    Being anxious and depressed is directly related to your awareness of the world around you. It’s not okay to be okay.

      Sure, but now what? You don’t have the power to change the world. So what do you do? You either develop a mind like a rock which sounds like dying on the inside to me or you actually just end it, right?
      Like I want to find other solutions to this, but these are the only logical ones I can come up with.

        You do have the power to change the world when you stop individualizing your suffering or try to make it magically disappear by changing your perspective and start connecting your suffering to the suffering of others to build genuine community, power and resiliency.

        Notice I never said “there is no use being negative all the time” as a lazy plattitude.

        Try to find and enjoy the little things in life and try not to dwell all the time on things you can’t affect at the moment.
