I guess the root cause of my depression and feeling sick and low all the time is I want my life to be so perfect. From big things like a new house to small things like a soft silky hair. I'm not happy because there is so many things not being what I want them to be.
I will just say it's just fine I will just enjoy the things that are perfect in my life and those not perfect I just accept and embrace and let them be.
Do you have many imperfect things in your life too? What bothers you the most

I'm actually feeling a lot better now and less miserable as I learn to accept imperfections in life

There are good times and bad times in life. I accept it. No particular problem bothering me right now. I'm feeling okay.

At the moment I am actually starting to feel depressed due to the fact that my visa is taking too long and being away from my boyfriend. But well I am still trying my best to be positive. It is hard though cause this low point actually accentuates other imperfect things in life and no I just find myself staring into space.

Yes for some life is mostly perfect but for others it's mostly imperfect and that's life

Wanting one's life to be perfect? That's impossible of impossibility. He may get his dismal way of life good but not better.

@averygirl72 I remember a line from the popular song, "The Impossible Dream" - to dream, the impossible dream.

Yes because life is not perfect. You just have to learn to appreciate things at it is and enjoy life to the fullest. I have some disappointments but it is ok. I know there is a special reason why it is like that.

What bothers me the most?
I need to think about that.
Generally speaking most things just glide over my bald head
