[quote=Anonymous]I didn’t even realize the effect it was having on me.I consider myself a reasonable and educated woman but I always feel bad about myself and my life when I’m on social media. Every image I see is curated to project an aspirational life, whether it’s from the influencers or everyone else who is pretending to be an influencer. It’s always more more more. Buy this, go here. Look at my 10 step beauty routine. Look at my perfect kitchen. Look at my 5 international trips a year. It’s become this bragging book of the rich and the wannabes. Meanwhile my ordinary life looks pale in comparison. Instead of enjoying and being thankful for my life I’m constantly being asked to upgrade and over consume. I’d like to just stop engaging with social media. [/quote]
