My life is meaningless

By Optimist at 06,Jul,10 21:15

Jobs are not so boring. I helped build a space satellite that first gave telephone, television and weather info for the sub-continent of India. I now feel some pride in that.
I helped build a sub-component of the Hubble space telescope, I now feel some pride in that.
You are a college student, you are smart enough to start your own business. 90% of all start-up businesses fail early, but 10% become great success.
"Everywhere I look, people seem to be happy or optimistic" this is an illusion, people are just trying to hide their unhappiness for the most part. I know.
Just a few ideas.

You seem to have a lot going for you, yet you still wanna lay down and die. That sounds like you have textbook clinical depression. And part of it is that youve always been single. The first thing you should do is to go to a doctor who specializes in mood disorders and get medicated as your problem is a chemical disorder. If the first doctor you sees wont medicate you and sees it different, hes a quack, find another doctor, cause I garauntee thats what the problem is. Once the medication levels off in your body, youll probably develop a sense of confidence you may have never experienced, then you should be able to find a relationship, which will make you depressed again trust me!

But I have some plans to work hard to get money and then when i have them im gonna do everything i want, I mean 100% everything I really want, thats my plan of overcoming the meaninglessness of life

Hey, why not? A goal is a goal is a goal.

By anonymous at 17,Jul,10 10:04

Oh well...(probably) the million year old question....Why the f*** are we here (on the earth)?
What is the purpose of life? We been searching for the answers for millions of years.
I been thinking about it (a lot) lately and of course I don't have any answer.
I been working full-time for about 6 years now (just 30 something years to retire) and life seems repetitive and pretty boring!
Yes, I solve difficult problems, get things done, add value to the product, I am (definitely) smarter than average people, but still I think life sucks.
Almost all of us wait for that "big moment" when life becomes happy, joyful...well I don't think it ever happens!
I think we wait and wait and one day die!

I think the key to happy life is somehow "be present", enjoy small moments / success, try to help others...basically try to enjoy the show (life) as long as we are here!

Good luck to all of you my fellow "life-sucks" friends, hope one day "life-will-rock" for us :)

Whatever i want nothing happens. My life in its true meaning 'sucks'. I hate the way my life is. I want to study and i have that line of mind to study but when i start reading nothing goes in my mind. When some one ask about what i am doing, i say i an preparing for mtech entrance. But the truth is i hardly study, and yes i know that nothing will change on matter what i do. It sucks.

Ever heard of ADHD? Look for a free online test to see how you score. I thought it was a joke the first time I took one. Really, I thought it was a prank my wife was playing on me. The questions and answers described me to a "T", so the questionnaire had to have been assembled by someone who either knew me very well, or who had been paid by someone who knew me very well. Turns out it was neither, and that what I thought was so unique to me is actually quite common. So much for everything I thought I knew. I regret not having discovered that I had ADHD until my mid-30s, but hey, what are you gonna do, right? Of course life still sucks, but that's because I have to learn how to do things the right way; I had been developing "fixes" to deal with the strangenesses of social living, which over time became rigid habits and behaviors. I figure by age 50, I'll be where a normal 30-year-old is; of course, genetically, my life expectancy is somewhere between 42 and 87. Oh well, at least I'm keeping myself occupied. Peace ... or whatever.

i feel the same way as u do. ...so if u find something to live on....do post it!!! ...till then ...hope someday when u wake up, with the first crack of dawn, life gets better and meaningful for you !!!

By sleeper at 09,May,11 15:49

Same here

By anonymous at 10,Oct,10 15:02

I truly believe that life is shit and we're here just waste fucking time. Just plod on and work a brain dead job and hope that maybe one day you'll get a holiday.

By anonymous at 10,Mar,11 13:50

Life is chaos. Whether through intelligent design or by chance, the universe started in a moment of chaos and gave way to life by way of that same chaos. Everything we experience around us and internally is in some way connected to that chaos. Being creatures with intellect, what we essentially have done is to create a semblance of order and mildness in the midst of endless and natural fierceness.

By anonymous at 12,Oct,10 01:35

Swing by a bar, down a glass of confidence, approach the nicest girl who looks single and start with the cheesiest pick-up line you know. If she finds it funny, sit down and chat with her. If she leaves in disgust, shrug it off, down another glass, and wander to the next table.

