Existential depression - overcome it?

Hi @bestThinker6006! We learned a little about existential therapy in my counseling class, so maybe I can help you out a bit. Also if you're interested in psychology you may want to look into this. There's a good book by an existential therapist by Irving Yalom called Love's Executioner that deals with some of these topics as well.

One thing that may be helpful is that you're not alone. We all deal with thoughts of death, uncertainty, and whether we truly exist or not. I think the only way to help existential anxiety is to confront these thoughts and to find meaning in our lives. So what is meaningful for you in your life? This is just one thing I remember, but I hope it's helpful, and we can, of course, continue this conversation.
