You (me) have a job, a place to live, a car but nothing makes you happy besides taking a little pill for depression and anxiety that lifts your mood just a little bit and very temporarily. How can I find maybe even just a little joy in life, and I don’t mean making money or anything like that. I just want to wake up everyday and feel fresh and just happy to be breathing and living and learn to appreciate life.

My whole life school has been hell, and now I’m finally leaving.
My question is, how do I build up my self esteem? I let it be brought down so much by other people. I always feel paranoid, and I’m convinced something is wrong with me.
So how do I build it from literally nothing at all? I need to be strong to survive in this world. I just don’t know how.
