Depressed and need to do something BIG to shake things up

Get braces. Crooked teeth decrease happiness by 66% (in my opinion).

Volunteer! I applied and am currently training to be a Master Gardener. It’s so far forced me to get out of my head at least sometimes and help other people, mingle (shudder) and get out in nature.

You could also take up a hobby and go all in. Take a class to get better. Or take instrument lessons.

I have this feeling that I want to do something BIG to, I don’t know, feel something different. To shake things up. Get a tattoo? Except I don’t want one. Buy a new car? Except I don’t want or need one and can’t afford it. Have a baby? I’m too old, I’m not healthy, and it’s not a fantastic idea to create life just to shake things up. But I need something. Any ideas?

Get healthy - gym classes?

You don’t need to buy anything, including a tattoo. Consider a graduate degree even if you already have one. Moving is good too. Totally dedicating yourself to health/strength/a new sport.

You realize you have to buy a graduate degree, right?
