      Yeah it’s wild, I’ve had to learn that just because something seems exceptionally obvious to me doesn’t mean it’s at all obvious to others. There’s a lot of pressure to stay in these environments and it takes a LOT of self awareness to pull yourself out of it, if you can even detect that you are in fact in a situation that’s only making it worse. Like any addiction, it takes time, and it takes enough misery for you to take action. Hopefully by that point you haven’t etched a bunch of online nonsense on some bullets and murdered someone and instead went and touched some grass.
