Answer:
One thing that I find hope in when I'm feeling down is philosophy. Philosophy tells me that there is so much that I don't know.
When you come to terms with the fact that you know nothing, you are free to let go of what hurts you.
Alan Watts is my favorite philosopher. You can listen to him in this video The Real You - Alan Watts and decide for yourself.
Some things that contribute to our suffering in the modern world, are things that we're not even consciously aware of. I've always been a highly sensitive person, with a perception of the world (and my surroundings) extremely amplified. This makes basic tasks extra difficult.
The first thing you can have hope in is yourself. When you take small steps to improving every aspect of your life, you open a door for endless possibilities.
In order to feel your best, you have to make sure that you give your physical and mental health a fighting chance. Society doesn't do a great job at making this easy, but with some basic knowledge you can make small changes that will help you feel immensely better.
