This is such an odd secret that I almost feel like it's an attempt to be subtle troll.

I'm not sure how writing *because* of low self-esteem is a thing? Like, they should be stage performers, but they have such "low self-esteem" that they've lowered themselves to writing fanfic? I don't get it. Maybe you mean in conjunction with the other things – they have low self-esteem so they want validation? Even with the self-serving stuff (wanting to be Internet-famous), I don't get how you'd be enabling something that is in no way under your control.

Anyway, I don't see how writing to escape one's problems is a bad thing anyway. Lots of people write (or read or play video games or whatever) to escape. As an avoidance technique, you could do worse. And if they're going to do it anyway, how are you enabling them by reading it? Are you their only reviewer, cheering them on and thus you feel you're encouraging this avoidance behavior? Because (a) that's not how enabling works and (b) even if it were, you are not responsible for others' feelings and actions in this situation.

I doubt you know these people's lives to the extent that you can speak to their mental health and social adjustment, etc etc. You see a sliver of their lives, and you're making a lot of assumptions.
