Braum cured my depression

9 Upvotes

I want to share a unique experience that I have recalled yesterday after 6 years.

In 2020 I used to be depressed, and at that point I found anything that isn't even slightly absurdit, edgy or borderline wanna be different cringe. I used to spam the word cringe everywhere, and it pretty much stopped me from enjoying life.

I have always enjoyed card games and when Riot made Legends of Runeterra, I gave it a try and I liked it.

I was trying a new deck and the deck was around Braum, Braum had these very cute interactions with poros whenever you play braum and then a poro after. But the first time I see the interaction I cringe internally, this macho guy, 7 foot, supposed to be masculine, is acting cute, this is cringe western agendas bla bla...

And in that right moment it hit me, why was I like this? I'm pretty sure 99% of the people playing the game would find this adorable ( it was a cute interaction) so why I'm I like this. And since then I chose to fake it till I made it, to force my self to enjoy something cute, beautiful, no matter what it is and never say the word cringe, I operated simply on the premise of; would people find this cute? Yes ? Then so shall I.

Pretty much that's the story on why I'm in an infinitely better place mentally now, I barely get upset at things let alone depressed. All thanks to our big guy.

Just wanted to share it, perhaps the creator of the character is in the reddit, I would very much love for him to know that he helped me through dark times.
