Honestly, I don't even understand why depression is considered to be a disorder. How can a sane person be happy in a world like this? Poverty exists, homelessness exists, children without moms/dads or children being physically/verbally assaulted by their parents exist, sexual abuse and rape exist, death exist, people who're always trying to stab you in the back exist, etc etc etc. I'm reading most of the posts that are posted here and feeling sad for everyone, but not having the power to change anything is making me even more depressed. 

Why do people even give birth on a planet like this? It's ridiculous. Forcing a human being to exist is the most unethical and worst thing one can do. I hate the fact that I don't have the power to save anyone. Billions of animals are abused, artificially inseminated (for their milk as an example) and killed for the sake of producing/becoming human food. Even if humans did not harm animals at all, nature is an evil eco-system where almost all animals are obliged to murder one another in order to survive. Saddest thing is that unless all species on earth go extinct, this insane system will continue to operate till the planet explodes. Maybe there are tons of other planets where such suffering is occurring in the universe, but we're not aware of them? Horrible to think about.

I used to believe in religion, and everything was so much easier since how to live my life, what actions to take and not to take, how to treat other humans etc. were told to me. I was told how to live, and it was such a relief to know that if I obeyed the word of god, I would be blissed with eternal happiness in the afterlife, in heaven. I no longer am a religious person thanks to all the critical thinking I've done. Now, I see religion as a way for humans to cope with the meaninglessness of the life. How else would we survive this far?

Thank you for reading my rant. My grandpa, who was living in my house during the past month, recently passed away and I've personally never been so close to death and this event wrecked me emotionally, so just needed to get this off my chest.
