It's not that uncommon these days, but just because you aren't sad doesn't mean it's not some mild form of depression. We are so overstimulated these days, it seems hard to find our niche.
But the thing is, we're overstimulated by unachievable concepts. Like if you aren't a movie star or pop star you aren't anything. I remember when Barbie was a doctor and a lawyer ... now she's just a party girl. Writers? Heck, if you aren't Snookie or Stephen King or J.K. Rowling nobody wants to publish you. Scientist? They're those evil guys that keep telling us things we don't want to believe.
So not only may it be a sign of mild depression, it's also a symptom of a larger societal issue.
