atleast u got a shiny name now
but jokes aside, yes this forum is in fact bad for mental health
I guess
ive never understood when people say the forum damaged their mental health. Forgive me if im not being empathic enough but in what way is it doing that?
Yeah, I’m widely regarded as good looking by basically everyone I know. Especially those who knew me before I started this journey. Problem is though, and my best friend pointed it out perfectly. He told me that now I “deep everything. You take things too literally. You’re always in your own head. You were better off just hitting gym like you used to.” And honestly when it comes down to my mental and my personality he’s not wrong at all. I’m just as unhappy as I was when I started. Who gaf that I get tinder likes now woahh. I’m insecure as shit. I need reassurance all the time. Ascending just made things worse. Sorry if this is long.
Constantly worrying about maintaining looks. Comparing myself to literal PSL Gods on a regular. The standard of what’s regarded as “good looking” is much higher here than it is IRL or normie spaces, even if you’re good looking it doesn’t feel enough
I guess it comes down to the balance between improving your looks significantly enough that it has a genuine positive impact in your quality of life (not only romantically, sure that’s nice but it’s one aspect) and not spending so much time in the space and thinking too hard about the topic that it ruins your perceptioj of how things happen irl
Reading it all bud
self conscious abt looks
I guarantee you I’m better looking then you are
Good for you man
Ahhh u must be going through it fr. Sorry I was just joking. Hope u feel better
Tbh I understand that feeling very well. Maybe because I went through it earlier in life it doesnt affect me anymore. Whats best is probably just disconnecting your face from the forums. I get that you need validation, but what other reason do you have? Its not like youll need much more advice. Once you havent posted in a while that high need of validation and confirmation is gonna go down and what you get from irl interactions will meet your standards alone.
You’re right. I think I’m just gonna lurk in general. I’ve said all that I’ve needed to say here. What’s left is just me needing some dopamine. Thanks, ghoultune
