A longing — not for death, but for the desired feeling of temporarily ceasing to exist: to disappear, to fade into a state of unconscious being, detached from consciousness itself and the burdens of reality.

Get the Adolescence mug.This refers to the prolonged life stage between teenager and adult, that Millennials born 1990 or after has always been experiencing. This life stage is mainly caused by the generational inability for anyone born 1990 or after to become full-grown adult (e.g. due to the inability to afford moving out from parents' house, or due to the inability to afford starting a family), which works pretty much in the similar way to the New Zealand generational ban on smoking for anyone born 2008 or after.
With all the financial pressures on Millennials, extended adolescence has become the norm; it's hard to feel like an adult when you're still living at your parents' house, unable to start your own family, and not done with figuring things out yet!
