   How do you overcome feelings of inferiority, depression, melancholy and suicidal ideation? What helps you stay grounded enough to hang in there?

   Recently I've felt that life is relatively pointless, and that many of my wants and goals are unattainable and completely arbitrary, and when deconstructed, devoid of meaning. I'm not sure how to cope with this feeling, and it makes me want to die.

      How do you maintain momentum to do things? How do you get out of bed at a normal hour?

      I feel like I'm stuck in a cycle of self-loathing and no energy. I feel bad even complaining about it.

      I don't want pity, I just don't know what to do. I have never felt this alone before.

         @deadsuperhero As for the momentum thing, I figured out that there are times when the best thing I can do for *me* is take time out of trying to achieve and accomplish to just savor the individuals & relationships that keep me alive.

      @deadsuperhero Family members tend to be the major thing that keeps me from that point. If you have a romantic partner or religious community, those individuals could play a similar role in your life.
