somebody suggested I'm in the middle of an existential crisis. Just read my last post.

Camus is great if your life is free from suffering, sucks if it isn't. There's a reason poor people are more religious.

Also, look into Jungian myth analysis to get more out of stories than surface-level psychology.

Agree with your thoughts on Jung, disagree on Camus.
