When we see on social media photos or comments of our contacts, can we think that our life is boring and has nothing to offer?That’s why we do everything we can to be like everyone else and post thousands of photos to tell our adventures there. But is the lives of others really as wonderful as social media reflect?Is it worth having a “full” social life?
For example, couples who constantly “inform” their acquaintances that they are in love and cannot live without each other are in fact insurgical and jealous. Do you need to yell at the four winds to simulate? Perfection or invent a confirmation that is but a reflection of life itself.
- Posts of happy and passionate couples hiding marriage crises.
- People taking selfies in all parts of the world perhaps showing only loneliness.
- Phrases of mutual aid or development that are intended to give a lesson in pedagogy.
- So that these absolute judgments can be laws.
Unfortunately, when we see these messages, our brain feels a sigh of envy because it understands that others are more fun, have a fantastic life, have found true love, or experience unique sensations. But in all this brilliity, is there really gold?
Spending hours and hours in front of social media can put us in a state of melancholy, which is especially harmful when you do so with a comparative attitude and taking it as a reference. If we feel that the world owes us something, which is not true, we will increase that feeling if we have the perception that others are doing very well. Thus, looking at the profile of others can increase our sense of being victims.
Do you think it’s impossible not to connect every day to this platform that brings the latest news from those around you?According to a study by a Danish institute, using Facebook in this way makes us unhappy. For the survey, a group of participants did not. opens your profile for a week; admitted that they felt less stressed and more focused on their work or education.
Those who do not use or have profiles on these pages enjoy the day differently, have more time to rest, exercise, perform tasks early, prepare dinner or clean the house. As if that were not enough, being oblivious to a social network leads us to talk to those next to us, to see in person what we love, or to call family and friends more often.
The result of this test makes us think: “We continually read good news and wonderful things about each other’s profiles and it makes us compare and depress. The words or images that appear are not always the right ones, since the world of social networks is based on showing others our best version, a distorted image of who we really are.
This phrase should be used as a mantra whenever we feel depressed after seeing nice posts and social media posts Why do we say happiness is not true?
Very simple: because it is a selected image and, in many cases, manipulated within everyone around the moment of this photo, it is not an image placed in this place at random, only an image that the person who posted it likes it, so at best it can only inform us of their tastes.
On the other hand, he thinks that anyone who takes the time to take a photo at any given time is failing to take advantage of that moment. He leaves the stage, the stage and stops at him as a spectator, while on stage he leaves only a kind of reflection of his life.
What happens on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram is somehow separate from the real and the authentic; it’s more of an advertising exercise or the satiety of a need to show yourself in a certain way.
If your social life isn’t the same as everyone else’s, congratulations!You don’t have to post thousands of photos from a Saturday outing or your dream vacation to know you’ve had a good time, think all these memories and moments existed. actually, even if you don’t have a window into the world.
