I joined a church....the fellowship with some of the people helps pretty well.  I joined ALL, it helps a little bit.  I volunteer my time and talents in public service...that helps more than I expected it to.  I'm generous to panhandlers, beggars and down-and-outers who sit in public with cardboard signs asking for help (some of them might not be scam artists) and I don't hesitate to give a hand to people in trouble but not so much trouble that it'll rub off on me.....people with flat tires, things like that.

Doesn't answer your question does it?  

Dunno what to tell you.  I'm in a couple of Buddhism for beginners FaceBook groups.  I stay sober, eat a sensible diet and get some exercise every few days.  I keep a journal.  Maybe some day I'll actually be glad to live through my days......

I'm not quitting on hope.

Some of us are not religious. The exercise and diet stuff is applicable to everyone though.
