The problem with his writing is he was unable to sufficiently extricate himself from his own depressive condition. It poisoned the well of his own creativity. He desperately tried to imagine an alternate perspective but failed and concluded that life was as boring as it felt to him, he was a slave to his own brain chemistry and chose to end it while he could.

Why he didn’t take whatever money he had from IJ and just take psychedelics all the time on a small farm is beyond me. I guess he felt so demoralised he lacked the will to attempt to motivate himself.

He, or the persona he is projecting, is confusing the desire for more life with the lack of leisure for reflection on it. It really doesn't work that way, though it is to be expected that those who set their lives at a pin's fee, whatever the cause of that, can get it wrong as he did, from which further blunders ensue.
