At what point do people find things to enjoy? Like, is there a switch to turn on where you wake up and look forward to anything? If so, please let me know.
I found this switch in love. It's hard to explain. Every morning I feel the desire to participate in love of some sort, whether it be hugging a friend or sharing a smile with a stranger. When I opened my heart, there was some hurt of course, but all of that was overshadowed by the love and acceptance that I found. I know that it's terrible to try this when depressed, at least for me, but maybe if you try you'll find enough love to get you going again. Start with some love from me.
