So take Foolish's advice and kill yourself from being socially isolated. Have fun.

Sunny, just calm down... I have BEEN all these places, and it was society that pushed me to the edge. I've been suicidal, etc, I've attempted on my life and whatnot when I was a teen due to academic pressure cooker and our hypercompetitive hyper stupid capitalist society, that keeps pushing things faster and faster and not asking "Are we moving too fast?".

Human development is so stunted BECAUSE people measur themselves by capitalist or marketarian values (do I have a good job? income? good looking spouse? etc? etc?)

People are so sick because society is bordering on insane.

Go take a look @ Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage

Thse were people sick of modern society and how modern society was controlling their lives and how they had no time to establish relationships with people. The poster was asking : How to deal with loneliness, and we were giving him/her advice.

You should always take advice from people who've EXPERIENCED much worse then you and made a comeback... I have a quote from General Patton of the US ARMY and it's wonderful he said:

"I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom." General George S. Patton
