About "boring life" and dependence on social networks

Hi, my lovelies! Here is the thing, today I want to talk about FOMO or fear of missing out. It is quite a new but already fast spreading phenomenon. In Russian, we call it as a «syndrome of missed benefit». In other words, while scrolling down through your feed full of all those friends and celebs, it affects you in a way that you start to think that all these people have a very fruitful and fulfilled life.

By looking through posts and photos of other people, jealousy only fuels your unstable self-esteem and makes your life look miserable. It seems like the whole world is about no more than fast diets, parties, trendy exhibitions and Instagram food. All the information, which we are posting, is strictly devoted to a particular subject. And my blog is not an exception. There are only a few individuals who have a good amount of courage to show their true selves. For instance, I spend most of the time working in front of the computer. Working, working, working. When you see my photos, it is hard to imagine that I as all the human beings get ill, feel sad or that I have that funky morning breath. Moreover, I definitely can suffer from pimple attack or get a grey hair. But I, like almost all of you, try to create that perfect picture of myself.

If you have an urge to check your feed constantly. Every three minutes or so. Then you have FOMO. If colorful photos of other people's lives make you feel jealousy and lead to discomfort with your inner-self, then it ishigh time you to change something. I advise you to slow down and start using social network more consciously. Hardly you will cope with the fast change. Narrow down your subscriptions. Leave only people you know personally. Last but not least, pay more attention to your own problems and stop wasting time on envy and anger.
