As a healthy 29 year old, with healthy children, but many other problems in my life, I get so mad to see people on social media sites, throwing them selves a pity party. Seriously, it's not that bad. I understand we all have bad days, and some like to wollow in self pity. However, when you decide to wollow in self pity on a social networking site; such as Facebook; your friends are left wondering if you ever grew up.
I completely understand the need to vent, saying "I'm single and I am depressed and I have to get up in the morning and go to work, my life couldn't get any worse" or "OMG I have to be up in 2 hours and I'm still up on Facebook... FML" see that is not a "FML" moment. You see here is a "FML" momment, your 26 year old wife dies of a stroke, your 3 month old grandson dieing, finding out your 12 year old has cancer, finding your son hanging in his apartment, see these are "FML" moments.
When you post about something so stupid like it is the end or the world, you are discrediting yourself, and your ability to deal with situations like an adult. If you need to vent about how bad your life is, call a friend, send a private message. I personally know people going through the above situations, and until you can tell me that you are dealing with some MAJOR, I have offically canceled your pity party. I'm sorry no one wanted to go anyway, we can clearly see that train wreck from a mile away and we want to avoid it anyhow. Please for the love of God, keep you "awful life" to yourself, you are truly the only one that feels bad for you, and in most cases you are the one to blame for your FML moment.... Just sayin
