    There’s nothing wrong with being a doomer. I am. I own it. The image created of doomers by deniers is sensationalized to keep us from addressing climate change. Sorry you fell into the occult. Glad you made it through.

      The study of the occult eventually led me to analytical psychology, which changed my life. So, it turns out it wasn’t all that bad of a journey.

        Is there anything in psychology that might help us deal with existential dread? I’ve found philosophy has helped me tremendously. Particularly, Albert Camus and Absurdism.

          I found Jung’s archetypes were pretty soothing to study. They really give insight into human communication and history. If you can find “Man and his Symbols” in color hardback, it’s an amazing read. It’s also a great way to dip your toes into Jung’s writings, without going too heavy too soon.

          I think it helps to realize that we will die either way. Maybe in a decade or two being unable to afford food or some climate catastrophe. Maybe later. Maybe tomorrow a car hits us deadly.

          We will die and we don’t know when and how, so try to make the best out of every day and try to be nice to others.

          Furthermore fairness is a human concept, we can never count on it.
