I touched 40 and feel depressed and like a loser everyday. Don't have the zest to do anything now. I so would love to go back in my 20s and stay there forever. I feel cranky nowadays for no reason. Life's mistakes go on in my mind forever. In between I do other things. How can I be more hopeful and happy in life?
Look up a YouTube video called “life starts at 40”
Pick a new hobby. A bike, a guitar, a book or something.
True. I picked swimming. Now I'm going to learn violin too

What type of life mistakes?
Think about how bad you’ll feel in your sixties for having wasted your forties on moaning.
Yeah, I kind of agree with this. This keep happening with me. When in late 20s, feel fatty, lethargic, engergyless, failure, etc w.r.t. to early 20s.. when in early 30s, feel… It would keep happenning throughout till death.
Honestly it seems im dragging my life. Have not done anything significant in my life till now. Have lost the zest to live.
Aaah. Just forgive yourself for past mistakes & learn from them. In a sense you HAD to make those mistakes so that you could learn. Then learn to enjoy your ordinary life 😃
Check your hormones level. Try NAD, Vit D, Mag Glycinate supplements, if needed.
Definitely this 👆 Most common situation where people end up thinking too deep into life universe and everything when they have high vitamin D deficiency and lack of any physical workout.
I agree, it appears something is going on possibly low testosterone levels but could be many things. Blood test regularly.
This is my biggest fear... Because I'm 34 and I already feel like this. Rope section at home Depot tbh, can't reroll anything and trying to salvage is just a humiliation.
can confirm was at the big orange store today starting at the rope. 33 btw
Sorry to hear what you both are going through. Talk to someone about how you're feeling. You will realize you have value. Go to therapy to get the tools to evolve your mindset. Help someone else who's not as fortunate as you. it will give you purpose
