A side effect of taking the Red Pill is that we become more and more aware of just how society, our upbringing, etc, has lied to us in all facets of our lives. This can be a beautiful and empowering thing and should serve as a catalyst for us to improve our lives.
However, let me ask you this - are you really using the red pill as a catalyst for improvement or are you using it simply as a space to vent your frustrations? Are you now working out more, pursuing girls in a more effective manner, reading more, expanding your mind, etc? Are you making any positive changes in your life since taking the red pill?
Or are you just here to bitch and moan?
By the way, it's perfectly OK to bitch and moan sometimes, especially with all the lies that we have been fed, but to make "bitch and moan" a perpetual state is not healthy.
I think comedian Duncan Trussell said it better then I ever would. I would recommend the following audio for everyone - http://youtu.be/rdNSkzT6UHE?

Don't get yourself stuck in a perpetual state of negativity, especially when there is so much life out there to experience.

This is an important message to reiterate.
Life is pretty shit by default, realising a lot of the bullshit this society is
constructed from and conveys (especially in relation to women) and seeing shit for what it is makes it even shittier as you don't have the fantasy warm gooey
perceptions to anaesthetise the pains of reality. Reality is a pretty shitty place but you need to understand it to be able to have the power to cultivate your own reality into what you want it to be, to make that cash money, to fuck all them hoes, to jet-set, to be well-read, to have a family, to be a multi-millionaire, whatever the fuck it is you want - rather than let the system assign you a preselected power-limiting role which curbs your civil liberty, personal power, your own perception of yourself, your ability to hold influence and a bunch of other crap - likely the role the system would ascribe to you if you would just go with the flow is a role that does not fulfill the tenacity of your ambitions.
So taking the pill can actually make life seem worse, sure it's empowering to know the truth, but not everyone can handle the weight of that truth.
The truth is power, but with power comes responsibility and the responsibility of realising how truly fucking shitty women are, how pragmatic and manipulative they are, and hilariously, how only some of them are even self-aware of their own fucked up irrational natures can take quite the toll on a man.
This is why its important to develop a coping mechanism.
I encourage you all to inject positivity into your life. Watch stand up comedy, go join a comedy club. Honestly, stand-up for the most part is red pill as fuck, you can get away with saying what you like as long as it's funny. We've all seen it with
Bill Burr, Dave Chapelle and the other greats.
Building your SMV can cause growing pains and you may need to lean on things like comedy and junk activities like "playing video games" to ease the growing pains, but as long as you have direction and are still growing and seeing progress that's OK.
Eventually when your SMV is high enough it will reward dividends in and of itself.
If a problem in your life is broke, fix it.
• Overweight? Start jogging.
• Can't workout because of injury? Find workouts you can do which wont exacerbate the injury.
• Miserable fuck? Find shit that makes you laugh.
• People in your life bring you down? Get the fuck rid of them. If it's not immediately possible e.g.: you cant afford to move out from your crazy single parent mother then just avoid her as much as you can.
• Not got any friends? Socialise more, drink some alcohol, go to the comedy club.
• Spending too much money? Downsize.
• Can't earn enough money? Hustle. Get educated. Kiss some ass. Read 48 laws. Find an edge. Do something. Give up on yourself and the world will too.
Ironically all these problems are things which need to be solved in order to increase SMV, and once your SMV is high you will find none of these things are problems. We're all on the path and all of us are at different stages of the path in periods of life. Some of you are doing this for the first time, others of you have been burned before and are doing shit you've already done before to rebuild.
Whatever.
Have a mission and fucking go for it.
Lethargic because you've got no energy? Drink water. Blueberries. One lemon in your tea a day. Make that green tea. Get at least 7.5 hours sleep per night. If you have an urgent deadline take power naps in 1.5 hour patterns (so 1.5 - 3 - 4.5 - 6 - 7.5 - 9 hours etc) as that's when your REM cycles end and that way you don't feel groggy.
Life is fucking hard and unfair and women are heartless ruthless observers of your value who will use you for basically any benefit you can provide, but then although perhaps not so competent in the art of Machiavellianism as the average woman, men do the same fucking shit too.
The only reason you are mad/upset is because you were indoctrinated to believe that women are the fairer sex, that they were somehow more pure and that only big evil men do fucked up shit, that females are kind and gentle and "unicorn rainbow shitting fairies" who'll sprinkle you with motherly love and let you suckle on her bosom as she shields you from the world and your bad day slaving for the man.
WRONG. Fact of the matter is if she didn't shit you out of her vagina she's got no unconditional love for you. It's tingles/cash or get the fuck out.
Stop feeling sorry for yourself, toughen the fuck up. Sometimes its tough, find a way to cope. I've listed a bunch of ways. Fix your problems. Stop finding excuses.
Give yourself a slap. Feeling lazy right now? Go under the shower for 2 minutes, make sure its cold. Not freezing cold (you will get brain freeze) just quite cold. It will raise your T and make you motivated. Go on. Do it. Go. Now.
