The Importance of Sensitivity When Sharing Personal Experiences on Social Media

Updated: May 2, 2023

In today's digital age, social media platforms have become an outlet for people to express their emotions and share their experiences. However, it's important to consider the impact of sharing personal grief and sorrow in a public domain.


A person may have intended to seek comfort and support from their friends, the response they received was not what they expected. Instead of offering consolation, their friends asked for the video to be forwarded to them, suggesting that the content was more of a novelty than a genuine expression of grief.





This highlights the need for sensitivity when sharing personal experiences on social media. While it can be therapeutic to express one's emotions, it's important to consider the potential impact on others and to ensure that the content is appropriate for a public domain.


Rather than sharing personal sorrow, it's advisable to post videos that inspire and uplift others. For example, sharing stories of people who have overcome challenges or offering words of encouragement can be a positive way to use social media to help others.


In short, while social media can be a powerful tool for sharing our experiences, it's important to use it responsibly and considerately. By posting content that inspires and uplifts, we can make a positive impact on others and create a more supportive online community.
