Topic	What exactly is therapy supposed to do for existential boredom?

To work towards having a fun life is not itself fun. Oh my God, no, no to generativity. Waste of time. Also no to bibliotherapy. I've heard that before. I know what other people do with their mid-life crises, I know lots of old people find "purpose" in guiding the youth. I'm pretty sure that's because those old people at the very least have good memories to look back on. I can admit, it's a little too much to ask to want to be young forever. But to have never been young ever is unique, and not fixed the same way as everyone else. Well it sounds like your crises is centered on a lot of grief at maybe having younger years stolen from you in some way. Coming to terms with that could be difficult. Are there areas of your life where you can find even a small bit of fulfillment now? <cite>GunslingerGunsl posted [p:947486822] in What exact...
