This is just that Jordan Peterson book except without the 'stand up with your back straight' bit. I'd recommend purchasing a copy of that. Might solve all your problems in one go.

Well, crucially without the slippery evangelical spin.  It's possible for advice to be simply that, rather than a cult you have to subscribe to.

It doesn't really matter who provides the advice as long as the advice works and is beneficial. I've learned a lot of good things from Kerouac for instance but he was an alcoholic who died in front of the TV in his mum's living room in his 40s. His love of the world still inspires me.

Same here, but I think it's supposed to be daily rather than spread out across six months so I might have another go.

JBD going really impacted me as well. If anyone ever wants to just vent away at my inbox, I'd be happy to provide that service. I'm just some fucker on the internet so it's the equivalent of typing it all into MS notepad, except I'll respond back.

I've had my ups and downs, but have basically righted myself in the last few years without any kind of drugs or anything. I'm also not bald and do not have phimosis so reckon I'm doing better than most fuckers on here and would probably be considered enlightened.

This is my only genuine post on CaB without a knob gag or anything so please feel free to take advantage.

I'm with you on this. Not just his passing, which was awful, but the entire circumstances around it and leading up to it were just so utterly heartbreaking. It's hard to get over the cruelty that some people are capable of when it comes to their children.

Have you seeked out any philosophy at all? The hedonic adapter culture within we writhe isn't necessarily how we should all live of course. The Greeks and Romans had thousands of years of civilization to think about this stuff and it's basically out of the window now.

Tried all that.

It's not to 'try', it's an every day routine which doesn't have immediate results and is no silver bullet
