The most that i've suffered from is lethargy, apathy, depression and ignorance. plus an overburdened mind. I never languished in the way most people envision suffering.
You have some sloppy lack of capitalization here... and the sentence about languishing is hard to understand... I think it needs to say:
I never languished with the kind of "suffering" most people envision when they think of the word.
Since you're a normal rich white dude,
He is not a normal rich white dude... he is an introspective rich white dude. It is cool to recognize how one's good fortune has kept him in the dark. That is what happened to Prince Siddhartha, and the result was pretty influential!
My generation never faced a war.
Not exactly true... perhaps never been on the actual battlefield... but a lot is happening right now, so who knows what might happen!
Anyway, it is good to recognize the fact that you have not struggled. Take away some of the less interesting examples, and make room for more discussion of what you're describing at the end of the essay!
Also, a good concept to include might be this: A rich white kid has no excuse to not struggle and suffer. If you are not struggling and suffering, you are not doing much to contribute to the alleviation of others' suffering. You can share as much of others' burdens as you are willing to bear, and maybe that will influence your career decisions.
