It could be a cause of depression or an effect of depression. There have always been and always be a LOT of bad. It depends on how well you can accept that.

From your profile, I would say depression is certainly involved, in your case.

To answer you question............sounds like depression to me. Try to stay in the present. You can not do anything about the past or future.

It could just be objectiveness. So much human history has passed before our arrival and a lot of it is bad shit. In fact, a lot of the 'good' done in the past makes today a shit to exist in. Mood swings and roundabouts.
