I'm already quite aware that writing won't cure me of my ailment.

Go for it, friendo. I started writing a few months ago to deal with mental illness. I wrapped up my symptoms as a single syndrome and started writing a soft sci-fi novel about them being the effect of a new virus. I'll probably never finish the novel, let alone release it, but it's been cathartic. I actually feel much better for it. Probably the same effect as talking through them with a therapist, minus the part where you line their pockets with thousands of dollars.

Haha, if I had thousands of dollars to give a therapist I probably wouldn't have declining mental health

All the more reason to write a novel.

I'd say go for it. I wouldn't fully recommend running away from all other responsibilities to do so but it is a good idea to at least try.

> being this much of a dipshit
Its been proven that getting a job and partaking in outside life will improve your self-esteem. so if your a NEET I highly recommend you try and get a job. it might make you less of a self loathing cunt. Another thing to keep in mind that if you do have really low self-esteem to the point of depression you can't be picky about what job you get just getting one is the most important thing.

My favorite part is the eyes on the woman, just staring into the abyss of the guy's taint
