pickI was looking for a fun read and this totally fit the bill!
I picked it as my #socialmediafocus read for #booked2019 and as the title suggests it asks what ripple effects come from the image we project online, so it really got me thinking about my own accounts and how comfortable I actually am with transparency online vs in irl interactions.
Cinfhen You‘re killing it!!!! #BookChallengeSlayer 🙌🏻 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage Great pick and review. I have had those discussions with myself about what I post. When life is tough I hardly say anything, and sometimes that‘s when I should. Be Momma taught me not be a “whiner” so I generally keep quiet. (edited) 6y
IndoorDame @BarbaraTheBibliophage I totally know that feeling! Outside of litsy my only active account is an instagram where I try to post a really transparent account of life with chronic illness. I started partly to connect with others going through the same thing & partly to help raise awareness, but I‘m only actually able to let myself do it so freely cause I‘ve kept it account completely separate from my personal life & my friends/family don‘t follow 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @IndoorDame I did exactly the same thing with a Twitter account when I was 1st diagnosed with RA 10 years ago. It helped to process the experience with people who “got me.” While my friends and family love me, they didn‘t really know how to help. #spoonie #chroniclife 6y
IndoorDame @BarbaraTheBibliophage wow, really? hearing that is actually really comforting! sometimes I do feel odd about keeping it private, but it works for me for now :) 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @IndoorDame I‘m glad it‘s a comfort. I think you do whatever works for you! 😘 6y
