    Check out the book “man’s search for meaning”. It’s basically exactly what you are talking about written by a psychiatrist that was a prisoner in Auschwitz

      “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

      I haven’t read that book since high school. Probably about time to read it again.
