in all honesty twitter intimidates me to the point I think so many times before posting a tweet. I am for some reason really scared to say something, seeing how some people react to small mistakes or even as simple as ghost tweeting someone. it& #39;s scary.
if someone tweets anything like "oomf annoying" or "can oomf shut up" , even if it& #39;s not meant for me, it screams at me saying I& #39;m the one, and I end up deleting tweets and going on a hiatus. especially with my history with social anxiety, it& #39;s not helping at all.
so I really can& #39;t imagine how scared some people would be if they get that hate in a large number. even if they truly feel that they did a mistake and owned up to it. I guess it& #39;s just how the internet works, you can& #39;t stop anyone from saying what they want.
sometimes it can only do more harm than good. I remember when I got bullied by a gc for a simple reason, but I couldn& #39;t even stand up for myself and asked a friend to help me, that& #39;s how terrible my self confidence is. it& #39;s really scary and I want it to change.
this is the very first time I& #39;m tweeting as me, without any facade, without thinking through and just tweeting what I think, rambling in other words. I don& #39;t know why I& #39;m doing this but I hope this thread helps you understand how scary twitter can be sometimes
especially to people with different cultures, it& #39;s really intimidating. it& #39;s scary how the language I use, the way I type, the tweets I post has always been influenced by others on this app and what people think about me. I want to throw that away.
we come here so that it& #39;s a safer place for us to be ourselves, but end up putting on another facade to hide ftom another one. it& #39;s exhausting. and that& #39;s why I go ia time to time, and as much as it is exhausting, I can& #39;t deny the amazing people I met here.
again I don& #39;t know why I& #39;m rambling all of this, probably because this quarantine has finally gotten to me, or maybe I was just tired of keeping up with everyone. anyways im going back to sleep.
