i have become deeply cynical, disturbed and jaded. everything nice seems naive, irrational or deluded.

im not claiming to be the ultimate rational thinker, but within my thoughts i cannot find where i am wrong. but the thought of going to a state of knowingly-irrational complacency is even more depressing than my current state. at least being sad identifies that things are bad.

"a critique of pure reason" has an attractive title to me for this reason but i am no philosopher and havent ever read philosophy

is this the wrong book to read for insight on this

is this worth reading or should i just stop being a colossal faggot

The book definitely has nothing to do with what you think it does.

If you're looking for something quick, take a look at Epictetus. Otherwise consult charts on the /lit/ wiki about philosophy if you're gonna go full swing
