You should hike until you can hike anymore, fall asleep, and get up the next day and do it all over again.
Hell to the yes. There are so many places you haven't been, foods you haven't eaten, and people you haven't met. Do it. If you hate walking, you're an a-hole. Old people hike shite in Europe on the daily. Go to SW Ireland (Cliffs of Moher, Rock of Cashel, etc.) and just enjoy. Go to the travel board and watch people get into arguments on what part of Croatia, Greece, Spain etc., are more fun.
TRAVEL. I flew to England to watch a soccer match. I'm flying to Spain for a concert in a month. And then I'm going with a buddy to Poland for another concert next year. Just DO stuff. Don't get caught in a rut.
If you need help finding frugal ways to travel, again, hit the travel board. It's always possible, you just have to want it to happen. You can live in Belize as an E-2 (enlisted USAF puke that made about $900 a month at the time) for two months with no apparent income, according to my bro from Bogalusa.
If you're super cheap, go to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The purpose is not to walk, per se, it's to wake up to the view on the west side of the range at a camp site. If you still think you're in crisis, you need more help than TD and shrooms can provide. Park most of the way up Clingman's Dome, walk a couple of miles, wake up, and realize how depressed you shouldn't be.

Anyone going through an existential crisis?
Posted on 6/7/23 at 5:21 pm to genuineLSUtiger
I started writing this the other day. Might as well finish it here
Who am I? I'm No One. Ulysses would know
I'm a nobody, nothing, as far as they know
What I do? what, eh, Wordsworth, now cath gothyou're tongue?
I'm a worker with words Though it's gotten me bung,
Job? Well sure I've a job. Might put me in a hole,
But at times life and strife sometimes feels like parole,
On your soul. Sure I'll locate, I'll locate whatever,
What I really want though is to find buried treasure,
And get out of this dead end town, foul with disease,
Perhaps somewhere with mountains, or oceans, but, trees,
But for now I'll get by, I'm no better than muck,
Come from dirt, still in dirt, seems in dirt that I'm stuck

A lot of people are. You ever listened to Shawn Ryan?

This is not from the morning, and is obviously through a polarized lens, but in the morning you understand why they're called the Smokies. When you look at that view, do you think about what happened last week? Last month? No. You're just going, f@#*, that is beautiful.
If you like rocks, head to El Paso/NM/AZ. Arkansas and Alabama lakes. South Carolina is great because you can hit "foothills" in Greenville" and Charleston life in close order. Get into nature, so you stop listening to social media and just go, "wow."
Even if your budget is Laffy to Opelousas, getting out of your normal environs is cheap, but consider it a depression/suicide prevention cost. You *have* to engage with nature and other people to save your life and sanity.
Isolation is a large risk especially to male mental health. You also may need to move to somewhere you can walk to an open air mall or something to see other people. The mental health of middle aged dudes is absolutely discounted. You have to take charge and say, for instance, "I'm going to World of Bourbon on Tuesday and Friday," you have to get out. I'd mention the gym being critical, but you're probably not that type (SHROOMS!).
Getting out of the house, and having a purpose in life (volunteer activities, whatevs) will keep you alive. Otherwise you're dead at some point earlier than your parents expected. I don't have it figured out, but I can identify problematic trends.
If you're a vet, no shortage of resources are available (although not through fed.gov) . Let me know the particulars, and I will do the searching.

If you’re looking, I’d recommend checking there first
