Just turned 32

It's downhill from 25. Happy birthday user.

You're the master of your own happiness. Perhaps you just need to put it into another perspective?

Only if you are a women. Men peak at around 36 Labour market and on the sexual market if they steadily improve their self

Human goals are split into two categories: the "how" and the "why".

The former is the question "how should I do x". It assumes that you already have a goal and are plotting its efficient execution.
>How should I buy groceries? I need a job. So how should I find a job? I need a CV. So how should I get a good CV? etc etc
It's an endless chain of tasks and questions related to the optimization of your inborn goals, such as surviving, getting fed and having sex.

Now the problem with many people is that they live such busy and competitive lives that they dedicate their entire energy towards living in the space of the first question, of the "how". And they never ask themselves, "but why?".

The "why" question is the one where you ask "why should I do this?". The optimization of this question is no longer about execution, about the active accumulation of money and sex and friends and careers, but about the optimization of your greater trajectory of your existence as a sapient being. It's your grand plan. It's the thing that you put on top of everything else and let it dictate your moralities, philosophies, politics, and all the other "how" questions that are subject to it.

Whenever someone is depressed, excluding extreme cases like losing a limb or a family member, that depression will always stem from inability to create a "why" motive and wasting your time chasing aimless "how" objectives. Yes you will get the job, the money, the apartment, the car, the girlfriend and the friends, but your brain will still be unable to assign any value to it because you never believed in it to begin with. It just came with the territory with being a human, you just "had to do it to get by" but you never really thought about it, you never asked "why?".

p.s I'm also in my 30s and I cannot feel depression or nihilism anymore. I've spent my entire life asking "why" questions and I'm pretty used to dealing with everything as long as the "why" is consistent.

What if you lost you career to the mandates and are now working an entry level position at 33?
Asking for a fren.

when i ask why me and why like this, i get no reply.
just a meaningless existence without reason

44 here. Nothing ever happens.

As soon as there are no more Trump rallies. Much as I want an end to the bullshit, only when the rallies stop will we know that something will actually happen. Think about it: what's the point of rallying to win an election you don't intend to run in, or even an election that is not supposed to happen due to military intervention?
