The Instagram Trap

Updated: Aug 19, 2021

Whenever I'm feeling low the very first thought that comes to my mind is Let's post something on the Gram


Same happened today, but rather than going with the flow and just posting, I took a pause and thought about it.


Although I know more than 90% of the people here don't give a damn if I post or not or do anything, in fact more than 95% of the people aren't even going to read this caption (this blog is originally a caption of my Instagram Post) but still my(or should I say OUR) brain have attached that "No. of Likes" to Validation.


We have linked to those fake number of likes from people who don't care about us to our source of Dopamine and Serotonin (feel good hormones).


But what else can we do 🤷 we are slaves of Social Media, actually that's only partially true. YES ! WE CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT


And that something is finding a hobby/work that satisfies you, no I'm not talking about the work that makes you happy. NO !! THERE'S A HUGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HAPPINESS ANS SATISFACTION


So I personally chase for Satisfaction and trust me it's the best decision that I have ever taken.


But but but at the end we are still here, go like this post, comment something, don't save (unless you have a crush on me, that I know isn't happening or else it will cause My Nexus Event).


So now you might be wondering ke

"Hipocracy ki bhi Seema Hoti hai"

Posting ke peeche Ka gyaan de ke Khudh post Kar Raha hai !!


YES !!! Because this is for Documentations and most importantly CONSCIOUSNESS purposes, ONCES YOU'RE CONSCIOUS ABOUT THE PROBLEM IT BECOMES WAY WAY EASIER TO TACKLE IT.


Take Care 💖

Stay Safe😷


Lemme tell you a secret:
