Be me 7 years ago:>NEET>no friends or gf>blackpilled and suicidal robot incel>lurking every day for yearsFast forward to 2026:>have an apartment>have gf and friends>have hobbies that don't include being retarded or racist>actually not as depressedI've gained so much insight and empathy for myself and others and a side effect is being liked by people and getting a gf. Stop falling for redpill and blackpill progaganda. It's poisoning your brain.I came back here temporarily just to spread hope. If you were waiting for a sign to leave 4chan this is it. I guess I'll hop online when I wake up if anyone has any questions.Pic unrelated.
>>83701772most of the people posting here are giga normies that already have all that stuff, i can tell you haven't been here for 7 years
>>83701772>7 years ago was 2019
>>83701772what about if I used sfw boards that match my interests. I already barely come to r9k but surely any of the hobby boards should be fine
>>83701772how do I stop coming back? I'm extremely addicted
Lol yeah bro look where your advice brought you back to. If you were smart, you'd remain your blackpill knowledge while being in a relationship. By choosing to ignore the blackpill and forgetting where you were all those years ago, you're in for a rude awakening. You can ignore reality but it won't ignore you and the blackpill always comes to collect.
>>83701772I like 4chan.
>>83701772i haven't left for more than a year at a time, and since i've been on 4chan i have always had a job, had a gf about a third of the time, and my current gf i met here. I've never been blackpilled or suicidal, and I don't lurk, I reply to threads. I posted on /r9k/ the day my first home purchase closed, and I have hobbies besides coming on here. I don't think quitting 4chan for good would change my life that significantly, but good for you anon, i'm glad you improved your life. But did you actually leave? You're here right now, aren't you? I was here when you left. I remember the post you made saying "I'm leaving 4chan for good" and I replied to that thread: "I'll be waiting for you to come back, faggot" Guess I was right.
>>83701780Fair enough man. I guess I'm just posting in case someone's in the same situation I was back then>>83701796If they're like I remember then it's best to find an alternative. /v/ is sfw (i assume) and I remember it completely misleading me with gamergate and awful opinions. I guarantee there are better forums out there. Consider plebbit as an option.>>83701805I replaced my addiction with youtube videos and normie forums. Nowadays there's so many good channels you can't go wrong. Avoid bitter, conservative-coded ones though.>>83701821I do miss those bait reaction pics with fish in them. Would be nice to use one here.
You can still go to 4chan but it will increasingly become more boring unrelatable, and unserious as you mature. A huge chunk of people here think 4chan actually has some relevance in the real world and haven't moved on since 2016 or maybe 2020.
>>83701852Glad it's working out for you, man. I appreciate the piece of creative writing but I don't feel any gravitational pull to this place anymore. And there was no dramatic departure on my part.
>>83701901True. You tend to grow out of it

Hey all, OP here. I'm trans btw
>>83701772I've been away from 4chan periodically. I guess I feel a little better but ultimately it doesn't change anything, the world still hates me and wants me to suffer.
You're a shill and unless you clarify step by step how you became a homeowner and established a circle of friends as an adult, then you're just lying.
>>83701772>stop hanging out around extremely mentally ill people>feel betterWauAmazing.
