No worries, bro. One doesn't live by karma points (that would be pretty sad).
I'd say that it's pretty funny that so many people took it upon themselves to explain how their life is so perfect and that any possible explaination for their depression could not lie in that their life sucks.
The reality is that most people's lives suck (including mine and yours) and that most people spend their lives covering up how their lives suck by buying more crap, settling & self-medication. As you said, if it didn't suck, human civilization would not progress.
People make a simple problem into a much more complicated one. If your life sucks, then fix it or accept it. The caveat is that you have to either man up to fix it or swallow your pride to accept it.

- noname123 16y agoFunny because the next book I'm going to read is Nassim Taleb's "Dynamic Hedging" which I'll try to apply to my volatility trading. IMHO, Taleb is an expert in finance not in life in general.
- zackattack 16y agook, so who is an expert on life? and have they published a book?
