Interesting question. I’ve felt lost most of my life but haven’t consciously thought of trying to overcome the feeling itself. Lately I’ve been looking at humans and animals as all not knowing why we’re here but doing stuff anyway and wondering why and what’s the point. I’m exploring the idea of the point being to just be and if that’s the case then how can I be the most alive in any given moment. I’ve been examining when I feel the most alive and how to have more of those moments. For you it seems you’re unable to identify those moments but you mentioned you have had a few highs. I wonder if that’s a good place to start. Whatever you were doing leading up to those moments, do more of that. See what’s tangential and explore from there. As others have said, you’re not alone. I hope you figure out ways to have more moments of feeling less lost
