Do you experience apathy?

I use to think I did before but this time its different. Before I think it was more or less brought on by depression. Thinking I'm just scum that doesn't deserve anything special but lately I don't feel that. Apathetic towards women, towards finding a companion. Apathetic to find work or furthering my career. Even to my hobbies. It's a really strange feeling and I don't like it. It feels hollow for lack of a better word, like I am just existing but not living. I don't feel depressed anymore, in fact I've been making strides to fight that. Sure there are still things that get me down or anxious, sure there are still things I don't like about myself. Is this just another form of depression or the result therein? What the hell is this madness?

@SW-User that is actually a really good question. I cannot remember the last time i really enjoyed something other than a tv show which is very fleeting. The last time where i really felt alive and enjoyed life

@SW-User thought it was really insightful.

I do experience it.. kind of a burn out of life really. I dont have much interest in status, acquiring a lot of money, social events, or even marriage. I just want small joys and to feel I deserve love..thats the toughest thing that makes me really down.

@Coralmist Its quite random for me. My goals and desires can fluctuate from day to day. Can lack of social interaction cause this I wonder?

@JestAJester Im not sure, but I think keeping hope in our lives for something good, sonething true, is key...no matter what the desire is.

@Coralmist Been searching for answers for a good while now. Not sure there are answers to my questions. I tend to shy away from those questions, burying my head in the sand so to speak. Try to lose myself in my day to day chores or hiding away in the fantasy realm.

User soft-spoken has the crux to it all.
Things happen as they are supposed to happen. No point switching sides on any balance. Moderation saves. Indifference is a bonus to go thru all of it.

SW-User

you should question yourself if ur apathetic, nihilistic, detached or just generally zoned out bc it keeps switching
