Notwithstanding.. that all: if a one can find Freak-o's sometime link to above, I'll go with Rajan's careful and pellucid overview, for the nonce.

My aunt, full into senescence had stated to (RN-in-charge, a family-member-whom I had appointed, moi as Executor and also her Guardian):

I don't know Who I am
I don't know Where I am
There's no place I want to go
There's nothing I want to do


..I'm not making this up; L. immediately wrote it down (and likely couldn't have assembled the thoughts ..so pellucidly, anyway)

Sometimes I wonder how many? 'adults' walk around with a scripted façade/masque ...
in very-near that mind-state :-/ Then: 'vote'. :-/ :-/
'Econ'-omists too?? {ulp}
