I'm a 27yr old guy who's got a decent paying job. I go out regularly w/ friends and have a good relationship with my family. I exercise a fair amount and feel in shape. In college I was passionate about my work and life and wanted to do everything, but now my outlook on the future is just grey.
I've found myself stuck in a cycle of feeling "out-of-it". I feel so tired anytime of the day, as if I dont' want to do anything. Yet I get on with it, and things seem fine. Activity wise, I've become indifferent. Not motivated to do one thing over the other. I go out with friends and would rather be at home. When I talk to someone now words just don't come out of my mouth making any sense. My thoughts are just scattered. I'm also usually calm and controlled, but once in a blue moon I just crack and get really angry - either punching something or cussing someone out. And usually it's over the smallest thing.
What can I do to get me to get out of this rut??

What you said sounds familiar to me. It could be something physical, you might want to see a doctor, write down all your symptoms & tell him/her exactly how you're feeling.
It could be depression caused by everything being so great that in the back of your mind, in your subconscious, you're waiting for something bad to happen.
Does this make any sense?

i'm so sorry. that is glaring you want him very a lot. yet as a guy interpreting your tale it basically would not upload up. I advise..what he did. no longer very many adult men are THAT selfless that they might walk faraway from someone they loved because of all their personal bags. He would have walked away declaring he did not prefer to burden you yet it is only a fashion to make himself sound like he's making some sacrifice through leaving. i do no longer purchase that it is the actual reason. besides the undeniable fact that the base line is that he does no longer love you want you want him. i'm so sorry. you need to confront him about this and get the reality out of him. and then flow on.

What is the root cause of your anger? That could hold the key to your 'melancholy'. What are you currently passionate about? Have you met all your goals in life? What are you building towards? (Retirement?) That's 50 to 80 years down the road....
You are finding that now that you have established yourself, you want more. It could be spiritually. It could be physically. It could be mentally. You may simply want/need to be married and are missing the spouse and kids.
Look toward your accomplishments as proof of your ability. Look toward the future as your blank canvas. Look within yourself for what you seem to be missing/wanting. Hope this helps!

The symptoms you describe sound like depression...
Depression is an illness and there does not have to be any other "reasons" in your life for you to be depressed.
Please go talk to your doctor about your symptoms and have them do a work-up to make sure that there aren't any other possible causes for your symptoms and look into getting a referral to a mental health professional.

You sound just plain bored and stressed. Why don't you do something new? Make yourself sign up for a class of some sort or take a little weekend vacation. Maybe you just need a change of scenery?

seek therapy, not trying to make it seem offensive but only a profesional probably could help you the most
