If You’re Tired of Existing, This Is What Your Mind Is Experiencing

There is a kind of exhaustion that sleep cannot fix—a quiet heaviness that comes from the effort of simply existing. In this video, we explore the psychology of people who are tired of existing right now: not suicidal, not necessarily depressed, but deeply worn down by the constant demands of being alive. We break down the difference between depression and existential exhaustion, why everyday life can feel unbearably draining, how learned helplessness and emotional overload make “normal” feel impossible, and why people who seem fine on the outside may be barely holding on inside. This isn’t about toxic positivity or forcing motivation—it’s about understanding a real, often invisible psychological state that millions experience in silence, and what actually helps when rest, permission, and compassion matter more than pushing through. If this resonates with you or helps you understand someone you care about, watch until the end, like, subscribe, and share. Your support helps bring understanding to experiences that are rarely spoken about—and sometimes, feeling understood is the first step toward relief.
