Social media is just not a word, it's a phrase depicting a soul covered with refinement and insecurities. Today the generation we belong to has somewhere been overwhelmed with the discovery of the Internet and creation of several brainwashing apps.
You start comparing yourself to the filtered world, you have been observing on these platforms. Where everyone has just been through a lot but isn’t ready to show everything except luxuries, smiles, exposing content and the overloaded kindness.
It’s easily seen how the people under the age of 50 have been the greatest and the most terrific prey’s in the trap of social media, and it can be without fail, termed as the Master Card of isolation. None go without doubting themselves each day in this Internet community. Then blame being indulged in the bouquet of depression, anger, frustration and many more psychological disorders.
You watch a person live a luxurious life with all their earned money through your views. Does it give you complete satisfaction? I guess sometimes we all have done that, but we keep on repeating our mistakes. Following these impostors of believing the very filtered world where everything that is shown never has a dark side.
The candies never get eaten by the ants. Neither the food gets expired. If you understand this concept you will see that our regular lives have an expired date where every emotion that we live with happiness does not stay forever. Sad innings does not stay permanent, nor do the others but the social media world has made us believe that everything that happens under the Internet is always joyous and never gets a dull moment.
Being cranky all day long, talking rudely to your loved ones, give your thumb some rest and stopping scrolling on your device. Your delusions have been forcing you to reside in the world of dreams and not allowing you to get up and face reality.
Also when one starts believing to keep themselves apart from the crowd by not including oneself in any gathering, parties or functions make you more isolated than ever.
Stop questioning yourself for always having this demand of being perfect. Everything shown on the touchscreen isn’t real. You have been isolating yourself. Taking away the raw ‘you’ from ‘you’ and the world where everyone loved you the way you weren’t the way you have turned out after watching the social media life.
Keeping yourself busy on the table corner scrolling your phone or hiding yourself inside the blanket, weeping all day long and wondering why wouldn’t I ever get that life. Isn’t the reason for keeping yourself isolated. The original reason is, you have forgotten the earlier yourself in a child and you have become too mature of understanding the fake world.
