Do you know what pulled your friend out of that place?
I know you can't change people's minds for them, but there are some good friends of mine who are currently in dark places, and I'd like to help pull them out of that, if at all possible.

Honestly I am not sure if I said anything, but I recalled watching a MGTOW video from the channel he sent me. And maybe I am misremembering (maybe I didn't day anything), but I did feel like saying (maybe I did, I can't recall) that "nah man, a good girl exists".
He was saying (probably jokingly) about going Ted style to live out in the woods. But honestly maybe it was just him going through a certain strain of politics phase. I guess we all do.
My best advice is to destroy whatever monobelief they have in "the world is screwed". So, for example, with MGTOW it is then best to tell them " no, good girls exist - but you won't get then if you are a sob story"
The whole doomed stuff makes men esker and less attractive.
Victorhood > Victimhood (stolen from Candace Owens), maintain this mentality despite circumstance. Remember you only have one life, want to bitch everyday - or work your way around "the problems". That's what it comes down to.
He now is exercising and all, I am not sure what pulled him out.
But he didn't have a realization later it seemed and he is doing better it seems.
Not sure what it was, I dont think it was me though.
