How True! I deactivated a few months ago and without it I am genuinely more at peace than I am with it. I spend entirely too much time on it and forget about when I was drunk! Alcohol + Facebook = Embarrassing disaster. I’d wake up the next morning to delete my paragraphs of rants about god knows what (politics, racism, religion). I also found my self esteem seemed low while comparing my life to all of my friends who are out traveling to different countries, getting married, growing their families, buying homes, happily in love, graduating with PHD’s, getting promotions, in top top physical shape, etc…

I am a whole lot more at peace without social media and without updating my “status” every time I decide to have a pulse with a purpose. It’s dumb. I actually text or call my friends and family if I need them. :woman_shrugging:t5: And I’m also more focused on my own growth instead of being in the bleachers for everyone else’s.

My work uses FB a lot too… for shift trades, anyone looking to work extra, upcoming mandatory stuff, other hospitals needing help, etc. (the kind of stuff you don’t typically email).

I’m exaggerating a little (just a little though) in regards to the password requirements lol. Just more stuff to keep track of.

I’m so glad my work doesn’t use FB! I’ve been backing off of it and all social media the past few months. It really is freeing!

I’m eating homemade soup over the sink while my son snores in the other room. Close, but it’ll have to do.

Day 345

I dunno.
I’m just out of it today.
Totally spaced out at work and I feel shitty about it. It’s not that I was simply distracted or not paying attention… I, like, lost time. The way you do when you black out.
I don’t know what happened. I just went away for 15 minutes. Totally dropped the ball.

Sober AF and still actin’ crunk :confused:

It’s been an emotional roller coaster of a week, but I think there has been a bit of a pressure release. Still rocking out sober. :bird:
