I thought this was supposed to be deeply terrifying instead I found it to be just “eh”

I locked myself in my room and nobody hears my screaming. It is so facsinitating and also disturbing that both zelous victory and the most horrifying reality can come from the same place. Even when hopelessnes has eaten away at a soul there is still a glimpse of humanity. What even is meaningful action why do we do good or bad things, these questions I think an AI can and will be able to comprehend and utilise, but an individual can lack the understanding. Nihilism exists to answer a question that has no answer a question that is meaningless as is the answer to it. Why do I have to exist and why can't I end it myself, why do I want my existence to finish so abruptly and why can't I do anything to halt it? I live in eternal self-isolation and nobody understands my loathing.
