Though on instagram I am a sucker for food/anime/animal content, I also follow a lot of people who are into trauma

Specifically, on ways to heal trauma and grow from it

I find that I get very triggered, especially when it comes to trauma involving the lose/grief of a mother. As my own mother was a monster. And my brief of an abusive mom is not something everyone can relate to. The complexity and the pain

It's to a point where a lot of this "healing" content is actually super triggering. And I don't want to do it, engage in, or see it anymore

I already unfollowed one account. May need to do the rest with the others

Much of social media, like Instagram, is not real. People exaggerate things to attract attention, followers and sponsors. exactly by triggering readers' emotion, and anger, etc. It would be better not to take social media too seriously.

Too much social media makes you deluded. Cutting out for a while is good. Keep your mind healthy.
