Re: I think I'm losing my mind to skepticism - Can you help me?
Okay, once again jumping in with the meta perspective here, but this is starting to sound really depressoidal* in nature. I gather from your postulated first issue that you're having a hard time imagining what happiness feels like now, right? Because what you say fits quite well with how in a depression one's brain may start to frame happiness as an illusion which you finally can see right through, thus creating feelings of pointlessness and a perceived impossibilty to achieve it.
My suggested course of action is still the same but with added emphasis: Don't try to solve these problems through dwelling and don't try to make sense of your questions by reinventing the world. If you can find an obvious cause for why you're having these questions, try to deal with it, but otherwise, seek a professional.
If you want my philosophical answer to why happiness should be pursued, though, then I answer that's because the alternative will always be destructive.

This signature is no longer incredibly out of date, but it is still irrelevant.
