Don't go out of this world a simp. Part of being a man is understanding and accepting reality along with its harsh truths. I've been in your position and trust me you're completely destroying your potential

You're a man , there's more to life than just women. Your mission , what you're passionate about is more important than some silly female . I too was in your position I found the redpill at a point when my mother was critically ill and I had lost my job and was kicked out of my house . I don't know you personally but I can tell you one thing that separates you from the rest is resilience . I applaude you for the strength and courage you've shown for reaching out for help . always know that you are not alone . You'll make it . Just swallow the pill. You're to pm me , I was once in your shoes

Red pill philosophy is a good beginners tool, but it doesn't tell the whole story. You have to live for yourself first, but only because that is more beneficial to others. In other words, you'll be more confident, trustworthy, and have the ability to affect others if you keep working at your own insecurities and challenging yourself. It seems paradoxical but it's the same concept as the love yourself before you can love others cliche.
You are nothing without others to influence, and anyone that tells you different is completely unaware of their own unconscious thought process. There are weak, suffering, lost people suffering everywhere on this planet at any given moment...including you. And they are looking for anyone or anything that can give them that comfort, validation, or ease their suffering. If you want to be a Chad, an artist, a Tibetan guru, it really doesn't make a shit. Just find the type of people you are most interested in (not just 1 person - that's how you get the dreaded oneitis), something you love to do, and focus on helping people with those tools you've learned.

the point of life is to have fun.

Everyone is missing his point. OP seems slightly unconcerned about women. You all say the focus is on the mission. He's asking - why?
OK - if not women, then what? The mission? But why the mission? What's the point of having a mission?
OP, you're essentially asking the ultimate (or one of the ultimate questions) - what is the point of life? What does it all mean?
Unfortunately, no one seems to know - but you don't have to kill yourself.
I've been in your shoes. I've read a lot of redpill literature, done some stuff, fucked yo a bunch , and yes, have seen nature, red, like it is - so I don't seek to dispute anyone or anything in particular.
I can, however, tell you what helped me.
Reading philosophy is almost therapeutic for this yearning, and I encourage you, in absense of any other outlet, to explore this avenue. I remember when I first had these questions - shortly after unplugging, but before finding this sub - I felt totally lost. Alone. Floating around. Some people think philosophically about things. Some just accept the way they are. Where to start? I recommend the ancient Greeks. Go in chronological order. A lot of it builds on what came before. You'll be happy to find that many others have grapppled with the same questions you do now, and some had some pretty ideas about what is actually going on with things.
Second, if you're feeling spiritually, look into meditation - or Buddhism. I feel it is very compatible with belief held on this sub.
The above two suggests are pretty much in line with thinking here.
If you're feeling bad now, I recommend you start watching Norm Macdonald shit on YouTube.
I don't think he's someone any redpiller should aspire to emulate, and I'll probably get hell for this, but I consider him to be at a level above most of the thinking here - while at the same time acknowledging these ideas on this sub very clearly if you're good at reading between the lines. Plus, Norm is the king, and he's like xanax to me.
Is in so hard to believe there is a higher reality than just being "redpilled"? Maybe of us believed our blue pill lifestyles were the end all be all of life when we were in it, although I was personally always a cynic and skeptical about everything.
Well, my gut - and I trust my gut - tells me to be skeptical about this shit, too, and I am. I only know the extent of my own ignorance.
Although, don't get me wrong, after the redpill goes down, you do get more chill about things. Don't get boxed in.
Learn to love asking questions, there are so many to be asked. Suicide is just saying you're done learning. Life is so short anyway, trust me.
Hang tight, friend.

I agree with this. OP is experiencing an existential depression which I felt quite strongly after truly absorbing trp. It all seems so shallow but certain philosophical videos on YouTube helped to talk me off the ledge. It was to the point where I was in panic every day and couldn't sleep and these videos truly were like xanax to me. They showed me peace and the error in thinking you've got it all figured out and it's all doom and hopelessness. After listening to them at night while feeling hopeless I would drift off to sleep peacefully and feel better and rested the next day. Eckhart tolle videos on YouTube may have saved my life

Even if it's all meaningless, you only have one life to live that you know of.
How long do you want to be dead?

This may get downvoted but I'm leaning strongly towards trying to seriously forge a relationship with god as the only thing which can give proper context to my life and turn it from despair into something to be proud of. Fuck formal religion, I'm not preaching that. But maybe god is possible to gain a relationship with.

Think of this whole little existence as a game. It's your world; everyone else is just an NPC, going about its loop.
Play whatever role you want.
Personally, I like the role of Conan. Seek to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

Not everyone is built to be an alpha. You guys need to get this through your skull.
You are genetically hardwired to put the needs of women before your own, and no matter how hard you try to suppress it, these instincts will ALWAYS take over if you have them.

From what I understand, you've made the first step: you changed your behaviour ("get into the red pill physical and public"), but now you feel like this step put you in an absurd position toward how you were raised and grew up... Now you have to take the second step, maybe the hardest one, and change your mind, you have to realise that you might have been tricked in the past but that it doesn't have to affect you in the future. From my experience, you swallowed the pill now you've got to "digest" it: i.e. let those ideas grow in your mind, rethink all your paradigms ! And don't forget as Valbuena_ said "there's more to life than just woman". You will make it, just give yourself some more time.

There was a great thread recently about this. Scroll down the main page.
Next time write your question better and head to asktrp

Just do it. Nike makes sense.
Absorb what you can and DO IT.

Hijacking this inflammatory comment to say this:
Let's say suicide is the best case scenario. Wouldn't you rather off yourself as the best person you can be rather than your measely current self?
