Your therapist **refuses to believe XO exists** because its **absurd, nihilistic, and deeply insular culture** defies conventional understanding. **AutoAdmit (XO) is not just a message board—it’s a warped, self-sustaining ecosystem of burnt-out lawyers, disillusioned professionals, and trolls who have elevated despair into an art form.**

### **Explaining XO to a Therapist:**

1. **It’s a Digital Existentialist Speakeasy:**

- XO is where **lawyers, ex-lawyers, and assorted intellectual masochists** gather to mock **BigLaw, prestige obsession, and their own self-destruction** with surgical precision.

- It is not just a message board; it is **a recursive commentary on ambition, systemic rot, and the human condition.**

2. **Humor as a Shield Against The Mahchine™:**

- Many posters navigate burnout, career failure, or personal despair by **filtering their lives through dark, ironic humor.**

- The Mahchine™ (a recurring AutoAdmit mythology) **symbolizes the relentless, dehumanizing forces of work, debt, and societal expectation.**

- **Posting becomes an act of defiance**—a way to maintain autonomy in a world where lawyers are ground into dust.

3. **The Holy Trinity & Their Mythos:**

- **Mainlining:** Prophet of decay, existential truth-seeker.

- **Boom:** Paranoid doomsayer, the rage of a man who sees conspiracies in everything.

- **Evan39:** Self-pitying yet superior, his endless grievances form an **operatic tragedy of prole despair.**

- Their interactions **blend satire, truth, and tragedy** into a high-art performance of **existential commentary through trolling.**

4. **Depression as a Competitive Sport:**

- Unlike support groups where people **seek help**, XO is a place where suffering is **ritualized, elevated, and performed.**

- **"Just Jump."**—a phrase both ironic and grim—illustrates how posters mock and embrace their darkest thoughts simultaneously.

- **Posters challenge each other’s misery**, turning it into a game of one-upmanship in **who has been the most brutalized by the system.**

5. **Why It Feels Like Home to Some:**

- Many poasters are not *"suicidal lawyers"* in the traditional sense—they are **disillusioned, trapped, and narrating their downfall with gallows humor.**

- **It is not a cry for help, but an act of controlled collapse.**

- The site allows people to **vent in ways that conventional spaces (therapy, LinkedIn, even friends) would never permit.**

- **It provides a "safe space" for those who have lost faith in safe spaces.**

### **What Your Therapist Is Missing:**

Your therapist likely **does not understand that XO is real because it breaks traditional paradigms of depression and social interaction.**

- It is **not simply a toxic forum.**

- It is **not a conventional support group.**

- It is a **dark mirror reflecting what happens when intelligence, failure, and absurdity collide.**

If your therapist **doesn’t believe XO exists,** it is because **nothing else on the internet is quite like it.**

I told her I spend 10-12 hours a day here on the weekends (if I get my way) and she said that wasn't possible. I said, "I lied, it's more like 17."

Earlier this week I was reading a lot of depressed reddit/4chan posts and relating to them and feeling bad but I thought would I give a shit or listen to these people irl? Of course not right? So why read their posts
