   Since you mentioned "$100 Startup", she should read "The Art of Non-Conformity"

   One of the best books around.

   First off, good on you for sharing your feelings, it's very hard for many.

   Look it is your life, as much as people will say exercise, take anti-depressants, see a doctor, etc... remember that you have control of your own life and should live it how you want. You don't have to work at a boring job or be in a horrible city with nobody you know. Go somewhere where you will be happy; work somewhere where you will be happy; take yoga classes and meditation classes; if you can code, build amazing things, if not it is a great thing to learn; go to various meetups; pick up new hobbies, choose the life you want to live and relax.

   Life is beautiful, life is gracious, you just have to go and find what it is that makes you happy.

   Don't conform, do what you love and love what you do. I suggest reading The Art of Non-Conformity by Chris Guillebeau

   Stay Strong.

   >if it counts as non-fiction

   Barely, but I still think it's a great read. Along the same lines but less fiction is the art of non conformity, since it talks about a similar subject, without going too off-the-rails crazy.

   The Art of non conformity.

   But really, you can't "learn" this concept. You either live in fear for the rest of your life or u don't. U decide.
