Have you read Choke? I liked it, along with his other books. I agree with you: when I read Pahlaniuk, I always feel different...typically a lot happier that I am not one of his characters.
Another author I like is Nick Hornby. Though not as dark as Pahlaniuk, I think he has a way of capturing the weird side of people in his books. High Fidelity was my favorite book by Hornby.
