When I was younger, nobody did as much for me as Noam Chomsky (information) and George Carlin (not going insane over said information) when it comes to these things, and both were way older than you are now.
I agree that there is a lot of potential and purity in youth, even in its follies. But I would like to point out that some people are kinda dead in spirit even when they're young, and some old people are rather lively up to the very point where they fall over and die... and urge you to not give up on yourself that easily. The very fact that you're this frustrated and outspoken means you ought not to. How alive you are is not JUST a function of your age. So stay alive, become more alive, pass it on and thanks.
