Taking a break to find myself and real life.

So I decided that Facebook was being a tad too toxic for me. Looking at everyone else and thinking I should be doing that with my kids or why am I never invited, makes me feel so down and insignificant that I decided I have to limit myself.

Face book is awesome for keeping in touch, meeting new people and reading cool memes. But its shit for making us feel bad, seeing what all your friends or family are doing without you, making you feel inadequate with how you parent and becoming to overly involved and attached to people you have never actually met.

But most of the people who I have met through facebook and online are some of the most supportive and kind people I know. They have helped me through some pretty rough times and made me laugh! I know I will miss this contact with them as I try to wean myself off the addiction that is facebook but I klnow they will be there when I return. they might miss they might not but that's ok.

I am sick of fitness shit on facebook, mothers fighting with another, girls fishing for comments on how they are not fat, nastiness violence yadda yadda.
But I love the support, funny memes, kindness and generally "hanging out" with my friends.

I know this wont last long as I will miss them and I will cave and log back on but for now I am having a break.

So long for now facebook x

  1. On one hand, you have to do what makes you feel good. On the other hand, I miss you already!!!!!! LOL.

    But really, delete stupid people! That's what I do. Some people are a PITA and I don't want to see their whingy or nasty crap on FB every day!
