I am also sure that many of us have at least considered the final option. Some people can blow off their problems, but many others cannot. Many people take everything personally, including me. Bad grades equal failure as a person. Losing a girlfriend equals failure.
Angry boss equals failure.
A disappointed mother equals failure. Everything that does not work out equals failure. This type of thought pattern can be very dangerous. Life as a failure is not worth living. And yet we are constantly judged in such meaningless terms.
