It actually makes me feel incredibly optimistic. Nothing snaps me out of a depressive episode as effectively as contemplating the scale of the universe.
On a cosmic scale, all my problems are miniscule. Everything that we as a species worry about, from petty politics to global warming, is likewise insignificant.
My heart soars at the vast potential of our universe.

Same for me :) This is a good trick to get out of depressive moods
While I think this[1] holds, I can still use the scale of the universe to get myself out of bad situations
