Idk what your society or definition of “insanity” is but assuming you’re asking what we believe most commonly leads to one’s mental health entering a negative feedback loop:

Broadly speaking it’s some form of hopeless desperation (yes, the hopeless qualifier matters here) that commonly kicks into high gear after falling into homelessness, at least based on my own observations

Some also get to play on hard mode simply for winning the genetic and/or socio-economic anti-lottery

Grub Rescue

Same way you overcome any of life’s challenges: decide it’s impossible bullshit and move onto another game

Doesn’t sound familiar but I understand there’s very little to go off here

Can’t remember the name but there’s a novel set in Ireland in the not-too-distant future

Synopsis implied it had become a surveillance state but didn’t gave up before confirming due to the literal writing style

I swear every sentence was written in the passive voice (poorly remembered examples):

“It was made known through the clothes he wore they were sent from the department of security”

“As she walked outside the smell made Spring’s arrival clear”

Totally fine normally but do it every single sentence and it becomes a mystery novel where the mystery is what the hell you just read!

… Or idk, Harry Potter 5 is pretty meandering

“You are inside 2 wolves”

Keep your share of rent between 1/4 and 1/3 of your income, set up passive savings contributions of at least 10% and use a high yield savings account to stave off inflation until you both have 3 months living expenses and understand why the best investment strategies are boring

If you’re in university, your desired career and its requirements should determine your major, , not the other way around

I graduated with a bachelor’s degree only to realize my career was a dead end because only in my senior year was I informed there’s such thing as a “mental health license” for which I was disqualified due to low grades in a non-related class the year prior. Eventually I learned how well blue collar jobs pay (with a lot of job security at that) and got back on my feet working in logistics but I’ll never see the 50x return on investments by retirement because “why learn about finances when you can barely pay rent”

It all seems very obvious in hindsight

Are they upset they didn’t get hit with the xz backdoor?
