Honestly that sounds a lot like me. I had a decent job but was underperforming, burnt out and depressed. I started at some point pulling out my facial hair as stress coping mechanism.

I ended up saving up enough to be without a job for a few months, quit and I’ve not looked back.

My hair is regrowing, I’m feeling less stressed than ever, I’ve got a positive outlook on life again and I’m finally getting back into hobbies.

if you’re able to, talk to a mental health professional, share what you’re feeling and let them help and guide you. If not, talk to your partner (if you have one) and get their opinion on how you’re going.

I also acknowledge that my struggle is different to yours, and the decisions I’ve made are working for me. I think you need to talk to people and get their views on how you’re doing, and figure out what’s best for you

Under filters/blocks in the app I use (Boost) there’s a section for blocked words. This is the list I have, and find it does a pretty good job:

  • Democrat
  • Democrats
  • Elon
  • Musk
  • Nazi
  • Putin
  • Republican
  • Republicans (need to add this one)
  • Russia
  • Tesla
  • Trump


I’ve been able to filter out certain words/phrases to help get rid of most of the political posts.

Happy to share if anyone is wanting
