Secret handshake

In the past couple of weeks, I'm finding myself more and more bitter at everyone around me. I try to suppress these feelings or release them through physical activity, but it's not enough. It's frustrating that I meet interesting people while travelling, yet in my day to day life, I don't and I often feel excluded when I do. What is most despairing is I can't see what direction that I need to take, so rather than waste my energy, I'm tempted to give up. Compared to my peers, it feels much more onerous to accomplish things. Perhaps, they're just good at hiding it.
