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?

Because if you had ideations of suicidal tendencies or taking your life, then this would probably be a little bit of a different conversation. I think it's normal for most people to not wake up every day filled with this feeling. zest for life. Life is hard, right? It's full of challenges. I struggle with more things in my life than I find things in my life to be easy.

And people may not believe that because they don't get to see it. I am aware that I put content out on the internet, but I choose when I hit record, I choose what I'm going to say. And I choose to let people in on the hardships of my life and other ones that I would rather work through privately.

It is not regardless of the person that you see or maybe measuring your life against a fair and equitable value scale because you don't actually know what is going on in that person's life. Regardless of how happy they may present themselves to be, we're all going through shit at any given time in our life. I think most people –

would be lucky to 50% of the time be able to hop out of bed and be full of just like passion and zest for life. If you're at a higher percentage than that, that is awesome. Do you. If you're at a lower percentage than that, it's okay. Life is about challenge and struggle.

I think it might be more painful than it is pleasurable, but I think it's that painfulness that allows you to take that pleasure and have it be so impactful. When I say the term pleasure, take from that whatever you want to. I know there's some people out there who are high and right and off into left field, whatever. That's not what I'm talking about.

So the other thing that stuck out here, which I mentioned before, the amount of time that you are on antibiotics, that can change. And I'm not a doctor, by the way. I got my MD by watching House years ago. But that level of antibiotic exposure can 100% change the makeup of your body, your gut biome.

And if you do start doing some research into this, which I have been doing because I'm trying to dial in my own gut biome and have a better understanding of, again, input versus output, the foods that I eat, how it's responding to my body, anti-inflammatory, all of this stuff. It's an interesting journey into how much your gut biome actually can regulate almost everything else.
