There is also something to be said for positive talk. I am on threads, and that website is a dumpster fire. It is nothing but women seeking views for money by pretending they are vulnerable (it's transparent, but the men they target are suckers), and enabling predators of which the site also has plenty of, and if it's not that, it's all rage and hate. I am watching someone who used to speak calmer devolve into being nothing left but anger and hate. I try to avoid such things cos I feel the hate start coming out, it feels bad, I become meaner, and emotionally uglier. When I am around positive people, that all calms and dissipates. I /feel/ better. The anger and depression and desperation for validation on that site literally just drove my emotions the rest of the way over the fence and I attempted suicide last week.
