alienation.

I feel that we youths are truly disillusioned, disaffected, alienated and nihilistic.

The hopes and dreams of yesteryear, as championed by our predecessors, mean nothing, holds no relevance to us. Indeed, we are not sure what we want and even if we get them, nothing ever seems enough.

Murakami made that painfully clear in Norwegian Wood. I’m deeply haunted and depressed.

I need to do something about myself. Self-destructive behaviour is getting nowhere.
