Camus has his virtues. I would not, however, look to him for philosophical guidance.
“There is only one really serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide,” is hardly a statement indicative of a sound disposition.

Yes and no. The framing implies the answer and is fully in keeping with Camus's brand of admirably droll epicureanism.
Try to imagine a parallel in your own personal sphere. If a friend or loved one came to you and declared their intention to think of a reason not to kill themselves, would you see it as sign of philosophical depth?
