>I just finished reading The Bell Jar and I have a few theories on her suicidal proclivities

THESE ARE HYPOTHESES, NOT THEORIES.


>It was the 1950s, arguably the most boring era in human existence, music and movies revolved around very strict and pre-defined genres, which didn't inspire the youth...

THAT IS YOUR ERRONEOUS OPINION, AND THE SAME COULD BE CLAIMED REGARDING ANY EPOCH'S «MAINSTREAM CULTURE», REGARDLESS OF WHETHER IT IS TRUE —THE NORM IS ALWAYS MEDIOCRE & MEDIOCRETIZING, BUT THAT DOES NOT ENTAIL THAT IT IS ESSENTIALLY BORING, OR «UNINSPIRING TO THE YOUTH» OF THE TIME.


>... and would explain why Sylvia, as a young girl, struggled with boredom and found everyone boring

DO NOT ATTRIBUTE THE PSYCHOLOGICAL MORBIDITY OF AN INDIVIDUAL TO THE ESTABLISHED SOCIETAL MORES.


>Her writing is anachronistic, in the sense that it's so relatable in 2021, and definitely way more than it was back in the 60s. She definitely didn't belong to that era, if she'd been born in the 80s and 90s, she would probably have blossomed into the person she was meant to be

1. EVERYONE BELONGS TO THEIR ERA.

2. YOU MEAN: «DIACHRONIC», NOT: «ANACHRONISTIC».

She mentions time and time again how she had trouble sleeping and concentrating, and I truly believe she suffered from a lack of melatonin, which might have actually triggered all the bad emotions in her life, that led to her feeling like she was stuck inside a bell jar


«DEPRESSION» IS ACTUALLY MELANCHOLIA; MELANCHOLIA HAS BEEN KNOWN & RECOGNIZED AS A CLINICAL DISEASE SINCE ANTIQUITY.


>Finally, she got pregnant and found herself trapped in a life she never wanted, she had an IQ of 160 and she had to resort to being a housewife at her peak, who wouldn't want to kill themselves ?

SOMEONE NOT ILL —ID EST: SANE.

COMIENZA CON LOS GRIEGOS, PROSIGUE CON LOS ROMANOS, TERMINA CON LOS HISPÁNICOS —TODO OTRO ES SUPERFLUO.

LE TENGO GUSTO A GEORG WILHELM FRIEDRICH HEGEL, PERO COMENZAR CON ÉL, O CON LOS ALEMANES EN GENERAL, ES COMO DESAYUNARSE CON DULCES, Y CON GOLOSINAS; COMENZAR CON LOS ANGLOSAJONES ES COMO DESAYUNARSE CON CIGARROS, Y CON CAFÉ FECAL.

EL NECIO LEE LIBROS; EL SABIO METABOLIZA LITERATURA.
