How to find something you're passionate about/ career
I never had anything to be passionate about and in general I don't like life. I'm not suicidal but it doesn't matter in the end.
@allanpeter it is frustrating. I used to be passionate about several things and various causes but I feel depression eroded every single thing.
I am currently thinking a lot about this topic as I'm unable to return to work in this depressive episode and cannot see any point in anything right now. But I do seem to recall that what I was passionate about was not something I had to force myself to feel.
So I m wondering if depression may be totally eclipsing some interest in life which seems to get buried deeper each time. Could it be there is something holding you back from expressing yourself fully?
Trauma often does that. I'm currently trying to work on trauma via EMDR.
It's a difficult theme you bring up... I'm struggling with it but in my case it's more because I know how it feels to be passionate and this void I feel now is just like I totally lost all of who I was.
May you be kind to yourself on this journey, may you be at ease with life despite everything
