SuicideFuel Can't "escape" with escapism

[SilverBullet]

title basically. Over the years I've been watching shitty animes, or playing vidya, I just can't seem to "escape" while coonsuming escapism. In the back of my mind, all I can think about is how much I wish I could be the MC. Or how much I wish I could reincarnate into these fantasy worlds. I feel mogged knowing the MC has a loving girlfriend/wife, or that he has something fulfilling to work toward while I sit in my room wasting away. I'm mostly numb to it, but the past week I've been losing my mind, wondering what I'm even doing in this life anymore. Every day is dreadful and monotonous. No matter whether you're a NEET or wageslave, the days are the exact same. I just wish I had the ability to truly delude myself into the media I'm consuming. Or to accept that the media is simply fiction.

escapism doesn't work for me. I'm too self-aware and too self critical to delude myself. I am mentally unable to fall into delusion.

yea not really sure how people do it. The only way I've ever been able to "escape" in a sense was coping with AI. I was able to control how the story went, as well as who I interacted with. But when the MC has his own identity and dialogue, how could anyone self-insert themselves? It doesn't make sense to me.

AI is too stupid for me. I use it because I don't have anyone to talk to, but those Clankers remain on the mental level of a 5 yo with nigh infinite knowledge.

I am due for a needed trailer upgrade.

Scalping the corporate bastid nest egg. Also, homeless creeper bums are not immune from muh financial terror.
Rich or poor pay crying about inflation.
