Maybe I am projecting, or misinterpreting because I lack context, but I actually find the quote posted by angrycoder to be (by Nietzsche's standards, anyway) rather uplifting, and not about absurdism or a fundamental lack of meaning in the world. My take on it is quite the opposite - that he was expressing something noble and almost 'hyperreal', namely the triumph of curiosity and exploration over the safe and familiar.

I may have totally missed the point, of course. Thanks for replying - I'll definitely check out your links.

I understand the Nietzsche quote but not how the one from Camus applies?

Aren't they talking about two very different things?

I'm sorry to hear about your current struggles, fwiw from an internet stranger, I wish you the best of luck.

I too suffer from pretty severe depression, and, like you, am going through a particularly acute bout at the moment. I'll likely be checking myself into a clinic at some point in the next 24 hours regardless, but I'd be really interested in hearing more about the 'mental safeguards' you mention in your first paragraph.
