Are there any good books about feelings of worthlessness, self-hatred, despair, etc? I can't seem to find a way to put my feelings into words.

do things you respect for long enough and they will go away. there is the short version of every book on how to not feel that way. and as for the books which deal with them just on their own, the reason you feel that way is because you are not living a life you respect.

there's all the wisdom you need to read, the part that is actually hard is doing it. which is why you'll ignore this and believe that reading on it will help. it won't

I really don't care about self improvement, even if I should take my time to read books about it instead.

Im looking for a story which includes themes as i mention for simple "amusement", how weird it may sound. I don't know why, but i get really hooked on stuffs thats depressing and dark. books, movies & music etc
