You're barely 21-22 yo? If you think life is tough at this age then sorry for the bad news, but life gets tougher once you get older. I wish I was in my early 20s again, those were some fun times

It gets better after you retire though!

How do think telling this to someone is helpful? I get your cynic, and that you don’t like me, but how is this comment constructive or helpful? Do you think it’s possible that there might be events in my life that I find incredibly depressing, tragic, and challenging at the moment? If someone says “Gee, my mental health isn’t great right now,” that the best response is “If you think your life is bad now; you should just wait a couple of years.” I really hope you understand what a useless, idiotic, and harmful statement that is. 

You often make it sound as if you are the only one going through stuff though (hint solipsism).

 

Do you really believe things are any different for other journalists? Or for generations other than Gen Z? Or for any other groups you tend to distance from yourself in these statements?

He's got a good point in the second part of that post though: someone basically saying their mental health isn't that good is not exactly something one should respond to with "Oh don't worry....it'll get worse".

Is it just me, or does China always have bad websites for multi-sports games? The web design is just horrible for Sanya 2020 (2021) and Beijing 2022.
