I think it's a big mistake for young people (like my former self) to take deeply unhappy 20th century authors like DFW, Bukowski, Hunter S. Thompson too much to heart.
Yes, they did have important things to say, and yes, it wasn't their fault that they were so unhappy, but you should never try to be like them.
