Do most people here identify with the youth in this book, his latent self-hatred, pessimistic outlook on life, wish to be special and gifted, making excuses for one's failures?
I'd like to feel okay and stop being so self-obsessed, who are some other authors worth delving into?

That title sounds extremely cringe and faggy. Read Self-Reliance by Emerson, soifag.

Sounds like a self-help book.
Butterfly what do you think of Emerson? Do you know that Nietzsche was a fan of his?

And here we have it. No courage. Just groupthink *cringe*. “What if they post an ugly picture?”

That book launched me into Alfred Adler, but then I quickly turned to Freud. So, I'd say start with this if you want to save yourself some time.

You really can make anything sound positive by adding the word "courage" to it.
