I started browsing at a similar time, and I think it just made me smarter and more self-aware at the time. It was the online equivalent of hanging out with the older kids, and it accelerated my development to the point where I was pretty lonely, only because I couldn't find anyone who wanted to or knew enough to talk about the things discussed on here (not just /lit/, but /mu/ and /pol/ etc.). I'm 21 now.

I started at 14 and am 20 now. The way this place affects oneself is nebulous but I think it’s the holder of a pearl of truth in our current society. I don’t care if I’m psychologically fucked as consequence of exposure to this truth, it was worth it.

i started at 12 and i turn 22 this month.

i think you have it backwards; this place didn't change us, we gravitated here because we were already like this.

Well, I was 13/14 at the time, so I think doing either of those things can be excused (though I didn't really do either, especially the latter). Maybe get rid of the smug tone, you fat fuck!
