I've fallen once again into a depression that I don't think I will recover from. Not only am I able to contend with existential nihilism; the suffering which has come to characterise my life makes life seem unreasonable to continue. How am I supposed to develop an ideology that doesn't instantly jump out to me as a massive cope? I can't hurt my parents by killing myself. Is there a book that deals with this?

>> No.14466030

Believing that you need some absolute to justify the enjoyability of going out and making money, fucking women, and generally dominating other human beings is a cope.

Nihilism is an ideology. Whether nihilism has a positive or negative psychological effect, is mostly a result of your already existing mental state. You're right that something like >>14466036 would be a cope, but that doesnt make it useless. Honestly, I don't think its necessary. More likely than not is your depressive nihilism not hinging on ideology, but on underlying mental factors. Trying to get your life in order, then getting a psychologist/psychiatrist to prescribe you drugs, is likely to, if not change your current ideological outlook, change your interpretation/perspective on it, to a more positive one.

i didn't say that right, of course i believe a decent percentage of people here are able to land a job and maybe get a gf, but it's a lot harder for us i feel like. i think almost anyone here who's over 20 has something that prevents them from experiencing meaningful interaction with the real world.

You have to take the proper existentialism pill from Kierkegaard and Nietzsche.

just wait, youre being kind of arrogant and egotistical thinking you know whats best for you, killing yourself, such a radical decision similar to what bin laden did, and fuck that guy, fuck. It'd be radical if you became a struggling rapper no matter how cringe. Become a rapper, do something positive if youre going to be radical.
