Really struggling

does anyone else feel like this .? I’m really struggling to feel present in my life . It’s like I’m living in a virtual life and nothing feels real anymore. I have two children and I’m married. But feel nothing is structured anymore . There’s no connections anymore . I’d love to come off all social media but I can’t as most of my children’s groups / hobbies etc are organised on fb . Any suggestions?

I’ve felt similar in the past. Also have 2 small kids and married. I left Facebook 8 years ago and only have Instagram now re social media, more for pics. I limit scrolling to one hour a day. I don’t upload every tiny thing anymore, just post major events. Feel much better.

Thankyou . I’m trying to do that too . Pleased you’re feeling better . I’ve spoke to husband yesterday and he understood. He doesn’t feel the same but he feels overwhelmed with emails from work .
