I want to die, I have no reason to live if I do not achieve what I want - fame and power, because it's the only way to live nowadays
And nah, forget about mediocracy, I don't want any of it
I want the meaning, the purpose.
You think I can earn it because I want it? Think again, I can't, my ex therapist has forbidden it and I have not been strong enough to filter his offense
See? That's my problem. You're gonna say "get help" at this point I assume. Well don't bother because this advice is too obvious
Yes I view life rigidly and nothing will change it for it will render me powerless. It's either great fulfillment or death for me

To me, that bit in bold is key - if there is a purpose to existence, then surely, it's the quest for those 2 things. As far as I can tell, going on is the only route available to me that can potentially give me that - even if there are times when they seem like very distant goals. I've also found that my concepts of what I consider fulfilling & worthy achievements have evolved considerably over time - what was once important has become secondary & vice-versa.
