you dont look like fifty-somthing, not even forty-somthing. And life for you is not exciting? go hiking with a friend and find a spot among the tall trees in the mountain. The spot where sunshine is beaming and dancing through tree leaves. Look up to the clear skies and the sun-- then meditate best that you know how. Daydream about your future. If you are religious, keep singing your favorite gospel songs-- christian songs. Be depressed no more, you have the power to turn your life around.
Never read a book about getting out of depression, even though the shrink did offer one to me years ago. Like pets? get a cat or a dog and take care of it from the heart. Life will continue to be exciting for you Im sure.

I would really need to know why your depressed to give you a really good answer to this one. I'll try anyway! Life is not supposed to be constant excitement unfortunately. We all go through times in our life that are unhappy and even depressing. If you meet someone that says they never get depressed they are not telling the truth. If you just started being depressed you need to try and focus on positive things and move out and away from the depression. It doesn't seem like you can sometimes but you can and I truly hope you beleive that are start to soon. If you have been depressed for awhile I encourage you to get some help with your depression before it escalates to a point of no return. It is okay to be depressed but it is not ok to allow it to get to the point where you hurt yourself or someone else trying to get rid of the pain you are feeling. Don't think you are a minority if you need to seek help in order to get rid of your deppression. We live in a very high stress society, with high expectations and very little black and white to live by. This can cause confusion and guilt that can become depression. Try to focus on the one person in your life that you know past a shadow of a doubt loves you now and always will love you. We all have one of those in our lives if we are honest about it and by focusing on that person we realize that we are important and by leaving this world could effect someone's life forever. We don't want to hurt someone that we love so much but when you get so depressed sometimes you forget that you can destroy a person by leaving them too soon.

For most people a lack of happiness and delight in life is due to growing up to fast. I have found that trying to see life in it's most simplistic form is insight full. For instance, watching for fireflies, enjoying a sunset, enjoying the joy of a pair of puppies playing, or how the cold water feels, really feels, on a hot day. We often miss the simple joys of life because we are so distracted with 'grown up' activities. Sit back and enjoy!!

You are too self involved. Help others in need and you will soon see how well off you are. Volunteer to tutor or mentor a child, join Habitat for Humanity, visit a nursing home or a VA hospital. There are people who need you and will appreciate you. Your outlook on life will change.

Step outside, find a tree, and sit under it. Watch life move around you and then think of how to get involved with it. You won't believe how inspiring a squirrel can be.

If life is not exiting for you, stand next to an exit door, and then maybe life will be exiting.
