I don’t know why I feel this way but I do. No matter what I do, in the grand scheme of things, I feel won’t matter. Especially when compared to all the greats that are actively leaving a positive and lasting impact in the world like Elon Musk, Bill Gates, etc. Whenever I achieve something I quickly just say to myself “well it won’t matter or impact the world so why are you happy?” and then I just get down on myself again. I know this way of thinking is silly and unhealthy but that’s just the way my brain works. Especially looking at the Neuralink stream last night I kept thinking to myself “you will never do anything great for the world like this” and it just eats at me. I feel like a gigantic waste of space who ultimately won’t be remembered for anything.
Anyone else feel this way? What can I do to feel happy again?

Well first. If it's truly just how your brain is,then I can't help with that part. But no one can truly tell you how to be happy. It's different for everyone,but I promise there is something that will make you feel good and happy again. I could tell you the classic,"Drink water,and go on walks,and don't be online so much",But I know how it really is. Just be strong,and I promise someday you'll find what makes you happy. It takes time. I'm here for you while you wait :).
