We are degrees of freedom separated from what people around us are going through.

If we weren’t we would realize that we all more or less worry about the same things. How to make a decent living, how to be successful, how not to make a fool of ourselves in public, how to man-up and speak to the girl we like, how to deal with the terror of an ageing parent etc.

We are not worse in life than everyone else, we simply can’t conceive the severity of their problems.

Make friends and talk with others. We are all living our first life.
