Maybe you will never be as happy as that ideal self. But I would highly recommend thinking through what the things are that make you feel fulfilled and even content in your life, even if just for a short time. (For example, for me one thing that helps me feel good is nature and animals.) Another thing that can be helpful is figuring out what you need to stay balanced in your life. By balanced I mean, some stress, but not so much that each day is a struggle, enough social interaction that you are enjoying yourself but not worn out, eating reasonably healthy, and doing whatever else it is that helps you feel that things are going well on a day by day basis. (Not everyday, but most days.) I check in with myself daily to make sure I personally am aware of how things are going relative to what I have determined to be my ideal life balance. That way if I am feeling much more blah or tired than usual, I can usually figure out why and what steps I can take to fix it. \\nLastly, don't give up on the meds.
