In this sub there is a lot of advice and discussion dealing with the ways life can bring you down. Whether you aren't getting the girls you want, feel lazy, unaccomplished, fat, cheated, whatever it may be at that moment, this sub really helps us men develop a relatively independent sense of self worth where we are capable of dealing with a lot of the negative things that happen in life.
Personally, finding TRP has really helped me gain a perspective so I can deal with the times life just isn't going my way. As we all know, don't worry about the things you can't control, just work on the things you can and your reaction when bad shit happens.
However, I think there is a difference between avoiding the lows and coming down off of a high, and I believe this sub may be missing out on a vital aspect of taking TRP, and that is dealing with success. Success is almost inevitable after taking and applying TRP, especially when the bar is set so low by some of us that are taking it. This new found success can easily get a person high, almost like a drug. Maybe you're doing things you never did before, making friends, going to parties, accomplishing goals in ways you never have in life and inevitably you will come down off that high.
Dealing with this come down and maintaining a realistic perspective on reality can be very important, especially for someone who isn't used to this kind of high. For me, I just had one of the most memorable and awesome weekends in awhile, and after returning to my normal life I felt almost depressed...no, definitely depressed. I don't necessarily think this is a bad thing, I think it's natural and perfectly reasonable. However, I think there is something to be said for discussing and learning how to deal with the "come down" that will happen from some of the inevitable success we who took TRP will have.
So, how do you deal with this? Do you feel this is something worth discussing? I'm very interested on what TRP has to say.
