Plus, none of them ever helped and I stopped seeing them. But, I also feel a social attachment here. There is no other social media I interact on. I am lonely and enjoying ‘antisocial’ media!
I have a message on FB that I should have responded to (I have been telling myself--I will do it today) a while ago but hesitate to ever even look at FB. Part of it is that I dislike the newsfeed (there is just too much IMO) and the other part is that I was never able to tell people on FB (old HS friends and a few others) some of the significant things I have been through (like my cancer diagnosis and recovery). The biggest barrier mentally about it was my mental health breakdown and this seems like the only place where people could relate. I consider all the people I "friended" to be very nice people but I feel like a bit of a misfit on FB because of how my life seems so different than theirs. IMO, I have more in common with people here....
