How do I not drink

I feel like my blood is on fire with anxiousness and the only thing that can put it out is alcohol

When you know it's over, there is no book. If your parents cursed you with bad genes; if you have autism, are ugly or short; if you're an idiot, you are effectively and practically invisible. People who haven't yet experienced what it is to be truly lost will try to delude you into thinking that there's still a chance for you to improve even when you're 26 and balding and have no friends or prospects. They'll tell you to work out, go to bars, join groups, and when those inevitably don't work because you're awkward, autistic, and unattractive, they'll say either you weren't trying hard enough or that things will get better (when? what things? how?) or there's Christ if you like or some other platitudinous bullshit. This will go on forever until you die.

But if you're so inclined to wallow in and dive completely into misery, I've been reading Ligotti and will probably move on to Schopenhauer; this after trying to find God through Hegel and Kierkegaard. Best wishes to you: at least it ends eventually.
