I think you'd find that a slight shift in perspective on this will do wonders. Try imagining that the person posting is your best friend on a good day. Or your mom. Or your dog. Or anyone/thing else you unconditionally hope receives good things in life. That might turn some of them into boosts to your happiness (I want good things for person x: imagine good things happening to person x = good thing for me).

That’s a great perspective to have! Thanks for sharing!

Seems like the site is an outlet for gratitude. So many people are practicing gratitude there!

Don’t doomscroll through their gratitudes if that’s distracting for you, and if pen and paper works better for you then that’s amazing!

Goal is to just be grateful :)

Yes that makes sense. Thanks for sharing!

It’s just toxic positivity and bragging. Gratitude is useful for people with bad lives to find something small to cheer themselves up. It’s not for healthy people who love their jobs and their family to flex on the people who can’t think of anything better than overnight oats to be grateful for. This site is not useful for anyone who actually needs help and I hate it.

I don’t believe it is anyone’s intention to brag here. Being grateful and expressing that grattitude does not necessarily equate to showing off. In fact most of the users use pseudonyms so if they really wanted to brag they would’ve done so using Facebook or something. Just my 2 cents. Thanks for sharing!

Just FYI that this post comes across quite aggressively. I assume it wasn’t your intention.

Hope you have a good day.

Looking at the best in everybody. Nice. Thanks for sharing!

I understand, the goal isn’t to compare yourself with others but to encourage each other. Thanks for sharing!
