Reframe Comparing Yourself To Others On Social Media
You scrolled past a post and felt worse about your own life within about four seconds, and you are not sure why that one hit so hard. This names exactly what got compared, the context almost certainly missing from the post, and gives you one concrete action, not a vague suggestion to feel better. Good for anyone whose mood tracks their feed too closely.
