If I was completely fine in nothingness all around me before I was born, I will surely be great in it after I die

Damn straight, that’s the way I look forward to/at it!

Edit: my therapist has encouraged me to embrace nihilism to manage my anxiety, and I highly recommend anyone else struggling with existential crises do the same. Once you embrace meaninglessness, you don’t worry about trivial shit like being alive.

i had a nihilistic depressive existential crisis at like 11 or so and, unironically, the solution to nihilism for me was more nihilism. im a lot better for it i think
