it’s not burying your head…

It’s accepting more trauma than you can handle. More and more people are starting to ask really serious questions around the news and social media - duh - but it’s a good perspective shift for me and I’m sure others. It’s not, not knowing, or not staying informed, or ignoring… it’s saving ourselves from trauma and losing a bit of ourselves.

Love the questions they ask in the article.

What am I hoping for when I pull up social media?
What needs am I trying to meet?
Is it to connect, to zone out, to amuse myself, to stay up-to-date with what’s happening in the world?
How are my mind and body reacting to what I’m seeing?
