I would know since I am one. I even frequently visit r/offmychest just to scroll by new and try to understand the human condition.
That is the lie I tell myself. It's sick. I'm sick. Even still I go peek back at them and just get lost in the raw emotion of it. There's a pureness to it. It's the nature of the subreddit to just go mask off and just let out what's been troubling them. No one can experience everything, the scope of one's day-to-day life can never allow it. But going there gives such a voyeur-like view.
I love that sub because onr post will br "i kulled my wife in 1970" snf the other will be "i piss in thr shower"
Have you taken a BPD test? People with that condition really love feeling feelings, and it doesn't matter too much if they're good or bad feelings. Not saying you are, it's not BPD until it rises to the level of a problem.
Haven't been for years but I could never tell how many posts on there are real anymore thanks to karma farming
I like doing the same as you though but on r/drugs, r/ilovedph, r/dph, r/datura, r/salvia
Far, far more intense than any confession, offmychest subreddit (for obvious reasons)
I find myself doing stuff like this too. But somehow I always feel gross and pull away from it after a few scrolls.
