This question reminds me of when I first realized that in the grand scheme of the universe nothing we do matters in the slightest. Not even my first existential crisis either. Looking back on it, accepting the intrinsic nihilism of life is really the least stressful thing I've ever had send me into a depressive slump.
School was a monumental waste of a childhood. Then unis. Now work. It all sucks.

Yes.
My anxiety beast says hi.
Nope. I usually drop it well before that. Then go back to it for a few minutes or a day. Then drop it again. Rinse and repeat
Absolutely every day... Sadly. Maybe it's just my anxiety and ADHD. But yes.
Almost every job I had prior to realizing I need a work life balance.
Oh ya know, just being alive
Most things I do ;)
Let me answer that with a book title: Life, the Universe, and Everything.
