Unfortunately, I've had a disability for my entire life now, so much of my life was played on Veteran Mode. If this guy wants to complain that his (probably cushy, upper middle class, First World, white, male, teenaged) life is bad and he says we should all just quit, then he should tell that to my face. My parents and I didn't give up even when the doctors told my parents they should.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
