If you want an existentialist balancing-out book, I’d recommend Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. His entire philosophy of “logotherapy” is based on the idea that finding meaning is a form of therapy to help the human mind deal with the inherent chaos of the world. He formed this idea in Auschwitz.

EDIT: My first gilded comment, and I’m so happy it’s for this book! Thank you so much, kind stranger.

I really like the way he words this.
