Blogger/Youtube depression...
18.9.14
Hmmm, perhaps a little too dramatic with the blog post title there...however after talking about this topic with a few fellow bloggers I'm starting to see that i am not the only one who feels this strange emotion.
I am not ashamed to admit that i am obsessed with watching vlogs, look books and generally snooping around others lives...and the reason for this is...well their lives are quite simply more interesting than my own. That is a sad, but true statement.
As much as these vloggers give me great enjoyment, after the seven or so minutes of footage are over, i am left with an overwhelming feeling that my life is, well, a little pants in comparison.
Now, i know that this is just a small snippet of their daily life, but am i the only one who feels this way?...i cant imagine so.
I have started vlogs on my channel recently and to be honest i could never commit to daily, or even weekly ones, as, lets be honest...who wants to see my adventures to tesco....I'm really not exciting enough to fill daily content. Knowing this fact however does make me feel a little insignificant and again leaves me thinking "why isn't my life that exciting"?
I guess what I'm looking for is feedback, feedback that I'm not alone in this crazy thought pattern and that someone else's life is as ordinary as mine lol! Do you guys ever compare yourself to the mega successful bloggers/youtubers out there?
I guess I'm struggling with the change in blogging...i started my blog in 2008- when the blogging world was completely different. Back then, there was only a handful of us with teeny, tiny, rubbish quality images showing blurry lipstick swatches...now it seems such a large community and the skills they possess now are on a professional level, I'm not sure i can keep up. Also at 28, i have to admit i feel a little old *gulp*.
Anyway, rant over...wow thank you blogger for being my very own counselling session ;)
