I’d agree with this.

I also kind of think it doesn’t help that every joke or meme — seemingly — we get now has the punchline as being like “…I guess I’ll die.” There always seems like there’s a negative bend to the joke, and even if we understand that it’s a joke (“Missed the bus; guess I’ll die”), seeing that over and over again all over the place can start to taint your perception some.

Or at least it can for me.

My mind read “Putin (fin)ally found dead…” and I was really excited for a moment.

If you do drop, just know that it’s often a lot harder to get the motivation to go back if you need to.

In ten years, if you are 35 or so, no matter where you are in life it’ll be harder to go back.

I’m not saying the answer here is to stay in school if you are burned out. But just realize that it will be harder to get that motivation later on in life.
