    Yes, that is how I feel now on a daily basis. I do not know why and it has become a problem. Past events in my life play over and over in my mind. Current events in my life anger me. I am cynical to the point that I bring people around me down. I cannot handle the normal challenges of everyday life, I lie awake thinking about what I have to do the next day. I'm tired and although I have a beautiful girlfriend and daughter I feel lonely. I have no friends.
    However I do not feel depressed, I have been through depression and know what it felt like.

    How do I fight this?

    It really sounds like depression and will probably need help coming to terms with the feelings and the reality of that. There is nothing to be afraid of is an important thing to understand and seeking help is no defeat but a good choice. If you had a broken leg you would see the doctor and you should consider this similarly. My best advise is see a specialist rather than a GP who might easily give you medication inappropriately.

    What sort of things are making you feel angry, bitter, jealous and resentful? Can you tackle some of the root causes of those feelings? Maybe it is depression, maybe it is a bit of midlife crisis with accumulated losses / baggage catching up with you?
