social media haunts me
God, I hate Facebook. But I am obsessed. Well. Not really obsessed...but I do check it...daily....and I comment...and leave updates occasionally...and post pictures of Clara. (Not insane amounts of pictures of Clara, mind you...but enough for my sisters to be pleased.)
I have loved connecting with old faraway friends...and with colleagues from around the country...finding family members...elementary school chums....you know. But. I hate that I like having the ability to look into everyone's lives. It's disturbing that sometimes random information from a "friend's" page will come into my mind...when I am actually busy living my own life.
I don't get it.
It aggravates me. Sometimes, it makes me depressed. I have noooo idea why! Tommy tells me to just delete my account. But. I can't do it.
I think I do need a breather though. No Facebook for awhile.
Well...we'll see.

ReplyDeleteAmen.
ReplyDeleteExactly the reason I deleted my account a year ago!
ReplyDeleteThere have been so many articles about the depression caused by Facebook. It's not reality to only see your friends at their happiest. No one posts a photo of themselves watching TV and eating chips. ;)
