College Students 'Depressed' Over Brexit
"Constant sick feeling in my stomach"

Generation Snowflake is not exclusive to America -- it's very much a problem in other parts of the world too. Take the Brits, for example: ever since their countrymen voted to divorce the European Union, some U.K. college students have been whining of depression.
According to Breitbart London, Britain's best and brightest have been frequenting social media sites and chat rooms to lament their ailments, even going as far to say they can no longer perform well in school.
“Can I class Brexit as a traumatic event when I fail my exams next week? Because honestly, I’m so distracted now because of it?" posted one scholar on a Student Room thread under the title: "Does anyone else feel genuinely depressed about Brexit."
"Took about an hour for my hands to stop shaking, and for my knees to return to some semblance of working order after I saw the result this morning. How I managed to get through a regular day at work afterwards, I don’t even know," said user AngryJellyfish.
"It’s absolutely horrible, it doesn’t even feel real. I feel unwelcome in my own country," said another user.
Another one lamented the lost multiculturalism:
I’ve felt so down all day because of this, and just have this constant sick feeling in my stomach. I feel like I’m grieving for our growing economy. I’m grieving for our loss of cultural enrichment. If we weren’t a part of the EU I’d never have met people from the likes France, Norway, Germany, who have so much to offer to our country. We have so much to gain from these cultures
Others were more hostile:
I’m seriously ****ed off at this because we’re stuck with it. We’re past the point of no return, and we can never go back to what we’re about to lose… **** you, British public.
Many of Britain's younger generation have been flipping the middle finger to their older, wiser counterparts for voting "Leave." Only 36 percent of able-voting 18-25 year olds actually showed up to vote in the first place.
