Life. Don't talk to me about life
Life is like the universe.
Without purpose and almost entirely cold, dark and empty. There are a few highlights but they are mostly isolated and ephemeral in the overall scheme of things. |

It's a problem you can tackle with your intelligence like any other.
There are various ways of summarizing human psychological needs. Here's one, based on scheme therapy (not schemes as an algebraic geometer would understand them!): 1. Attachment: safety, stability, being loved and accepted; 2. Autonomy, competence and identity; 3. Freedom to express justifiable emotions and needs; 4. Spontaneity and play; 5. Realistic boundaries and self-control. If you're feeling bad, work out which of the above you are not getting when you need it, and come up with a plan to fill the gap. |
