RE: Another lazy stereotype.

I think the best advice for Bob could be: be the best version of yourself, and in this way, perhaps they would make him think about how to live in peace without harming his health and without hurting others. And if in self-discovery he finds the right balance, then he will have found the meaning, his own personal meaning. By the way, @saimgopang34, you have presented an extraordinary personal story from which many existential analyses can be derived. I sincerely congratulate you, as I congratulate @slowjournals for their profound question.
