I fell for it, /lit/. I started reading nonstop a couple months ago, and since then, strange things happened.

Sometimes when I wanted to keep reading at night, I found myself rejecting alcohol just to fully enjoy reading. Now I hardly drink at all.

I also kind of had trouble trying to sleep. Nowadays I read before going to bed instead of watching youtube, tv or playing videogames, and I don't have insomnia anymore.

Anxiety? At the beginning yes; after having endured some longbois, I feel relaxed and chill.

I don't even feel the need to coom as often as I once did; I went from cooming each day to maybe a couple days a week now.

Maybe, just maybe... reading improves life? Am I r-right, /lit/?

I know you're memeing but the day I started reading as a serious hobby I experimented the same effects you've described. Then after two months or so I stopped reading altogether and all the bad habits came at once. So yeah, it's kind of a meme but also true. Keep on reading anon

I'm not sure tho. The first time this thought crossed my mind, sure, I was half memeing, but now idk what to think

You're right. Developing a reading habit helped me overcome my video game addiction. Haven't played a game in years.
