I have gone back and forth countless times, deciding if I should be posting about my bad days. Often times, when I do post, no one responds and that's okay. But I realized that the reason I didn't want to post anything previously, was because I thought it would annoy other people.
We live in a society of "Instalife". Where no one is allowed to have problems and can only show pictures of a happy, glamorous, successful life. But as we are all aware, that is never the case.
Today I made 32 phone calls in a matter of four hours. I've been dealing with insurance issues and it's caused me to cry four times.
Now, I'm a big kid and a grown woman. I put on my big-girl pants and toughed it out. But, I felt guilty, the whole time, for wanting to call my mom and cry about it, for wanting to post here about it, and for not being able to handle the situation easily - which was out of my control.
But this guilt comes from feeling as if my life should always be a breeze. And that thought comes from social media and the concept of having it all together all the time.
So, I'm just here to say that no matter what it is you're going through, there's also somebody else going through it too. Whether you choose to post about it or not is your business but we shouldn't feel guilty for wanting to express ourselves and for wanting to not be alone in what we're going through.
It's a shame that Society has convinced us otherwise.
