Not OP but how about the fact that human beings are evolutionarily programmed to feel bad unless they are moving toward or sustaining some meaningful goal, yet in modern times have developed enough intelligence to realize there is no absolute meaning, only relative. So the condition can never be met.
It can be helped by just not thinking about it. It's sad on one hand, and on the other kind of a silver lining. All you have to do is find some hobby that's able to trick your instincts into feeling like it's meaningful even when you know it's not.
For most people this ends up being sex and trying to obtain power.
But other things are possible too.

Give me one reason to BE depressed. Nihilism cuts both ways, you moron. You're not a real nihilist if nihilism makes you sad. You're just some kind of disappointed idealist.
fuck off faggot

Gotta give your life meaning anon. The church and the nice old pastor who impaled your asshole as a kid can't do that for you.
Wanna collect cars? Who's gonna stop you?
Want to join the army and bomb Iraq? Why not.
Want 72 virgins in heaven? Why not 72 virgins on earth?
Want to be a Donald Trump copycat and get /pol/ to make you god-emperor? What sort of heretic would oppose?

Because who cares?
Just indulge in a hobby and enjoy that shit.

just because you know that nothing matters doesn't mean you can't be sad about it
