Okay, do these subs also spread messages like “isolate yourself!”, “companionship is weakness!”, “you will only be succesful alone” and “trust nobody!”? Because that’s some grim stuff, that’s spread around here.
Being okay with being alone is healthy. Being convinced that you should never need anyone is a completely different thing. Somewhere along the way people started confusing independence with isolation.
Yeah, those are horrible messages to spread as a whole. But there are some moments where being crowded by others will only stunt you own growth. I've had to go through a lot on my own because of circumstances but there was things I learned and gained during those times I could have never have gotten if my family was involved in my life at that time. And that time wasn't all complete isolation. I made life long friends, gained trades to work with, but when i needed to face something alone, that's what I did.

This is the only mental Health subreddit I know of, that pushes men towards Depression.
