I like your writing style! And I find this zine really pretty :)
I'm probably more of neurotypical kind of guy. I was touched to read your thoughts on this "liberating nihilism". It also feels quite unfair to me that some people have to battle more than others with dark thoughts :(
I can connect with one thing: when I was a kid, I remember that for some time, at night in my bed, I was worrying about "what if" scenarios. I don't recall exactly those, but I think they were like "what if this kid does not like me anymore", or "what if someone in my family dies". And I recall distinclty that I felt really relieved when, at some point, I decided to really face those scenarios and imagine in my mind what would happen then. And I remember realizing that whatever would happen, even he saddest thing, life would still go on. I guess it's some kind of "optimistic nihilism" :)
Anyway, I wish you all the best with your writing!
Also, you made me discover ONSIND, thanks for that.
