RE: The Question Is Not Why People Have Anxiety, But Rather Why Not More People Are Paralyzed By It
"In the 60's people took LSD to make the world weird, now the worls is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal."
Anyways have a look at this article: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2018/apr/05/young-people-have-never-been-unhappier-research-suggests
I am also suprised that not more people are crippled by anxiety especially people who live in cities. Anyways nice writeup I will be following you.
Haha. Love that qoute. There is some truth to it. I think the world, and life in general is very confusing to a lot of people thanks to the typical leftist political and ideological narratives.
It's terrible that young people are unhappy. I mean..objectively things have never been as good as this. But what people, and especially young people lack is guidance. Older people telling them some truths and helping them sort things out (like Jordan Peterson would say) get some control of the chaos that is life.
And todays parents are just not there. We used to make fun of the absent dad who went to work and then came home and read the newspaper..and then occationally answered some questions. How lame right? But, in retrospect he wasn't doing too shabby. Todays dads first of all dont even know what a MAN is, or what a MAN does. There are literally no men teaching in schools anymore. Only women. There are no good male rolemodels on tv. Only wimps and crybabies and conformists. And the rest..they are just with their nose in their phones.
We live in a very child dense neigbourhood.. and to see a family out together with their kid is a rare event.
We told some friends that we are hoping to visit greece or spain this year, and they were like; "yeah..like only you two right? wink wink"
Like..no. ALL of us. Of course I want to go to fucking Greece with my SON! Thats going to be one of the coolest things ever..to show him other countries. To show him the world. To see his amazed face.
People are often so lost..and it's sad to watch.
In my city with have a huge gang problem and it can mostly be attributed to a lack of father figures.
"We live in a very child dense neighborhood. and to see a family out together with their kid is a rare event." I used to live in a neighbourhood like that and there were mostly single people living there that had no pets or children. People were very work focus and the vibe was really unfriendly. I prefer to stay in a world or even neighbourhood that is child friendly and where people want to have a family and not just live to themselves.
