Life.
Sorry if it got too serious. But I used to be chillin' and then I have depression.
But on the more trivial side of things, there are often TV shows or Movies people really like for some reason and upvoted to top of a reddit post asking "what's your favorite movie of all time", but I never seem to be able to enjoy some of those (even before I had depression). Like I don't get what's so good about them. I read though the plot and it just seem so boring.
Like out of a list of 50 movies people claim to be their favorite, I might only wanna watch like 5 of those.
I feel you. I have persistent depression and it's such a struggle to just enjoy life most days. Neal Brennan said it best IMO. He says he is unable to feel joy. I have happy moments, but they are fleeting. I enjoy some things and I have fun doing my hobbies, but it never feels fulfilling. Like, I'm just always looking for something to fulfill me, and nothing ever gets there.
