i am 18 year old about to graduate highschool next month. almost every night ive been smoking weed to fall asleep, relying on medication to function and i stopped believing in the god i did for 18 years so i could commit suicide with no fear of an afterlife. books used to influence the way i viewed life so as my last resort i want to read something that will hopefully change my perspective so please feel free to share some recommendations.
some of my all time favourite books:
mere christianity (this book completely blew my mind)
brave new world
the great gatspy
the little prince

hey, i’m really glad you’re reaching out for something to read instead of giving up❤️
try “mans search for meaning” by viktor frankl, it’s short and honestly changed how a lot of people see hope when there’s none left.
Your list shows you’re drawn to books that really dig into what it means to be human and find purpose. Given where you’re at right now, maybe try “Man’s Search for Meaning” – it’s about finding reasons to keep going even when everything feels completely hopeless 💀 Also “The Stranger” might hit different since you’re questioning everything you used to believe
Hope you find what you’re looking for 🔥
