There's a reason certain TikToks feel like they were made just for you 📱
Much of what we see on TikTok is written to be relatable. Descriptions like "you overthink everything" or "you struggle to rest" fit a lot of people, which is part of what makes them feel so personal. And once you engage with one, the algorithm is happy to show you more of the same, until your For You page can start to feel like proof.
A lot of experiences, like trouble focusing, feeling drained around people, or shutting down under stress, can show up for many different reasons. Stress, sleep, grief, burnout, and life transitions can all look surprisingly similar from the outside.
If a TikTok stuck with you, it might be worth gently asking: What part of this felt true for me? When did I first start noticing it? What else was going on in my life at the time?
Those questions are often where the real understanding begins. 🤍
