I was stable financially and woke up every day trying to make the most of my life. I was working the, I'm going to leave that part out, shift, which sucks big ones. And I was working a lot. It really messed up my immune system and I started getting really bad staph infections.

Over the course of two years, I probably got 100 different infections and I was basically on antibiotics for about a year and a half straight, which for people who don't know, that is gnarly. That kills the good stuff. That kills the bad stuff. That might mess up your biome for the rest of your life. That is a gnarly sentence right there. I'm not sure of exactly what happened, but this ruined me.

I turned into a zombie of a human being and couldn't handle anything in my life. My marriage started falling apart and I became very absent in my duties as a father and husband. I felt like I was running on empty and just shut down into emergency life support mode.

I basically resigned my responsibilities and demoted myself a few rungs down the ladder and have been trying to get back on my feet ever since." I would say that I am in a good place in my career again, but as a human, I am still a zombie. I have absolutely zero zest or joy for life. Everything is just going through the motions like I'm a machine.

It's led to some success, but it's getting to the point where I just don't know what a life without emotions looks like for much longer. I'm not talking about doing anything stupid. Thankfully, I'm glad to hear that. But I generally don't know what else to do and how to get my soul back. Excuse me.

I feel like in a way I kind of just went through too much too fast and just shut down emotionally because I found out that emotions just made things harder to deal with. But I don't know how to turn that back on. I've tried everything I can think of and I'm still just a meat suit. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Holy shit. Okay.

One thing stuck out to me here, a couple did, but this small sentence, I have absolutely zero zest or joy for life. That's how I feel sometimes too. And I feel like that's probably how most people feel at times in their life. So you're not alone feeling that way. And you've identified that you're not going to do anything stupid, right?
