Comment on Anon is a homebody

So many people in here are assuming the OP on 4chan is massively depressed and being carcastic about the “Yup life is good” comment. Kinda seems “extraversion-normativity” in here.
Yeah, that honestly sounds pretty good to me. I’m married, so I get plenty of social interaction between work and my wife, so that lifestyle would be great for me. In fact, I really enjoyed the COVID lockdowns because I was able to limit my socializing to a few video calls here and there.
Now that COVID lockdowns are a thing again, I’m constantly drained because it seems like everyone wants to go out and do stuff, when I’d like to just read a book or something.
It is seriously shocking how many assholes are posting here like the OPs life is something to pity and needs to change.
Literally the point of the post is to demonstrate this is a gigachad perspective.
Some of us don’t need constant external validation from people to avoid turning into a psychotic mentally ill mess.
Some of us ain’t as weak as y’all and would rather not interact with other people. Especially people like y’all who immediately assume everyone around you must change their lives to suit yours.
I would ask “who hurt you?” but solitude can be damaging for one’s mental health too. No, seriously, I get the point you want to make but not having talked to any other person for 4 years is not healthy either. It looks like you have internalized a lot of these things that you wrote about and the way you talk about them doesn’t look like you can find whatever you need too.
There isn’t medical professional on earth that would agree that 4 years, without human contact, is healthy.

Four years without contact from another human being is not healthy, doesn’t matter if you are an introvert.

Pretty sure that’s how we got the unibomber

I think that had more to do with the government intentionally breaking him, psychologically, as part of MK Ultra, while he was in college. The isolation probably did make it worse though.

I mean hiring a prosecutor from Boston to disagree and personally attack him definitely did not help
