Oh, Kathryn. I maxed-out claps for this because I am with you 100%. I have been experiencing many more “lows” than “ups” these days, and even though I rely on social media to promote my stories, etc., there are days when I detest it and everyone on it.

I just read a story here that received 3.5k claps from a woman who feels compelled to show her naked body on Twitter, Instagram, etc. That’s all it was about. How she wants people to see her nipples, etc., it gives her a thrill, etc., etc. No doubt it will be curated in eight topics.

I’ve not been curated in months nor do I expect to be. I’m just slogging along here with my husband and our three cats. I keep going for them but there are days when I can barely get out of bed. I, too, have been waking in the wee hours and have been unable to get back to sleep. I lie there, thoughts racing, jumping at every sound in the dark.

I’m sending you a virtual hug so you know that you’re not alone. Love this story and I appreciate your honesty.
