Interested in this. I actually know what he means, I think, in that on occasion I'll just stop and that I have no business being happy or enjoying anything when X evil exists in the world. It's not a permanent condition but it pops up from time to time.

Bros. This may be a symptom called anhedonia which can be a feature of prolonged stress and/or depression.

When your body is amped up for stress and believes your environment is dangerous, the mind deprioritizes extraneous activity to preserve energy. Helplessness and hopelessness cause the brain to switch to survival mode instead of actually living your life.

I think that I would describe it as melancholic, corralled with a strong helping of stoicism. So in the interest of not doing what I usually do and dismissing it out of hand as "feelz" should I be worried about it?

It can be a sign of a larger issue at play, in conjunction with a constellation of other symptoms. It’s also not surprising after the winter we’ve had. Sunlight and mild outdoor exercise every day are shown to be tremendously helpful, a daily 20 minute walk = an antidepressant.

Vitamin D deficiency plus low exercise rates and cabin fever can wreak a lot of winter mood havoc.
