you ever need anyone. Honestly some of these things have had mixed results for me, but the options are there
