Underground man is scaring me.
This is the first time I am reading dostoevsky, and I thought I should start from notes from underground. And I am relating way too much from him. The overthinking is getting worse after reading it. I am on chapter 3 of part 2, and everything thing he yapped about in 1st part and up until now is making too much sense. I wanna disagree with him, but as I keep reading, I am slowly realizing that I have been an underground man. I dont go outside much. I dont consider myself an introvert, but maybe part of me is just sick of people outside. The purpose of my post is to find out if this is normal? Did you also feel like you're an underground man? Is something wrong with me to relate to him, and does something need to be changed? Because I dont wanna wake up one day at 40 and feel as miserable as him. And as I keep relating with his words with each page, I turn the fear of becoming him at 40 keeps growing.
