Does anyone else get the impression that DFW would have been way less of a miserable cunt if he spent some time traveling the world, or ventured out into the wilderness occasionally?

This tbqh.

And if you're white and educated, you're pretty much already mentally deranged and in that constantly-complaining mindset.

i've done some travelling. while it's cool to get out of town, you're still just a turista staying for a few days or a week.

my long term goal is to live in different parts of the world for a year or so.

No. /pol/ebs are still mentally deranged and constantly complaining. Religion might have helped though.

not sure it would, since his negativity would probably taint everything he did. still, the exact time and place he lived in was probably shit for him, i think.

>>7451391
depression isn't necessarily chemical imbalance. most cases are treated with the same effectiveness or better with CBT (cock and ball torture). but yeah, just traveling probably wouldn't cure him.

Born to atheist parents, Wallace attempted to join the Catholic Church twice but "flunk[ed] the period of inquiry," and later attended a Mennonite church
