I actually loved this deep dive into your relationship with social media. I can appreciate how its utility in your life has changed over time and it can be challenging to adapt to maintain healthy boundaries with something that's not supposed to overrun your life. Loving you and supporting your journey <3

Amal this is so beautiful. I have so many feelings about it that I can't really fully describe, probably because of the noisiness in my brain caused by the world. You described everything I've been feeling lately and more, I truly feel at home when I read your stuff. You make me want to write again, more than just entries hidden away in my journal. You also made something finally click in my head about how I want to use social media and pick up my phone less. Keep writing Amal, your words are something special <3

Sarah, thank you so much for this lovely comment - it made my week. Typical advice that I am also giving to myself: Write! Share! It's scary, but worthwhile and after a while, it stops being so daunting.

PS: the words in your journal are as worthwhile as anything else. ˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚
