>>395362I feel like that's a cope. A good cope, but still a cope
>>395335Really, when I say leave I mean don't just spend all your time hanging around on 4chan. Do other things and read other material or pick up a hobby so you won't look back on your time years down the road and go "all those days I spent on 4chan/playing vidya/whatever, those are days I'll never get back. I had free time then and I didn't even know it."
I did not, and I really squandered my highschool and college years as a result. And honestly some communities you should drop entirely if you go to them (read: r9k) because they'll just lower your mood and make you feel miserable. The amount of time you have now (assuming you're in college/CC) is more than you will ever have in the future and it is so much easier to try new things or learn new skills while you still have some brain plasticity.
It's good to have a variety of interests, you'll have more things to relate to normies with (eg lets face it, girls like koopa are the extreme minority so you'll want to appeal to a wider range so you don't wind up old and alone), and youll honestly just have a richer life for it.
