Our culture has a really weird trend of just inching around major life issues instead of directly confronting it. I know reddit isn't exactly the best thing to hold up as an example of society as a whole. But it's just crazy how often you can see people nail down the biggest issue in their life. Often stuff that is outright destroying it. And then have them show total lack of interest in actually pushing past it. At most they'll just want to "work on it". With no set measures in place to judge whether or not they're making progress, or even intent to judge whether something is providing real progress or not in the first place.
