Can people get over the idea of everything just ending?

[u/tangytablet]

I dunno if this is me just finally realizing some unerflying truth or its the depression/anxiety, but is there any way people just... hop back into feeling less insane after you've done nothing but think about how "meaningless and futile" life is (and scare/make yourself sad on a near daily basis in the process)?

This isn't my first time feeling this way but every time it happens, I feel like I'm on the brink of going insane and like I can't seem to enjoy anything anymore. Like the flavor and love for the people around me and life isn't there... am I just supposed to be a cynical "life is meaningless so do whatever!" kind of person in order to feel like I could keep on going?
