....To feel depressed after watching Celebrities Instagram stories?!

As title really.

Just wasted 10 mins of my life watching various celebrities Instagram stories and just feel really blah now.

In fairness, I know why it is, it's because my social life the last few weeks has been a bit blah. But seriously, I watch them every day and all it seems to be is gorgeous lunches/ dinners/ shopping, getting hair/ make up done by hairdressers and make up artists, partying with friends, holidaying in glamorous places and I'm just feeling eurghhhh.

I know this is ineveitable really, but it doesn't normally make me feel blah. I'm
normally just a bit nosey and enjoy watching them.

Like I said, I've normally got a pretty busy, active social life, nights out, dinners etc but lately everything seems to have died down, no social plans in the diary until October and I'm just feeling a bit 'blah'

I really want to be rich (not so bothered about being famous!) and to spend my time shopping, getting pampered and partying. Instead, I spent last night doing two hours of cleaning and then collapsed on the sofa with a tub of Ben and Jerry's watching the soaps, tragic.

I know IABU, but does anyone else feel this way sometimes?!

So don't watch it. There will always be someone who has more, or a seemingly more glamourous life.

It's all fake.

It is total bollocks -take it from someone who knows. Honestly.

WTF did narcissists and solipsists do before Instagram ?

I deleted my Instagram as was making me more down. I have a health condition which makes every day life hard, seeing people's 'perfect' lives on there made me feel worse.
