This is just a quick rant about time the time I've lost to RP/BP.

As someone who has just emerged from several years' worth of TRP related depression, I cant help but be bitter that most people seemingly avoid this entire stage altogether, whereas I lost around 7 years of my life to this depression.

On the upside, at 18 I've now finally sorted myself out mentally, as well as being well on the way to getting where I want to be socially and physically. However, I do have the nagging feeling that this entire encounter with Rep Pill/Black Pill was just completely unnecessary and has deprived me of my entire teenagehood. I know i shouldn't ruminate on it, but i hate myself for all the lost time and experiences over this last half decade and wish I had avoided it. I spent the entire time in school or my room and had very few platonic relationships and 0 romantic ones. I know this might sound pathetic, but it's a real kick in the guts knowing that others my age had spent the time socialising, going to festivals and having their first relationships etc, while I was just sitting on the damn computer wasting the prime of my life away,

But on a closing note, I've just finished high scool, I've finally rid myself of this scourge, and after some stuttering I've kicked my life into gear.

The only way is up.
