I haven't had TikTok since I got my new phone - shit was giving me anxiety. It's wild watching people move around like a school of fish. You can see the propaganda drop, and then they just run with it.

I had to remove TikTok from my phone when my former governement contractor employer passed along the requirement from the Federal Government. I think that was almost 2 years ago. Maybe more. I don't miss it. It's a shit show.

I downloaded it during lockdown - I spent way too much damn time on it. I noticed last year the shift of giving me serious anxiety.

The one thing I will always be grateful to TikTok for is making me realize I am pansexual - a very late in life discovery that explains so many things, and freed me from cis het men.

I've realized a lot about myself over the years😂 I'm obviously marries and love that man more than anything - I've just been able to see the beauty in so many people that my rural self never would have thought capable.

My life would have been so much better had I realized more about myself much, much longer ago. Of course the signs are obvious in retrospect, but my own trauma had my eyes clouded over. Now I think I'm too old (& too sick) to want a new relationship but it's still so good (for me) to be free of men!
