Answer 1

You are going through a stage. It seems to hit a lot of us in late 20s - early 30s. People used to have it in their 40s and called it midlife crisis. It will pass.

Answer 2

Watching the news I feel like people are nothing but a bunch of rotters. I know this isn&#039;t true, it&#039;s just that TV and Web is like a set of blinders, you only see what news editors decide you should see. No news show tells you about firefighters rescuing a kitten from a tree. It&#039;s just not newsy.

  You need to try to lighten up on people - the vast majority of them are fine people. Unfortunately, we generally don&#039;t hear about the good things that people do.

   But I do understand how you feel; there was a time that I hated myself and the world. I don&#039;t know exactly when it happened, but my attitude started to change and I was less negative.

There is a book titled &quot;Man&#039;s Search for Meaning,&quot; by Viktor E Frankl.

He was a survivor of the n**i death camps and a psychiatrist.

I found reading the book helped me when I was down.
