I don't know about other people but social media doesn't make me feel worse about my life. There's no fomo when my 2nd cousin in another state posts about having a baby. She's important to me, and I don't expect her to waste time emailing me directly when the rest of the extended family is all on social media.

Sure, events/posts like that are the main upside to social media.

Unfortunately, that makes up a tiny fraction of most feeds.

It didn't make me feel worse but it did bring out the worst in me. It's too easy to slip into bragging about your life and how well it's going.

Pretty mugh all my friends stopped doing that after their mid 20s. Eventually everyone figures out that social media status games give little.
