What needs to be done to make everything in life go its own way? The answer can be found in any success psychology book. The main thing is to set a goal, "drive a peg" in the foreseeable future, draw up a plan, and then everything will slowly move in the right direction.
But here's such a misfortune: it's good when there, in front, there is a solid surface where this peg can be driven. But if a person sees an emptiness in front of him, a vacuum? Dozens of pegs can be thrown there and they will float there in zero gravity and Brownian motion. Those. the future is emptiness.
What is emptiness in the future? This means that there is no future. People know that tomorrow will come, but their “tomorrow” is meaningless and there is nothing there that you can rely on yourself and push forward into the future. Of course, there are some small items that are no longer pleasing. It can be an unloved job, an unloved partner, a bored routine and a way of life. But if these things from life disappear, then that's it: you yourself will somersault in this vacuum and then you will perish. You may freeze, or you may suffocate.
On average, people have several options for the future. Two of them are universal for everyone. This is the “ideal future” and the “worst scenario”. There are several more intermediate options with one or another dose of preponderance for the good or the bad.
As strange as it sounds, people with a vacuum ahead also have multiple options for the future. There is "perfect" and a few "not bad". But they consider themselves unworthy of these favorable outcomes. They have a feeling that their energy is insufficient for achievement. There is no strength for this. All they are capable of is to get hold of some kind of "stub" of life and somehow survive. Their life has no meaning. Many simply prefer not to look into the future at all, because there is nothing good and joyful there.
This phenomenon occurs in depression. It doesn't matter what exactly caused it. It can be "endogenous", i.e. within the framework of bipolar or unipolar mood disorder, and may be "exogenous." The latter develops in response to stressful events, which somehow showed the ineffectiveness of the individual. For example, a person cannot find a job and is rejected for otaz without special reasons depending on him. These can be academic, personal, or career difficulties.
It is worth remembering that it is not life that gives meaning to our existence and satisfies our needs. We give meaning to life. This is our choice of the future to which we will strive. It all depends on what we focus on.
However, the "empty future" is a rather difficult symptom, which cannot always be eliminated by the "power of thought". Very often antidepressants are needed to remove depression, to give yourself the right to a good life in the future, to see that you are worthy of such a life. So let's say, to see the ground, where it will already be possible to stick the pegs.

Reflections On Emptiness
Emptiness … Experiencing it inside is figuratively associated with despair, pain, confusion, hopelessness - a different spectrum of depressive experiences. "Get rid of the emptiness" - as paradoxical as it may sound, is one of the most frequent requests for therapy.
Emptiness. Sudden And Not Meaningless
At first it seems to you that nothing like this is happening. Work, meeting friends, cleaning the house on Saturdays and horseback riding on Sundays. And then all of a sudden, like a gust of cold wind in a hot summer, you understand: something is going wrong.
"Only This Is Not Enough" (about Greed, Emptiness, Hungry Unicorns And Needs)
Olga Demchuk Let's imagine a person who is thirsty and is given an apple instead. At the same time, he says: "Give me an apple." He himself sincerely does not know the words "water" and "drink." The apple also has water, and in order to quench its thirst, it will have to eat a certain amount.
You Are Absent. Emptiness
Relationships are different. Some quickly end and the person does not even attach great importance to this, does not regret anything, does not think. It is easy to let go of such a relationship and the heart does not ache for them, the soul does not experience, and thoughts do not rush at a frantic speed to Him.
Emptiness
Emptiness It's strange that you can feel it and you can fall into it. It's funny that there is almost nothing to fill it. And going over the usual ways to occupy yourself with something, to distract yourself from it, sometimes nothing suits.
