This video shows what can be at stake by failing to go MGTOW successfully.

A video to this video popped up in my YouTube feed and I watched it.  It looks like a young man who was defeated by life, is likely to drop off YouTube, and may even kill himself.  He didn’t make it in life right, and has started the depression snowball.  What I see around MGTOW, if the right things get in place, is a way to help him.  The issues are deeper, as I see it, than just women problems.  There are other issues of a failure to launch in life.  I see what can happen around MGTOW, is a way to empower and enable, and help with this.  This video shows what I see can be at stake here:

I found out and sent him a message of encouragement.  The issues are deep here, and even deeper than the usual discussion points as I can see it.  Too many young men are going to come up lost in life.

Anyhow, just my 2 cents. Do with this what you will.

Edit, as I posted in the other video, it appears he is doing better, but I still see life doing this to some young men.

I should add he is apparently doing better, and it I see MGTOW in this:

If I feel like getting depressed, all I have to do is review the suicide rates among men and boys. Even more disquieting is how many of the suicides were taking commonly prescribed anti-depressant medication at the time.

I have dealt with depression, and looked into some articles on it, about taking medication.  One view is the medication has an effect of a placebo in that a person feels because it makes them feel so crappy, it must be working, so they get hope.  It is an attempt to fix what can be seen as a software problem (of the mind)

The mental health industry will do some basic counselling, and then get you to a shrink to see what pills you can take.  I tried some given, and I became a sleep zombie.  It was horrible.  I recall also getting some opiate-based pain pills to deal with pain after surgery, and it was all loopy and I felt wonderful no matter what was going on.  I can see what people want that, but it was SO wrong.  I am not supposed to feel wonderful all the time.  Life has ups and downs.  But to fit in and be presentable, people feel pressure to do drugs.  And they are told that life is supposed to be wonderful all the time, so they try to keep up with the Joneses.

He is doing better apparently, but I will still take away from that, that there is some good MGTOW can work out just being MGTOW and sharing what works.  The identity of young men are under attack, and they don’t know what to do.  Unless they fit into the go marriage route, and that norm (good luck guy for getting a woman and getting it to work), there is nothing for them.  But, they are turned into impulse machines, and consumers and drained of resources, attention, and money, to try to fit in and find happiness.  And when they don’t measure up, as seen with this video (repeated them by him in this video of failure and depression), the end up going into spirals.  What I saw in the second video was very MGTOW in that he stopped caring about the what the world judges and he did is own thing, and was just going to play some videogames and not worry about the world.  Of course, I would like to see more options here for him, and other young men, but that is at least progress.

So, in this, if you feel a need to want to try to connect with others (this is a basic intrinsic motivation humans have, which gets exploited by organizations), get going well being MGTOW, and share what you know works with other young MGTOW.  It won’t require much, but you get the positive impact of feeling you actually helped someone else.

Those psychiatric drugs don’t seem to work very well, I know people on them and they constantly have to change medications and deal with nasty side effects.
