The best thing you can do is find a companion that isn’t addicted to the corporate rat race. Someone you can live in the moment with. You might never change how you’re feeling, but you will feel a lot better about your current situation.

Also delete FB and Instagram that shit is poison. Don’t compare yourself to anyone. Compare yourself now to yourself last year. Make your goals for yourself next year based on yourself today.

Comparison can be the killer of joy, all social media sucks for that.

Yeah it’s funny how people throw around the term “influencer” as like a job title, like a doctor, and look up to them like role models. It’s hard to believe that so many don’t understand that’s exactly what they’re paid to do: Influence you into believing their life is better, so you should buy this to make your life as good as mine. And be sure to follow me for more ad- I mean content. It’s so obviously predatory, but because it’s popular and has 3 million likes, you’d be outcasted to think otherwise. Pretty ingenious of them tbh

Finding a companion like that is an understated point to make

Definitely needs to be emphasized more

DELETE YOUR FUCKING INSTAGRAM. Sorry for the abrasiveness but this post is so relevant for me right now. 28 y/o guy trying to get it all at once. I deleted my Instagram and Facebook last week and my anxiety has dropped a lot. I didn’t even realize how much it was affecting me.
