I don’t know how it happened but I have become useless, defeated, and helpless. I am a once successful happy adult man. I have let myself down in the past year. All I have tried to do is passionately pursue my dreams through hard work and I have failed and really don’t know where to go from here. I am very lucky that I have a kind loving wife, but I feel she deserves much more than me. I no longer engage in life with any sort of vigor or excitement and I find myself feeling sad and jealous of the success of my peers and friends. it is so pathetic and I don’t know how to get out of this depression.

maybe you are just burned out? sounds like you have a lot of ambition don’t let a minor set back or jealousy ever take away the other things you have. You talked about your wife , maybe she can help i’m sure she loves you just as much as you do her, don’t leave her out of this and shut away from her. I always like to think that at your lowest point the only way to go is up. Take your time, change your perspective on things and build yourself up again, you’ll buy yourself time to really act on what matters.
you’re not pathetic stop saying that.
good luck.
usually the simple fix is the best fix. I know that going for a light jog or lifting weights really makes me feel better. It sounds cheesy I know but go for a bike ride alone or jog alone or go lift some weights. itll make you feel better even if only for a day or two unitl you have to jog again
