Is all this red pill shit I’ve “ingested” the reason I have such low self esteem and confidence?

Chances are you ingested it when you were still developing emotionally and the ideology exploited your insecurities.

People think that by “knowing the truth” that they are superior but it just makes them feel like they will never get someone. The reality is that you will still get what you want. You just need to believe in yourself ❤️

Focus on you outside of relationships. What makes you feel happy? Do that. Take care of yourself. Eat right hit the gym get a good skin care routine. Pick up 3 hobbies.

And filter the content you consume. Remove social media for at least a month if you have to. Focus on YOUR happiness. Don’t go looking for validation and approval.

I think you had low self esteem to start and it lead you to consume red pill content.

Red pill just capitalizes on it and makes you feel worse about yourself. If you felt good about yourself you wouldn't seek out content like that if you did.

It's a horrible world view. Course it take a toll. The further you get to normal life again the better you'll feel :)

I don't know you so I can't say. Probably you have low self esteem and confidence first though, which is often the case with people who end up falling into the red pill rabbit hole. But it certainly doesn't help, it just gets you stuck in a cycle.

Yeah. Maybe you probably had low self esteem but it got worse. At least that's what happened to me

Encountering people with grandiose delusions kind of does that to a person.

When you have a group telling you that you have to be X, Y, and Z to be "worthy enough", why wouldn't you have issues with your self-esteem? Mine was actually decent before meeting my Red Pillers and it plummeted just being around them and being friends with them. They'll never think you're enough by yourself. That gets exhausting.

Red pill content tends to propagate the myth that you need to do an extreme amount of self-improvement to be successful in dating. But the reality is the vast majority of guys get into relationships and do very little self-improvement. The red pill also doesn't teach any strategies to do this massive self-improvement so most people predictably fail at it and feel bad about themselves.

it promotes that you will never be good enough as you are and you need to IMPROVE IMPROVE IMPROVE

Yes. Kids always feel normal insecurities in highschool and college. But as you grow up it fades away and you gain confidence and live a normal life. But red pill will grow this negativity and continue it into your adulthood.

Duh.

You are what you think you are... And that is the ultimate truth.

I don't know if it's the entire reason but it's certainly part of the reason.

incredulitor · 2023-03-11T17:48:36+00:00

It probably didn't help. Self-esteem and confidence are responsive to all kinds of stuff, good and bad. What else do you think contributes to it?
