I changed so much I wouldn't even be able to communicate with my friends if I didn't present another narrative/persona to them.
It was hard at the beggining but now it's almost natural and it's how I got over my anxiety.
If not for imageboards which practically changed my sexuality I probably would have been married by now with kids and god I do not want that life.
I'm in a shitty place but it's the only road I can take that won't leave me hanging by the noose in a few years.
Getting a fucking small doggo really improved my life quallity.
Overall I think imageboards have a positive influence, the only problem I see is the isolation that comes with it.
Since this thread is about imageboards am I the only one that wishes 4chan would die ? I want to see it replaced by something better. Some boards have really stagnated.
