I think the awareness depression / discontent thing is like the dunning kruger curve. That is the unaware are mostly content, as someone becomes aware they become increasingly discontent, often falling into some sort of nihilistic depression, then as one continues past that point in awareness they grow increasingly towards being content and feelings of internal wellbeing. This is a generalized statement, some follow very different curves.
It is really fun as you become aware of new things to be discontent about after thinking you were already aware and discontent but moved on in the past. Like a roller coaster of curves.
