Publisher's summary

Self-check! Do you get mini-heart attacks when the wi-fi goes down? Do your fingers prickle to catch up on the latest feeds? Does your mind snap when you find yourself in the middle of an online bashing session? Do you feel overwhelmed to conform to an ideal self-image? Do you sense a lack of sincerity from chats and posts?

If feeling the need to curate your life sends you on a mental fiasco, it might be time to ask yourself, Is the “Reel” Life Ruining Your Real Life?

Social media has done a wonderful job at giving everyone an equal chance to be seen and heard. However, likes, filters, and blocks might render us helpless when reality decides to bite us on the nose. If you’re eager for an inside scoop on this worldwide phenomenon, look no further!

This book is your fast, friendly, and complete guide to everything you need to know about the illusions of social media! Discover chapters filled with eye-opening evidence, advice, and testimonies on:

  • All the whats, hows, whys, and ifs of social networking

Life’s far from picture-perfect, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t worthwhile.

Take this time to look within yourself, set your own standards, and draw healthy boundaries for yourself and with others.

Be accepting. Be amazed. Be alive.

Reality awaits you!
