Driving to work today, I was hit with an overbearing feeling of sadness and depression. Of course, this is nothing new. It hits me 3-4 times a week, and has been for the past three years.

How do people do it? My conclusion is that most people live paycheck to paycheck, so that fear and feeling of "hanging off a cliff" ironically keeps them energized and motivated to keep plugging away.

I live responsibly. Minimal expense. Zero materialism. Significant assets compared to my wage.

And it only makes me more depressed. More introspective. More internal screaming of WHY. WHY do I put myself through this, day after day, year after year. For my parents? For girls? To not fall behind my friends?

Indeed, I feel that the only answer is to make myself poor. To join the others on that cliff. Perhaps the meaning of "survival" is all that truly propels a person forward.

The pain is becoming unbearable. Incredible that I've held onto this feeling for six years now. Six years of daily misery and living "right", and all I have to show for it is my bitcoins and some 401k that I can't touch for another sixty years.

How do people do it?
