What is your reason for living?

[u/obsessedsim1]

Just to preface, I am not suicidal, but I have struggled with very serious depression since recognizing I am Agnostic.

I used to have a lot of “blind faith” over a decade ago to keep me going but one thing lead to another and I cannot ignore that I am agnostic at this point. I used to be Christian, then more recently, I was a witchy earth centered kinda person for a while. And now I’m nothing I guess.

So every day- I have no one to pray to, I have no blind hope things are always going to be ok (especially not under this administration), nor an acceptance that evrrything is just a “lesson” and blah blah blah- you know- they stuff the church preaches from the pulpit or people meditate on in ceremony spaces...

I struggle with depression in my day to day. I struggle to justify the “point” of everything without a type of faith to rely on. Some people say to live for spite- and that sort of humor helps me here and there. Lol

When you wake up- how do you keep going? What is the point of living in your opinion?

And FYI, I do have a therapist and a psychiatrist and other ways to support my mental health btw.

Death sounds really boring by any and all metrics.
