Flatlines don't exist
I started watching corn when I was 14 & gooned my way through to high-school, discovered SR at 16.
Retained for 100+ days (with some stumbles of course) & felt most of the standard benefits most men go through.
I'm 24 now, and yes, I have had long bouts of binging corn & perodic flat-moods/depression, but never have I been through this 'flatline', I only discovered that it was a thing the day I hopped onto reddit.
Your mind is unbelievably powerful, more than you can fathom.
If someone convinced you that a harmless sugar pill was a powerful medicine, your body could actually begin to heal as if it were real.
But if you believed that same pill was poison, your body might react with nausea or weakness, even though nothing harmful was inside.
It all comes down to belief.
Belief overwrites the rules of reality, its the essence of materialising something into existence.
We all have bad days, stumbles, falls, feeling like shit due to factors outside of our control.
But to equate that to a 'flatline' - as if EVERY person on SR is expected to go through that shit?
I'm not falling for it, and neither should you.
