A psychological condition in which a person develops the feeling of not being part of the everyday world, and behaves as though they do not have any supporting social or moral framework.<\/p>\n
Feeling of isolation, anxiety, or disorientation from any norms (considered by some as a major cause of suicide).<\/p>\n
Social or personal instability or purposelessness caused by a decline in standards and values. From the Greek words meaning “without” and “law”.<\/p>\n
