Oversharing Online
It's so much easier for me to talk to online strangers about my problems than my friends. I think online, people with similar struggles tend to gravitate towards each other and eventually form a kind of community which I'm really thankful for
It's unfortunate that oversharing online is often interpreted as a cry for attention. In my case, most of the time I literally do not want attention; I want people to know what my deal is without necessarily interacting with me. I want to be silently understood from a distance
The #1 thing I want to avoid when I talk about my shit online is concern. I don't want anyone to worry about me. If I'm making work about my emotions or tweeting about them, I'm fine. Expressing myself is how I make sure that I remain fine. For me, it's a good and healthy process
