Is escapism really that bad?
Let's say i come home after a hard day of work and I'm an extremely lonely person with nothing to lose, and the only thing that keeps me happy are vidyas and annie may, and i lock myself in my room doing nothing but watching annie and playing vidya.
I personally find that type of lifestyle extremely comfy

what isnt (IS NOT) escapism? for example
Nothing wrong with it as long as you keep enjoying it. The problem is when it starts to not fill the void anymore
You find that lifestyle comfy because in reality your life is shit. But instead of working on a better future you simply ignore the issues that need to be addressed in your life, thinking that only if you forget about it tonight you'll be fine. Sooner or later you'll get depression/anxiety/etc and you'll wonder "why is my mind so broken? why can't I be like the rest?" while you eat your microwave dinner and watch some fat kid larping a grownup on twitch.

what's a good lifestyle anyways? The only thing I have to worry at my tender age of 18 is losing my virginity but i feel no hurry in doing that. i U-N-I-R-O-N-I-C-A-L-L-Y believe that i wasn't made for this world and i see no future for mself.

That's exactly why you need a good lifestyle. Of course you're not made for this world if your free time consists of indulging in fantasies like vidyas/anime/porn. You'll need to have solid consistent daily habits like: sleep/workout/diet. Replace your bullshit mindless activities with working on a new skill / reading / socializing.

This.
Escapism leads to addiction very swiftly.
