View submission: Am I losing my mind??
Advice that applies to MANY situation wrt online content. The internet isn’t real life. Sure it’s full of people talking about their life experiences but it’s also easier to stumble upon echo chambers and the anonymity of discussion can lead to fomenting/cultivation of groupthink and other dangerous fallacious lines of thought/reasoning.
Again, the internet. Is not. Real life. Don’t take it so damn seriously.

I am hoping this continues to catch on. Before Twitter, we still abided by this, and then social media really took off, and everyone had to record every last second of their lives for the world to see. As soon as we were allowed to manipulate these vids/photos/etc, we all kinda lost touch of reality. We need to remember this; in your daily life, you are probably surrounded by grounded and moderate people who will care about you if you let them in and give them a chance.
