Yup. I found 4chan like 13 years ago, right around when the “pools closed” thing happened. I was unhappy, dissatisfied with society, alienated from other people, and thought I was better than everyone else. Thats a dangerous combination, and I started off by trying to just be ‘edgy’ and shock people, but with increasing desensitization i shudder to think what might have happened if I hadn’t started smoking weed and talking to more people and eventually found psychedelics. I don’t cesdit drugs alone with getting me out but it definitely helped me relate to others and build a sense of empathy which allowed me to see through the (in retrospect) bullshit.
