Anxiety over social media, extremists, personal problems and world problems.

Hey guys! Long time no see...

I've been dealing with a lot of stuff in my personal life, plus the the problems of the outside world.

I can't stress enough how much of a nutshell this era is, everything it's political, everything you do it's wrong even if you are trying your best to be the best version of yourself.

It's really tiring seeing the online world when it comes to this problems in the real world. Not denying at all that there's awful things happening in every part of the world... But I'm human, and I can't be everywhere at the same time, I can't do or "save" or "Help" everything.

I'm also really tired that people now are more worried about skin colour, than the persona itself, "you are only the colour of your skin", "you are the one to blame for all that happens to me", "I hate xwy people", "your are privileged for this and that and I don't".

That's why, I decided to take my head and eyes off from social media, all of them.

It's creating me a lot of unnecessary and dumb anxiety for something that it's not even my fault. I'm done and tired of extremism.

We need to find again harmony within ourselves, not validation out there from "doing what it's right".

Does anyone else feel this way?

yes.. I agree, Lots of going on too much media. too much critics on everything. better really to take brake from the exposure online and the news is odd too, causes me heightened nervousness and as if I didn't have enough that I'm dealing with on my own problems that we are all trying and have been trying to improve, and now the blasted things on the media and so many opinionated people who want to pressure you into their ideas and thoughts. I wish the news would just come out and say some positive things to us about how everyone can have their own right to think instead of pushing what seems is agendas - political

agree..and find it harder to connect or communicate to people, some don't realize they are brainwashed into thoughts coming from the media and then when you can't share your own personal feelings about things going on with others who you think you can trust --like vent about your day or something, seems that information get shared really fast and shocking how you really don't have privacy or rights to privacy anymore, which is sad, and people getting to used to giving up their privacy too and thinking nothing of it with the tech these days. That seems to bother me, how people don't seem to care about that or think they need their privacy anymore either. just a strange world of times
