How do you cope with the inevitability of death?

I'm a high school senior (don't worry I turned 18 at the start of the month) and I'm worried for my future.

I'm failing college classes right now because I'm lazy. I'm despondent. I'm worried about my future. I don't trust my mother and I haven't seen my father in six years. My lack of experience with girls makes me feel immature. I feel painfully average, I score average on every test. I'm worried I have no talent. I need help from an adult but I don't have any proper role models in my life. I'm seeing a therapist but he's actually useless. He just tells me thins will be fine. At my last session he spent 30 minutes talking about his trip to europe when all I wanted to do was discuss my anxieties. I also don't have any friends to voice my insecurities and fears too, so that's why I'm venting them here.

what if I have no company?

I've kinda wondered how many things would be mythological if we describe them to people from the past

>Tiny little beings causing disease
>India being used to be island and colliding with Asia, creating Himalayas
etc
>We all came from suns some way

I know why people like that exist. You actually feel more comfort by believing those stuff. You want to feel special. You want answers to why the world is so fucked up, and why your life is so miserable. So you blame everything on something, which provides answers. If there are answers, perhaps it could be stopped, you think. Then you go out and call everyone else a blind fool (instead of actually doing something to fix the world), so you can feel a bit more special and important to everyone else. You know what's scarier for them? Nothing being in control.

Nothing is happening.

Ever

Yeah, it's pretty good. Watchmen and V for Vendetta are the only comics I ever bothered to read,(outside of Donald Duck when I was a kid), so I don't have much to compare them to.

What books will make me not feel anymore?

Stop posting these pictures on blue boards, it triggers me.

I'm from the rural South, lots of ugly and overweight men who seem like brainlets to me still have wives and families. Tinder and other parts of social culture in the West have made the dating atmosphere more Darwinian, but age WILL catch up with these women. You might have to settle for someone who's already been dicked down, but unless you're a Chad you'll have to compromise, or just accept the "die alone" meme. Also, try and detox from 4chan, it will only continue to castrate your social skills and make you bitter.

I don't have a pet.

I once had at various times a lizard, two hermit crabs, two cats, a rabbit and a fish. They all died.

How do you think of a good story? Does it just come to you or does it take a lot of brainstorming?
