Literally everything you will ever do is meaningless in the end so no point dwelling on that fact aimlessly.

true i guess. I've been obsessing over it for quite some time now and it feels like I will never go back to the careless, happy person I was before.

Any advice on this? My family is f*cked up and I have trouble opening up to friends. Maybe I should go see a therapist?

happiness is an illusion, nigger. You know it

I want to just say one thing to you, existential anon.
Each moment you have in life, good or bad, is a once in a lifetime experience
A stranger told that to me when I thought shit was too much to handle a long time ago. I think about it every day. Maybe in the long run everything might not be okay, but to me it's worth experiencing because I will only get to do it this time around.
that's just me though.

Sometimes what helps an existential crisis is a bit of Nihilistic perspective. Nothing matters but you thinking about it won't change it. Why should you care about it, it is below you.
If Rene Descartes states I think therefore i am (or more accurately i am the sum of all my thoughts). Then if you don't care about something it cannot matter.
I have been suffering with anxiety/depression and existentialism for years and the only thing which has helped me get it to a manageable level is mindfulness CBT (its like meditating if you think it will help talk to a psychologist) while people talk about clearing your mind if your like me and can't let go of things use the Nihilistic perspective and treat everything as being below your notice, it may help you.

"Everything is going to become unimaginably worse and never get better again."

I've suffered depression for almost 15 years now, I'm just taking the attitude that I don't really give a fuck about anything anymore and just try and find the pleasure in small things. Just do what you want, find joy in inane shit, it's just as meaningful as anything else.

How do you battle existential anxiety? You get off your ass and you do what you need to do. I was depressed my entire life and nothing anyone said every helped me feel better. You know what did? Just doing what I needed to do. I worked hard at my job to make money so I could afford to get a better job. I started working out and running to get my mind off everything and girls started to like me more.
Your life is in your own goddamn hands. Take whats yours.
