I’ve spent enough time outside of this forum to realize that the world is, in fact, beautiful. Everything in nature is alive, and our time here is finite. Since I started eating clean, interacting more with people, getting enough sleep, and detoxing from various substances, I’ve come to see just how fleeting and superficial many things can be. People who were dealt worse cards than you are enjoying life at this very moment.
Self-isolation, drug abuse, and a trash diet are the recipe for a painful existence.
I was diagnosed with depression as a child. I identified with it and let it define me for several years. Now, I’m breaking the cycle, and so can you. It’s not just your looks; it’s the context you were placed in. Chasing hookups with random mentally ill girls will never give you the fulfillment you crave, you need real human connection.
I’ve experienced life as both average-looking and above-average-looking, and I’ve learned that validation is just another form of addiction. It loses its effect over time, and you end up needing more and more to feel the same. Casual sex with someone you don’t care about is essentially the same as masturbation, just with extra steps.
I genuinely believe most people here are good at heart, just like many others I’ve met in real life—kind and supportive, even without knowing your name. Yes, there are trolls, but that’s true of any place with minimal moderation. I think 90% of you are just lost, facing your own struggles, trying to figure out life. We’re all doing our best in our own way.
Of course, this isn't rage-inducing or spreading negativity, so it will likely be either hated or ignored. But younger me would have appreciated reading this, so I'm pressing send anyway and logging off right after. Not that you actually need to read this to find any answers; everything is already within you, just listen to your heart.
My favorite conspiracy theory is that everyone here will eventually find their path and live happy lives.
