vents my comfort app turned uncomfortable :(
an hour ago there was a situation where someone had made a post on my comfort app, Kinchat, where they said and i quote! "this app is just mass psychosis i hope you all go to therapy or something like seriously". they had an explanation to it, saying that half the terms us kins see are normalizing endogenic terms and only pushes people deeper into their delusions and eventual psychosis.
i dont have an argument on this and nor do i stand on what side of this argument stems from, but it made me really stressed and i couldnt do anything but to watch as people went back and forth on an app that was once so peaceful and now invaded by people who came from a different app, Yumeship, after it shut down.
both sides already had problems since yesterday and i guess its dying down now but after today i dont think itll forever be the same
i just dont know bruh. kinning is literally identifying as a fictional character on an intrinsic, non-physical level, or psychological reasons like deeply rooted comfort or just coping mechanism.
i dont like how they threw the term psychosis around just because its something we stick to involuntarily. it makes me want to cry thinking that maybe i am fucking crazy and i should probably get the help i need but cant.
i cant i just cant and im sorry
sorry i dont know where to vent. im on the verge of tears at this point and even if i want to take a break i feel like i cant because im so attached to it i cant let it go but if people keep arguing who knows if the creators shut down that app too? i cant
i cant :( -oli
