Does anyone else get overwhelmed with how much content is shared online? More so talking about social media, it feels like my algorithm is non stop ads, tik toks/reels, businesses. Nothing feels organic anymore and makes me feel like I’m not doing enough with my life outside of my FT job because I don’t share my own content.

This sounds kinda crazy, but the algorithms are in competition to make the most addictive app possible.

Addiction means more time on the app, more eyeballs on ads, more money for the app.

A big part of that addiction is this ‘fear of missing out’ feeling you’re describing, which might push you to make your own content, fueling back into the cycle.

You’re right, it doesn’t feel good. But you are living an amazing full life without creating content, I promise.

I will get a pay increase regardless so I want to negotiate in case I don’t get a “good” increase.

I started a new job recently and then had my PTSD seriously triggered, plus a panic attack. Felt so on edge and low on emotional resources for over a week that I wasn’t myself and apparently really rubbed a few people the wrong way so I was called in for a talking to 😣. I let people know there were some personal things going on, but didn’t mention the PTSD—very unsure if that’s something to share, or if I’d be judged for it or... I don’t even know. Has anyone else dealt with PTSD and had it impact them at work, and how did you handle it?
