Nothing attracts, does not make you happy, it is not clear why and for what to live, and life itself has turned into a meaningless sequence of mechanical actions, repeating from day to day … "Empty in the soul" - this is how this state is usually described, which should definitely get rid of.
Sometimes, to get rid of spiritual emptiness, you just need to rest. This is far from as obvious as it might seem - there are people who do not recognize weekends or vacations. The payment for such shock work can be a nervous breakdown, which manifests itself, among other things, by a feeling of spiritual emptiness. However, rest helps only in the simplest cases.
Change of professional activity
The sense of aimlessness of existence is a scourge of people who are not doing their own thing. It so happens that a person has chosen this or that profession not out of personal inclination, but at the insistence of his parents, for the sake of high earnings or for some other, external reasons. Unfulfilling work can create a state of emptiness.
The best way out in this case is to change your occupation. Of course, it is not always possible to realize a youthful dream, for example, at the age of 35 it is already too late to enter a medical institute or a ballet school. But the range of professions to which this or that person is predisposed is very wide. Career guidance tests can be used to find a profession that suits individual inclinations, and at the same time, it is not too late to master it.
Expanding the circle of communication
The feeling of spiritual emptiness arises from the inability to satisfy the need for communication. Loneliness is not always objective - even in a family, a person can feel an emptiness in his soul. This does not mean that he does not love his loved ones. Not all people are capable of satisfying the need for communication, limiting themselves only to the family - usually a person needs a wider circle, friends are needed. If he artificially limited himself to the family circle, as women often do, a feeling of devastation is inevitable.
In this case, it is necessary to establish a reasonable balance between family debt and your own needs for communication. If there is absolutely no way to carve out time for communication with friends (for example, if the husband perceives women's meetings with girlfriends almost as a betrayal of family interests), you can communicate at least on the Internet.
Getting rid of the monotony of life
The feeling of spiritual emptiness is facilitated by the monotony of the way of life: work - household chores. This monotony is successfully broken by interesting events: attending concerts, performances, going with children to the circus or zoo, skiing in winter, hiking in summer, etc.
People who have some kind of hobby, for example, needlework or at least reading, never suffer from monotony. The higher the intellectual level of the books, the less chances you have to plunge into sadness, boredom and indifference, because very often these feelings hide a lack of interest in something.
It also happens that nothing helps to cope with the feeling of spiritual emptiness. Then you can suspect depression - a very serious nervous disorder, which cannot be dealt with on your own. In this case, it is advisable to consult a psychotherapist.
