Books to cope with being so intelligent (I have nothing to show for it because i'm smart but lazy, but success is evil and/or cope so i wouldn't want it anyways) that i can't cope, and it makes me SAD? I HATE my cushy 1st World life and my parents who want me to WORK

There is literally nothing bad or wrong about coping. Coping is the most essential part of being human otherwise we couldn't bear living our pointless lives
