Agree. Think that people feel the most fulfilled when there's some element of a struggle or a challenge that they've overcome to get the reward. Of course the right amount of that is important. OP doesn't need nonstop challenges coming at them. In this case though it sounds like there might not be enough.

I have had a very busy life since I was a kid. Now I'm in my 40's and still busy as fuck with work, kids, family members and other shit. I don't even have time for depression ๐Ÿ˜‚

That's the secret right there. Also important to keep busy after kids are out of the nest, retirement, etc. Seen ppl struggling to find purpose once the pace slowed down.

Oh, I'll still be busy then, trust me. Sometimes, the wife takes the kids to her family's house and leaves me in the house to have some time for myself, I don't just sit. I either go work on my PC, go walk outside for a while, clean around the house. I can't just sit and do nothing.
