Nihilism, solipsism, and a little bit of stoicism.

In my case I'd say promortalism which is the view that it's objectively preferable to cease existing under all circumstances, I believe that existence is nothing more than a futile and harmful burden with the less time spent suffering here, the better.

All that existence does is create problems there was never a need for in the first place, in fact I view existence itself as the true problem as if there was no existence there would be no suffering. Existence itself is ultimately responsible for all senseless cruelty and unneccessary suffering humans go through in the first place.

To me it only feels rational to find freedom from the ultimate cause of all harm, I see existence as undesirable in every way and I place value on the prevention of suffering. I only see non-existence as the perfect, ideal state and I believe the existence of life was just a horrific tragedy, I don't believe that existence was worth having in the first place, to me existence is better forgotten about and erased.

I think giving yourself any sort of specific label is silly. Every human has their own unique ideas and quirks that are specific to them and can't all be fitted neatly into some artificial ideology. Not to mention the fact that everyone has their own idea of what any given ideology means anyway, e.g., what socialism means to a conservative vs. a communist.

Pragmatism and objectivity are my standard go to along with a more morbid version of realism.

I'm probably closest to absurdism. As in- it's all riduculous but- seeing as that's difficult to live with, we all superimpose our own meanings.

I accept that I have zero control in my circumstances, and that this is just how I'm simply placed by life, way under the filter
and all I can do is to be the subject of it to walk on the path it has carve for me as time force push me, no, it's not me, I can't even move, it's time that move me

so, by that, what would be my philosophy perspective?

I recall there's a term for wanting all humans to simple all cease to be painlessly at the same time. I don't recall what ther term is.

probably depends on my mood and / or subject matter, can't really say I'm super consistent or live by any fixed principles
