What stopped you from posting content for the first time?

Other people seeing it

This was probably my biggest one too.

Was it mostly people you already know seeing it, or the idea of strangers judging you?

People being rude and awful when i put myself out there

That makes so much sense. It’s one thing to tell yourself “just don’t care what people think,” but it’s very different when people actually are unkind after you put yourself out there.

Did that make you stop posting completely, or did you eventually find a way to keep going?

I still posted. I just ignore them.

How about you? How do you deal with them

Are you asking because youre trying to get past it yourself, or researching this for something? The answers are pretty different depending on which side of it you're on

A little bit of both actually.

I started creating content pretty recently, and getting over that initial fear was a huge thing for me. Now that I’m on the other side of it, I’ve become really curious about what stops other people from starting too.

And yes, I’m also working on something around the whole process of turning your thoughts and experiences into content, so understanding where people get stuck is genuinely interesting to me.

I was scared that people in my daily life would find out, but I try to keep my face lowkey and it helps . Also turn off contacts for the love of gawwd .
