What is the point of life?

[Anonymous]

Hello!
Let me just start off by saying this I am not depressed. I was on antidepressants for a while to get rid of my depression and anxiety so I know I'm not depressed because of the behaviors I exhibit and the way I feel currently. While I was depressed, I frequently experience psychosis and had very bizarre delusions which would make me happy temporarily by distracting me from my own life. Now, I just wanted to clear this up because I am genuinely confused and in no way am I currently depressed, I am stable and able to function and get things done. I have always been an odd person. I always had a hard time making friends and understanding what people mean by things. Since, I have gotten rid of my depression, I have been feeling as if why do people live? I'm honestly confused as to why we are all put on a planet, expected to basically do the same things, have a job, start a family, yatta yattta etc. You get my point, I see no interest in any of these things because nothing really matters, there's literally no point in life. I feel like I have to live my life by societal norms. I wasn't asked to be born and I feel like it is an injustice having to live everyday and see no meaning in anything anyone or I do. This is some sort of brainwashed facade people are living. I need to also mention just because I'm not depressed it DOES NOT mean I am happy but I'm also not depressed if that makes any sense. I just feel extremely aware of everything about life and I feel like I have finally understood what the meaning of life is. This just seems like a sick joke and I am not sure how to go about things without this sort of thinking.

Yeah, I've thought about this one deeply. I don't think there is a point. You're here due to the actions of your parents.
And as you're here, fitting in as much as you need to and getting on with other humans is helpful.
I suggest you find yourself a cause. A reason for doing what you do. It could be your family, a child, your man, climbing a mountain, earning a million, or two, or something else.
The goal will help distract you and give you purpose. That may be enough for you to find your own meaning.

There's no point. "Point" is like "purpose". A purpose is an aim of some conscious being. The purpose of a spoon is to ease the consumption of food. But as far as anyone can tell, we weren't created for any purpose. We're the product of billions of years of sexual reproduction. So do whatever makes you happy.

If there was no purpose to life how can live comfortably, use a smart phone and browse the internet? All those things were discovered or made by people that came before you. Your dad, your mom everyone gave you these things so you can succeed in life and help others do the same.

You sound very tired. You might need to get some rest. Try to avoid caffeine and sugar those things can stress you out like that. Drink some tea, take a deep breath and relax.

My purpose in life right now is to smoke weed, hang out with my friends, go to work, and make pottery

The point of life is to discover the point of life.
I am not kidding and that is not trite.

There is no point to life. This is all completely meaningless.