I really recommend you try to join a social group, like a biking club or something like that. Preferably one with diversity in terms of gender, race, and the like. Meet new people, crack jokes.

But really, what life needs is direction, a greater goal, something you truly believe in and will work towards. For me, it's science; I hate all the arrogant shitheads that populate the field, but regardless of how much I want to strangle my colleagues, we're all working for the greater good. I'm pretty sure I suck at my job, but doing something that I honestly believe in helps temper the bitterness of work.

By anonymous at 13,Nov,10 00:59

Yeah life is hard. I believe we live in an era where it'S defines byL Slavery with a salary. I see people at my work more than my family but hey can't be too depressed though. Having sexe helps the mundane activities of life and also smoking weed (or both together). IT's NOT an advice it's just what I do to smile :)

I'm finding people boring all they go on about is what they are getting, where they've been, how good they are, so and so told them how good looking they are blah blah blah, oh and their kids are the smartest and the cutest. My circle of friend has slowly diminished over the years I just don't have the energy or interest to maintain friendships any more. is it an age thing? I'm fifty,and I feel so bored with people, they are so predictable.
friendships are meaningless!!

By anonymous at 26,Feb,11 02:16

I don't think it's an age thing. I remember being five or six and seeing things -- the Grand Canyon, waterfalls, and hearing relatives talk about how serene/beautiful/awe-inspiring/etc. those things were. I've never felt that way. I've never felt joy in the company of other people, either. But I have become quite good at faking it, I have a degree and a job and a fiancee who I will be marrying in the near future. I wish I could feel a tenth as excited about it as she is, but I can't. I only really care about making enough money to meet basic needs.

I don't know, but I feel there is just nothing in this world for me. Nothing seems to trigger an emotional response for me resembling what I fake when I'm supposed to be feeling "happy."

Here, here. God bless you, brother.

It's wonderfully refreshing to read words that are so internally familiar. Interestingly, even when times appear tolerable, there could be a stage and an hour already set for a severe humbling--whether a meeting in an employer's office for a canning, or a repo appointment for a car that is nearly paid off. For some of us, dullness can be corrected with medication that helps the brain to work properly. Let's face it; some of us are born with things that need fixed. Some of these things are not always so obvious, but they may give themselves away through such symptoms as repeatedly getting canned, being alone for long periods of time, being in the company of the wrong people, having multiple vehicles repossessed, etc. But regardless of the reasons, there is a likeness across individual experiences of misery that is dreadfully wonderful!

I'm past 50 and I've accomplished zero in life. I had a rotten childhood, followed by rotten teen years, an unsatisfying marriage, a dead end job, and now my body is giving out. I was once told that I was old, had lived my life and had nothing to look forward to but the grave. And the person that told me that was right.

By Rose at 13,Jun,11 07:41

Now thats sutble! Great to hear from you.

By anonymous at 22,Jul,11 10:45

Every now an then, there are moments when we should look over our life. It's these moments when we should be able to behold the good&bad experiences that has been our greatest teachers. I have found that only God came fill in the void that's missing in our life. Learning more about him, helps us to learn more about ourselves, and why were here at this time. When we share this message of hope to those who are clueless about life somehow renew a sense of hope for another, who is presently walking down the same path we once did.

By anonymous at 10,Dec,11 21:59

OMG shut up with your arrogant god crap! Talk about not having answers.

By anonymous at 30,Jul,11 08:55

yup u r ryt life jst sucks...since my child hood i hav been thinking dat y r v here...wat the end of all that endeavors.y people r so mch buzy in pllanning for their life...i find every thing is jst illusion..life sucks....

By anonymous at 10,Dec,11 22:04

Your right life is meaningless. So you can make it about anything you like. A career, a hobby, raising a family, traveling, doing nothing, even worshipping mythical deities. Meds might help that is up to you and your doc. Definitely do what it takes to meet people socially. Thing is there is no law that says life is going to always be great, or fair, or fun, or meaningful. Thinking that life must be a certain way will drive a person to addiction. I'm 47. I wish I was thinking about these things in my 20's. You've got youth on your side.
