Why I'm leaving Facebook

Like my title? I just like to copy the dramatic headliners I've laughed at so much lately. Something completely opposite of what you will read on the blog post. Except, I'm really leaving FB. I'm not saying I will be gone for a long time, I'm not saying I will be back either. I just have to go ok?Facebook is too much for me to deal with. I've thought about this for a long while and I know without a doubt I need to be off right now. I live in a world that isn't like most. I find it hard knowing where I fit in right now.  I love staying connected with people I really do. It's just if most of you saw what I read and the people I know you would be very overwhelmed.

I was given a healthy child in 2009. In 2011 I was given a very fragile child. It turned my whole world upside down.  I don't live a normal life. I also don't want it to be the only life I lead. I'm in a limbo land wondering where I fit in. Reading posts on Facebook has become too overwhelming for me. So much sadness and negativity is around. I advise if you know anyone dealing with disabilities in the home give them a hug, call them, do something to let them know you care. I cannot say what I read, but lots of people in that community are suffering so badly right now.  Some parents that have left this life because it was too hard for them. I hate seeing so many that suffer. It hurts my heart so much.  I see so many posts that it's become very difficult. It's also difficult to read comments with how ignorant people can be. I love reading comments from a lot of you.  I do believe that FB is a surface type way to say I did my part by 'liking' something. I am not perfect and I just believe in general a lot of us should be more involved like we used to be before social media. All in all I just am done with it.

I'm not upset with anyone, just feeling like I need to focus on other things in my life. Facebook feels a lot like highschool. And I didn't do well in highschool. If you want to be more involved in my life message me and I can give you my info.

Love to all! I will be deactivating my account in a few days.

  1. I understand, at least a little. Facebook can consume our time and energies. I find my self staying on too long and comparing myself to others while I am at it. I will follow your blog and, hopefully, will cross paths with you and see you face to face. I have always enjoyed being around you and hope you feel the same. :)
