It's been on my Kindle for so long and I've never read more than a few pages of it. Maybe I'll try again.

    had reached the epitome of Western living and Maslow’s “hierarchy of needs” pyramid. But it hadn’t made me happy. Nothing was changing anymore. Everything had become one big routine. Waking up. Having dinner. The nights of working. The weekends of alcohol abuse under the pretense of partying. And it was literally taking my breath away. I had this constant pressure on my chest. It sounded like symptoms of depression to me too, but I didn’t feel depressed. I was just too comfortable. I was so comfortable that I needed out. I was becoming physically anxious from my own living conditions.

from here

This guy. This guy is just like a year ahead of me in figuring it all out!
