Why do I feel so down and not happy anymore? I also feel really tired and non-motivated. Is that normal for someone to feel that way?

I will be 60 soon. I am not happy, nothing seems to make me happy and I feel down and low.
If you are a young person who is facing some small crisis then it's normal to feel as you are feeling temporarily. But you need to motivate yourself and snap out of the above feeling else you may fall into depression.
The only small light in this whole thing is that we are a little more closer now than we were these many years.
For the most part of the day I just feel so tired and listless.
I have lost interest in life itself ever since my husband was diagnosed with an incurable illness this January.
The road ahead seems dark and lonely to me
Nothing seems worth it anymore.
I know life is a journey and we are all temporary on this earth yet I feel heartbroken.
I feel life is so unfair to good people.
I wish there was some way I could give him some years of my life.
I drag myself to cook and do some daily chores and cleaning the house.
So to answer your question, if you are facing some crisis in your life, health, career or family it's normal to feel as you are feeling especially if you are above 50.
I now and then break down. Somehow my eyes just fill with tears. Even as I'm writing this I'm crying.
He had wanted to travel and see many places after his retirement. We travelled a lot last year with my sister and brother in law. But my husband wanted to go on a foreign trip, the possibility of this seems bleak now.
