I am sorry to hear this.
Are you comparing yourself to yourself of yesterday, or are you comparing yourself to the fictional characters of others on social media?
- meowtimemania 5y agoIf I use tiktok regularly it makes me feel depressed. For me it's best just to limit social media as much as possible.
- mrtksn 5y agoIt’s not really about me comparing. On Twitter (and reddit) the world is crumbling, what the society has become, WW3 must be imminent, anything is futile, very organization is evil, everyone is angry, and there are some people that are stupid beyond comprehension that that makes me think I shouldn’t even bother. The same old nonsense would keep be parroted repeatedly. Then I look at Instagram, everyone is having a perfect life. By perfect I don’t mean a life I would like to have, I too go to vacations and restaurants, what I mean is a curated perfection of what life is “supposed to be”. It’s just dull. When combined with TikTok It makes me feel like the society dried up. It’s like When people don’t do evil things and not yelling they do extremely mundane stuff out of the mill.
