Why do things I used to enjoy now hold no interest to me. I've changed many things in my life.?

Question:

I've quit smoking cigs, quit drinking, quit any recreational drugs, I've pretty much quit everything. I just watch the crap that goes on in the world and wonder when we all go up in a huge fireball created by some idiot who believes his religion is THE ONE. It goes on and on, Darfur, Aids, Homless families, corrupt politicians. It reminds me of Nine inch nails song "Hurt" "I hurt myself today to see if I could feel". Some times life is just a huge crap sandwich and everyone gets a bite. Just some of us get more bread than crap, if you know what I mean.

Dear Steve E:

I agree. I know just how you feel.
But I think you are clinically depressed.
You have done a great and difficult job with your life quitting all of your bad habits. There are many of us who struggle our whole lives to quit self-destructive behaviors. It takes a very strong person to succeed at this.
But please, don't hit a home run and forget to run the bases - you need to see a doc and get on an anti-depressant. I was suicidal before I did and just one tiny pill a day has completely changed my life. You really owe it to yourself to do this because life is a mirror, you get what you look for, and if you are depressed, things won't get better without you getting some help. God Bless and take care of yourself!

You need to get out more, meet you friends they will broaden your horizons. Still, I know how you feel, I gave up those things too and boy can life be boring at times.
