I know it's social media that's mainly contributing to this feeling but I can't seem to shake it.
Logged on today & an influencer I follow has started a second business & it just feels like everyone is doing well & making a lot of money & I just feel so incredibly stuck in life.
No idea what it is I want to do with my life. In a job I dislike, applied for a job - didn't get it, in a living situation with my ex that I can't afford to leave, I'm struggling with friendships, I feel like I'm being a terrible distant mum to my daughter, my body won't give me a break - no matter how many times I shower/do bodycare routines, I seem to always smell funky plus I'm gaining weight cuz I'm comfort eating. Ugh😒 Everything is just getting to me & I just don't want to be here anymore. I'm tired of it all.

Hi, can understand. Happy to chat

Here if you wanna chat 😊

If you’re already identifying social media as a problem, eliminate that and see how you go from there. It sounds like you’re using it to escape your reality, but it is making you feel worse, which is feeding into the cycle. Deactivate your account for 1 week and when you feel the urge to scroll, do something for yourself. You will soon notice a change 🩷

Remember that just because it looks a certain way on social media doesn't mean it's true. Take a break from it and do something that makes you feel good.
