Very well written and can relate for sure. I have not watched news in years and deleted my social media accounts a year ago, never felt better in my life with that being gone. That's how I chose my battle, I had to remove things that would possibly trigger me in a negative way as I was healing from other issues.
Unfortunately people normally react to things that make no sense, most of the time out of their own personal dramas, struggles, pain...Whatever it may be, there is no excuse for being rude to someone who is not at fault, rather just doing their job. I feel bad for those people who need to deal with stuff like that, which causes mental issues in their own life just because they HAVE to be there and are not able to chose their battles. Unfortunately especially these days, there is so much pain and struggle and people take it out on ones around them, instead of admitting there is an issue and find help for it.
Yes, mental health is a big thing and it requires a lot of work, healing and keeping yourself on track at all times no matter what happens. It's the toughest battle I know, battle with your own mind.

Hey, that's awesome about your SM's. I don't have any either and am glad if it. There's nothing of value there and removing the negativity from ones life is ownership over and responsibility for oneself and the benefits are massive.
I get the impression you're pretty switched on about methods to keep oneself on track and that's a good thing. So many relinquish their control over that to social medias and yeah, they suffer for it; also many are so blinded they don't even see it.
Thanks for your great comment and for sharing some of your personal thoughts. ✅
I agree, there's no value from social media, rather it's a tool to brainwash people more.
Yea, I've been around people who are struggling and trying to help them through their mental health issues, it has taught me a lot but mostly learning from my own experiences. Until you realise you have a problem and start properly working on it, you can't know and see it and unfortunately most people start doing so when they don't have any other option, when you fall so deep, the only motivation you have is to find a solution on how to get back up. The rest, well they remain in their "victim mentality" for a long time and it shows through how they treat others.
Thanks for choosing such topic, always love to discuss deep things like this :)
It all seems so clear to me, the downside of social media, and yet so many stay there, defend it, extolling its value to them. Talk about brainwashed.
I used to try and make them see it differently, or at least see some of the negatives. A few did but most...Nope, they spend their lives on that endless scrolling-feed and absorb the negativity as if it's nourishing.
It's bemusing.
Yup, the struggle is real! I sometimes do the same and try to inform people about all sort of things but it's very hard to convince the convinced so I stopped bothering. Well, I still try, but less than I use to. People are scared of changes so they rather stay in their bubble of what they know and are familiar with.
Battles we cannot win :I
Yes...As the quote indicates, one must know when to walk away from some things. So, I rarely try to enlighten people over the social media plague and leave them to find out the hard way.
Exactly!
