(social) Media

Social media can also depress you like news media.

What happens is on social network sites people post shit that puts them in a flattering light - something that makes them look good - pics, status updates, etc. Other people read this and compare that person's life to their own and they feel less happy than the other person. Over time this can make a person feel depressed.


But hey its just facebook drama. No need to take it all seriously.

  7. I guess it's the opposite for me. I see how sad people, who try to act cool, really are and feel better about myself.

  8. I got tired of all the fb status updates. Felt there was too much chatter, but nothing really being said. So I just stopped logging in.

    I would delete my acct, but I use to stay in contact with family in the US
