idk senpai, there isn't much wrong with my life desu.
>Not anxious, can talk to people OK enough for the most part.
>Not depressed, been on normiepills (zoloft) for a year or so now and I don't think about the bad thoughts much anymore
>Doing good in school now, after a few months of NEET from bad drug abuse
>Relationship with parents is pretty great
I don't go out ever, but that's because I genuinely enjoy staying in and working on my hobbies (music, vidya, cooking, etc.). While I can talk to people, it really isn't a joy or anything, and for the most part social events are just boring to me so I don't bother with them. I'm for the most part comfortable being around myself.
yet here I am, still on r9k after all these years. I suppose I feel some lonliness in the >tfwnogf department. But socializing is still too much of a slog to make me really make an effort to get one.
Why can't I leave?
You're bored and without focus. As am I.

You don't want to be an adult because it sucks.

nah not necessarily without focus. I mean, I genuinely enjoy school (CompSci) and am excited for the future career wise (but at the same time cautious, but that's everyone going to school this day and age).
Bored? Well that's debatable. I'm always excited for vidya desu, plus a little bit of beer and grass never hurt anyone; and I genuinely enjoy my comfy lifestyle. I guess maybe the lack of some companionship is making it seem that way, but again man what a drag. Maybe I just need a doggo.

No I mean you're bored and without focus at this moment, when you're on 4chan. Not in life.
Google Erikson's stages of psychosocial development.
somewhere along the way you've been fucked up so you can't move on normally through stages.
This is a good explanation of the FAs in 4chan btw.
Once people have established their identities, they are ready to make long-term commitments to others. They become capable of forming intimate reciprocal relationships (close friendship or marriage) and willingly make the sacrifices and compromises that relationships require. If people cannot form these intimate relationships - perhaps because of their own needs - a sense of isolation may result, arousing feelings of darkness and angst.
Because people failed to establish these connections in real life, they establish a connection to a community, 4chan. as a result, they no longer need it as much, but it still creates a lingering frustration within them.
