reading help: I feel like everything’s pointless. - Help.com

I feel like everything’s pointless.

Well, not everything. But a lot of things.

Lately I’ve been having this pessimistic attitude about nothing being worth it, like buying DVD’s. Why would I buy a DVD when I have seen the movie before and can just use the internet? That’s one thing.

Books. Why would I buy a book or even read one when I can be spending my time living a fun and exciting life?

Video games. I love them, but what do I have to show when they are done and completed? Nothing.

That kind of stuff. I’ve been feeling that a lot of my favorite things are pointless. It’s strange- I’ve never felt this way before about much of anything. It doesn’t affect anything else, I still love music, hanging with friends, living life. :)

That kind of stuff is pointless…what isnt’ is maturing yourself…trying to become something deeper nad more intense than the frivilous activities you’ve mentioned…

How abotu being with freinds…getting into a relationship…getting a better relationship with your family members….

Finding strength and faith from stories of your grandparents…

A lot to do…that isnt’ pointless…just gotta start somewhere.

Wow
The irony.
If you were reading about psychology, as you said in your other post I commented on, you’d see that this is a sign of depression/suicide.
But I don’t think that’s what’s wrong. Maybe you’re just developing your point of view on life, maybe it’s a phase. Only you can know.
However I do agree with you on the video games bit.
:D

I doubt it’s depression, though it might be. I do have bouts of depression… then again, bipolar runs in the family. :P

In any case I think I just need to cut back on the things I find useless and do more things I find a purpose in.

You give meaning to what you feel deserves meaning.
But I agree with you, Gamerkc; Life is made for living. Go out and have fun while you’re young, because time slips away faster than you think.
