The Modern Student

As per my MKSAPP program:

"A 19-year-old man is evaluated for depression of 6 weeks' duration. He enrolled in college as a freshman 5 months ago and began participating in extramural basketball, football, and soccer in addition to carrying a full academic load and having a part-time job."

"Diagnosis: Hypomania"

If this is hypomania, then you apparently can't be successful in this world without having a mental disorder.

And then in sharp contrast: The Underworked American.
