How to feel better mentally..?

So, I feel like I don’t want to do anything with my life. I know I’m lazy. I just really don’t care about anything. I didn’t ask to be here, so why should I have to work to contribute to society..? I know that’s probably a dumb outlook, but something I wrote last night I feel like sums up how I’m feeling:
Life at the moment is like a bad movie. I really want to leave, but I respect the people who created the movie and put so much work in it to leave. So therefore, I’ll stare at the screen, but I’ll put no effort in to change my experience. I’m also too scared to leave. What will other people think? Will I miss an amazing last-second plot twist that makes the ending amazing? That’s the only reason I’ve been sticking around at this show called life right now.

Does anyone have any advice? I just feel unmotivated and not passionate enough to care about anything/ anyone.

(I am aware I already posted this, but I didn’t get many responses.)
When I struggled with depression and dark thoughts I found a small blip of happiness and decided to run with it. I found a passion and it ignited a new world for me. Like a light switch was flipped on to the world for me.

It wasn't easy and the effort I put forth was biblical but I'm here now a completely different person and I've never looked back. Can't even understand how I loved the way I did before!

One day you'll just have a moment and in that moment just throw caution to the wind and run with it.

It saved me.
@Teggy I’m happy to hear you’re doing so well. I just can’t seem to find anything that makes me want to throw caution to the wind.
@marilynmichelle keep taking risks and going out in the world. It'll fall in your lap.

Take up yoga or a more physically demanding route get those feel good hormones flowing first. You might be surprised.
Just get up and do something. Try something new, go somewhere new. Meet new people.

Gain a new perspective, you can learn a lot from the things and people around you. There’s always something going on.

Activity calls for more activity. You just get to get out there.
@LithiumDrop agreed
Great post, I can relate with you in many aspects of my life.I wish I had an answer for you that would solve all your questions. The only thing I can tell you is to be honest with yourself , admit what you like,even if it is outside the box, it doesn´t matter if it doesn´t fit other people´s expectations and follow that path. Maybe then you can find the happiness you deserve.

And like I said before, when you decide you want your own savings and financial stability and take that responsibility on your shoulders knowing there is no plan B, then you will find the motivation. God bless. 💖

Hmm.. well believe it or not but actually I started studying Scientology on my own reading the books and doing the online courses and the L. Ron Hubbard book "Dianetics" teaches alot about the mind and mental health.. I'm currently reading it and you don't have to join their Church to study it I found all my Scientology books at a local used book store for cheap and the online courses are free.. and I'm not a member of the church they don't even have one in my town so u don't have to worry about all the drama of the church u see online if you just study it urself like I'm doing :)

Well you need some meaning in life. Only way to do that is through experiences, feelings and perspective
