Too bad pharma can't create a drug to make that ok. Maybe I should contact the American psychiatric association and recommend they invent a new illness. Failure to build a life disorder. I'm sure antipsychotics would be their answer.

It's like the "failure to thrive" label they give infants but the adult version

Haha. This one has sprung to mind.
> Floruit (/ˈflɔːrju.ɪt/; abbreviated fl. or occasionally flor.; from Latin for "flourished") denotes a date or period during which a person was known to have been alive or active In English, the unabbreviated word may also be used as a noun indicating the time when someone flourished.

I wouldn't be to hard on yourself. In the US we seem to have entered a period of economic decline that we enjoyed in the aftermath of WW2. Now people try to measure themselves against a standard that's no longer so readily available.

In addition, we seem to be in a period of social decline where many of the community oriented aspects of society, such as clubs, that allow us to form long-term connections are also disappearing and we are isolated from each other.

I only have personal knowledge of the US but it seems like other developed nations have similar problems.
