do you notice how when we're born, things like breathing, thinking and being curious was not much of a conscious thing? we just... do it. that's why we don't remember a lot of things that happened at the ripe age of 1 - 5. when we are actually aware of what we are doing, the way we feel gets more intense. breathing and taking care of ourselves never became something we knew we were doing, it was just... natural. and the more we keep doing it, the less harder it becomes.
if we were to be born, already conscious like the average teen/adult, then things like self care and constantly having to breathe every 7 seconds would stress us out and be hard. because it is something we are not used to, we panic and this prolonged feeling of helplessness can kill us
we are not used to the pains of life because it all just happens later on it doesn't just become a natural feature that we learn to let it be in the background of the things around us, which is why it is hard to do things that feel "natural" to us. in a way, you do have to get used to it, but also know how to work with it. when we let helplessness get in the way of growth and adaptation, it can lead to our deaths
it's easier said than done, but you can do it. it's not impossible, you can get through this
i appreciate this description on our perspectives in life. siii this does make sm sense

twin this was me a few months ago and the way i got my excitement back was reconnecting with old pals (i reached out to fellas i hadnt talked to in actual years) and pushing myself to be the one to make plans/reach out first to the people that were still active presences in my life
though i feel nostalgia lenses are very much a real thing i still think the wonder for life is real
im trying to push myself and take care of myself fully this year too
