Climate is fucked, animals continue to go extinct even more, our money will be worth nothing the coming years… What motivation do I even have to care to keep going? The world is ran and basically owned by corrupt rich people, there’s poverty, war, etc. It makes me sick to my stomach the way to world is. So I ask, why bother anymore?

    Because you’re human and that’s what we do. There has been and always will be problems that exist beyond our control. What has made humanity unique is its ability to overcome or adapt to conflict.

    You’re having what’s called an Existential Crisis where you question what the point of any of it is at all. Be it during the crisis we’re currently enduring or be it in a time of great peace and splendor, there very likely is no point to any of this.

    Don’t allow the world to inflict unnecessary burden upon you. Find and focus on your inner peace.

    If you want to find a purpose, be a good, genuine, and kind individual. Bring joy to others.

      salute Well said! Turn down the noise and focus on the moment. It is possible to overdose on news.
