I made a reddit account and then my life went to absolute shit for the next 12 years, drastically changed my productivity in college, ended up failing to get a job, got clinically depressed, encouraged me to come out and transition, horrible addiction, fucked up my sleep, and now I'm here.

I had signed up for reddit initially because I wanted to participate in a video game giveaway someone on the site was doing.

That's so sad, i hope you'll get better soon.

thanks. reddit really took a toll on my life but it also lead me towards getting medical help so that's something. just this massive impact from joining a social media site that I thought was a minor act lol.

Let’s hope kbin & lemmy will have the opposite effect:)
