Hello everyone, at the moment I feel that I am really suffering and I don't know why.

I have a lot of friends, a wonderful girlfriend, and I am told that I am extremely good lucking like model standard (not to be big headed there) yet I seam to find myself asking what is the point in life? I am currently not bothered about anything and don't see the point in anything. I seem to feel really emotional about the smallest things and everything seams to be getting to me :(

Can anybody possibly tell me what is wrong with me? And what I can do to change this.

Any answers would be extremely helpful and really appreciated.

Thank you.

How old are you? At the age of 23 (I'm 31 now) I felt the same way. Nothing seemed to make sense and everything seemed pointless. My mom called it "growing pains".

Luckily I had medical benefits that covered "Mental Health". I saw a therapist for about 1 year (every other week). It helped a lot, although I was skeptical. He basically listened to what I was saying, relayed back to me what I was saying and gave me some guidance.. . It worked.

-- Bottom line is, some things in life ARE pointless, but in my opinion, 3 things are very important, Myself (yourself) LOVE & FAMILY. Try to think back to when things felt good. What has changed? Are you in school? Working Full time? Overwhelmed by anything?

Do you feel anxious?

I'm currently at the age of 18. I just don't seem to care about anything anymore, and I mean ANYTHING.it's really starting to frustrate me now and I haven't a clue what to do about it. I have mentioned it from time to time to some friends but their reply is always the same ' haha how can you be? You have the perfect life, everyone would love to swap places with you'. Yet I hate it :(

That is a typical friend reaction. What people fail to realize is that EVERYONE, no matter how much or little they have, feels depressed, anxious or confused by life. 18 was (and is) an odd time for most people (Just getting out / or will be getting out of high school. There are lots of questions typically.. college? Job? GF? etc.) I do not know your situation.

As far as a point in life. . That is a question EVERYONE asks from time to time. There isn't really an answer for that except. . to Live. Feel happy, pain, love.. etc.

In your case, if you are extremely unhappy in your current situation (or even just confused) I would seek out a therapist (mental health). Some people feel like that makes them look "weak". But it is something that can help . And make you a better person (or at least give you some tools to understand what is going on in your head).

I really hope you can find your way. . You have a long a great life ahead of you, try not to let life get you down.
