Do you enjoy life ? Right now?

loyal to da game said:
Lately I've been doing minor changes in my life, and it has surprisingly made my life more enjoyable. Within the last month or two: Completely redid my bedroom for the first time in five years, finally got around to painting the stairs up to my deck, started golfing more, started working more, got out of a relationship, started jogging more, been switching up my wardrobe, been using the internet less, about to list my car for sale and going to finally by a truck, and just been living more organized in general. just all little shit that makes my life easier and I feel more accomplished.

I agree, being organised makes you more positive.

I understand depression is huge, but as I don't suffer from it ( I don't think ), I just feel like everyone is depressed every so often, but obviously don't understand what it's like to suffer from depression. All I can say is be hopeful, and go out and try new things. Do you have a girlfriend? Try get one. Do you work out? Try it... Things like this could help. Achieving things in life is a real motivator alone, try achieve something you'd never have previously though you may have achieved. It could help.

You're incorrect in the feeling that everyone is depressed every so often. Sadness is a normal feeling - everyone gets it, and to an extent I might even say it's healthy. Depression is not sadness; it's not just feeling blue. At its worst you feel absolutely nothing. In my case I have been dealing with that feeling to varying extents every day for years. It nearly drove me to suicide last year, at which point a friend made me see a doctor. It is a legitimate medical condition, not just a feeling.

I am doing things with myself: I'm a third year at university studying engineering, previously I have been a volunteer student leader helping first years as well as organising groups of international students on a weekly basis to exchange culture and speak English. I have a mentor with over 40 years of industry experience, as well as 3 degrees (Engineering, Science and Economics) who is very charismatic and who is at this point probably more important for my career than my actual degree. He also lets me drive his Tesla Model S, which might I say is an amazing drive (there's only like 20 of them around the place here atm, so it's pretty exclusive too).

I do plan to take next semester off or maybe part time at university so I can focus on getting some work and sorting myself out. As far as girlfriends are concerned, I've got a sort of FWB thing going on with a polyamorous friend of mine, and I'm on the lookout for potential partners, the main barrier is my aforementioned anxiety (something which smoking weed has helped me a lot with. I feel a lot more comfortable in my own skin since I started smoking it). Things are looking up, certainly, but I'm not out of the woods and I'm one breakdown away from seeking more specialised psychiatric help.

Do I enjoy life right now? hmm, good question but my answer would be no because the regular routine consisting of school, work, and then when i have free time, game. School, work, and game is all I do in my life now. I don't go out much and shop around or hang out with friends. No time for that.
 
It seems to be a similar case for everyone.

Wake up, go to school/college/work, get home, sleep. Along those lines.. Life is harsh at times.

Sure, I understand that, but just because you're diagnosed with depression, doesn't mean others who aren't diagnosed cannot suffer from depression. I'm sure there's mild depression and serious depression which can stoop to levels such as the levels you've just described.

Also - Keep your head up, and fight on.
 
I've been cleaning and setting up a better living situation for myself as of late. It feels good to make progress I let a lot issues pile up but getting back on track. Doing so much everyday, finished my computer desk today, still need to clean a good bit, but its nice to have workstation i bought like 3-4 months ago set up

I do not enjoy life. No matter how hard I try, I can't be happy under my circumstances.

I have hopes my situation will get better, though.
 
I feel like I'm stuck in a cycle doing the same things over and over. Sure wish I had more free time/money.
 
I'd say I'm enjoying it; I'm being productive as hell while keeping sane. I don't really like work at all but the money I earn get me closer to my investment goals. I work out 5-6 times a week so I'm also getting closer to my fitness goals and I also attend school so I'm getting closer to becoming an engineer. The daily routine doesn't make me feel miserable so its all worth it.
 
Always enjoy life man think of it this way atleast your still living!
 
Lets just say I'm not giving up on anything. Recently moved to a snob school, everyone already has there "groups" and not willing to let anyone in. No matter what though, you can't give up.
