I'm obsessed with how people are perceiving me and need to let everyone know I'm having a good time. I don't seem to be able to just enjoy the moment for what it is. I'm sick of it to be honest but I can't seem to stop. People have commented on it a few times and I'm actually embarrassed by how superficial I seem. I know I'm not though, it's just something that has a hold on me right now but I'm not sure what to do. Really hope this doesn't seem really trivial as to me it's becoming a problem. Any advice would be appreciated.

I was like this with facebook. Finally I decided to deactivate my account and uninstalled it from my devices. Also created a Tumblr account to document all my thoughts and feelings without ppl from FB finding them so no judgement. I'm 28 years old and as more and more social media mediums come out I have found myself less and less interested because of so many bells and whistle and crap these hip new apps. Sorry I have a life and no time for twitter (which doesn't allow long posts which always annoyed me hence I stopped it).

All I can suggest is to remove all links to those sites, uninstall the apps, and find something else you can do online. Write a blog maybe? But if you're like me you probably like having an audience. That one is going to be hard to get over.
