Dealing with Red Pill Rage

[AnthonyParticipant 241]

Was wondering, how do you guys end up dealing with the rage after becoming MGTOW? Most of the time, I’m contempt in my thoughts and society as a whole. But, every now and then, something just f~~~s with me the wrong way and it’s like my anger can’t be calmed unless I take a nap.

This usually only happens when I’m extremely stressed out or when I’m worrying about finances though.

“This too shall pass.”

Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?

I rage. I read. I meditate,
I rage some more
We, as men, are programmed by society to hold everything in.
When it becomes to much for me, I go to nature, The forest and mountains are a comfort for me.
I rage in the wild, where I am free to be who and what I am.
What passes as humanity is safe from me, as I am from them.
I seriously cant advise anyone to do the same.
All you need to do is find your safe spot, where you are most at ease.
Rage there, in comfort and in safety for self and soul.
Every man has his own spot, sometimes it is a place so close as a closet.
I am in no position to judge where a man bares his soul or rage, unless it hurts a truly innocent soul

There was a time in my life when I gave a fuck. Now you have to pay ME for it

I don’t know your particular circumstances, I started in my red pill knowledge in August and feel the rage stage is past but it differs for everyone. I feel content with my life and the direction I am going. Will I occasionally have a down moment in the future? I am sure I will, but that is the great thing about this website and the gentlemen on here, we help each other out.

RoyDal and Grumpy are spot on, I found that the rage passes with time. I found channeling that energy into other things such as exercising, focusing on the ideas and hobbies I had passion about helped out. Try to learn to forgive not forget those who hurt you not for them but for yourself. Let’s face it those who hurt you probably don’t care because they are in their own world.

There’s never an easy answer to those questions. What works for one guy does not work for another.
I have been fortunate that I’ve had many ways to distract myself when red mist appeared.

However, at times those distractions were not at hand so to speak, so, I found a way to deal with it.
In 1987 I had a mishap at a motor racing meet where a couple of drops of avgas/aviation gasoline from my racing car
dropped into my ear. Needles to say It hurt a s~~~ load for about 24 hours, but the ear was damaged forever.

I’ve has Tinnitus ever since. Ceaseless ringing in my ears.
After a few years of searching for a cure and contemplating surgery, I came across an article in a athletics sports magazine.
It was about chronic pain & nerve pain. Instructions were very simple . . ” learn to love your pain “
It worked for me. The same method can and is applied for tension, anxiety and anger.
Maybe it will work for you.

Read Pema Chodron’s “When things fall apart”. I’d also recommend you to read “The Art of Mindfulness”. Additionally, enrich your mind with the ideas of the brightest philosophers on earth, and read “Beyond good and evil” by Nietzsche, as well as Schopenhauer’s philosophy.

This will give you a lot of perspective on the world and reality. It will also help you overcome the anger you are feeling at the moment.

I never really had much of a rage period. Although I was somewhat fortunate enough to have somewhat internalized the redpill when I was a small child. I think it really has to do with how long you held onto bluepill beliefs. It could be something similar to how they say it takes half as long as the relationship was to get over the ex.

Nirvanna is never having to worry about a woman ever again.

Totally agree.

Well thanks for the advice guys. Most of the time, I’m never in red pill rage mode. But sometimes, I get to the point of where I hate society as it is and just wanna be left alone. Sometimes, like if I see a clip on Youtube (like if I’m watching vids criticizing dumb feminists) it sometimes hits me the wrong way and I either have to take a nap or focus on something else.

I noticed this mostly happens when I’m tired as f~~~ or for the other reasons I stated. Maybe I should just avoid watching those vids at night.

You’ll get over it It just takes time.

There was a great post on another forum but i can’t find it right now. The basic jist of it was that a lot of red pill rage comes from the individual being forced to re-evaulate his own self beliefs about the world and how he interacts with it. For the most part, Red Pill rage isn’t about how s~~~ty the world treats men – although it may begin that way, but in how you as an individual have been systematically lied to about your place in life and how easily you’ve been misled.

In essence, it’s about shedding your own ego of yourself and this can be a difficult process because it’s like stripping away a chunk of your own personality. There’s a lot of neural connections that need to be re-wired in your brain and this can take some time and pain in the process.

You will get more clarity once the negative emotions subside and you’ll be better equipped to deal with reality as it is and make more informed choices regarding your day to day interactions because of it.

I still get the odd flare ups now, but i’m no-where near as bad as i was when i was raging.

I think part of it is that also. I’ve been a tradcon/white knight most of my life up until a few months ago. I’m even having to be careful around women in my family that if they knew I were MGTOW, would go apes~~~ on me. Takes a little bit to get used to I guess.

Yeah, most of my personality up until about 5 months ago, I was a total white knight. I still even relate to certain anime characters who are white knights, but now, I know they’re only white knights in those shows because NAWALTs only exist in works of fiction.

I’ve gotten over most of the red pill rage, but seeing as how I still get angry about it every now and then, there’s still a part of me that’s having a hard time accepting it. Like when Neo first woke up and Morpheous showed him how the world really works.
