- Finding your purpose and personal meaning. This one here is clear, everybody has a purpose, including you, you need to start working on introspection, and exploring yourself inwardly. Also, you can find out in an Akashic Records Reading, for example, and I will be happy to do this one for you. Please reach out.
- Staying present and practicing mindfulness. I always share how important it is to focus on the now: Learn from the past so you don’t have to focus on it, give yourself 100% into making it the best today, so you don’t have to worry about a positive guaranteed future because of your efforts. Invest 10-15 minutes a day in practicing mindfulness, you will gradually feel better.
- Surround yourself with positive people and invest your time with them. In the end, finding a good group where you can belong will be the best outcome for existential depression, because as soon as you feel part of something (a foundational human need), you will be able to feel happier and start to enjoy your life.
If you feel that nothing here works, or you don’t have enough strength to even take these steps, please seek professional mental health care. There is nothing wrong with seeking help when you need it. You will receive the help you need, and you will start feeling better.
Conclusion
In the end, what matters the most is to accept the uncertainty about life, because the one thing you know will happen for sure is physical death, when? It doesn’t matter; you are alive now, and you need to get the most out of it. If you are uncertain about something, ask yourself what you can do to gain more control over the situation and have a super positive outcome. If you do, you will break any existential depression or crisis ties that once were holding you back.
