Setting Boundaries on Social Media to Reduce Stress

 

Setting Boundaries on Social Media to Reduce Stress

I’ve started setting boundaries on social media to reduce stress. Have you ever experienced negativity in your newsfeeds? Have you every been involved in groups where people getting into arguments? Possibly you’ve even made a status update and had people break out in an argument from your post? 

I’ve found in social media that many people hide behind their computers and say things they would NEVER say in person. It’s almost like the anonymity gives people this brass boldness to speak harshly and however they like especially if they are making comments to people they don’t know.  This can happen in any social media setting. I’m going to speak mostly about Facebook, since that is one I am on most of the time, and have the most experience with.

 

Setting Boundaries in a Group

I’m a member of SEVERAL groups on Facebook, and it’s very important to set boundaries. Maybe I should have started with personal timelines, but the groups really irritated me today, so I’m starting with the groups. Now, certainly if you are a drama queen, and LOVE to instigate the drama, this information won’t apply. However, I like to have peaceful surroundings and I’m constantly monitoring those situations I have control over. 

First of all, PLEASE do not AUTOMATICALLY ADD people to your group. It is common courtesy to send someone a message or ask them on their timeline to join your group and send them a link to it. If they desire to join the group, they will. Invite people. Let THEM make the decision. Yea. That is a pet peeve of mine. I think for that reason I don’t like the “Facebook parties” that have become so popular. You aren’t invited. You are added. That usually turns me off right away from whatever the are selling. Do you feel the same way?

When you DO join a group, unless you want a gazillion notifications, go immediately to the notifications and modify the group. You can keep the notifications just like they are (and you will get a notification on every post), you can turn notifications off, you can get friends posts notifications, or only highlights. 

If in a group, you can also decide if you want that group to be a “favorite” group, meaning it will show up more in your newsfeed. If the group gets annoying at anytime, but you want to still see what’s going on from time to time, you can “unfollow” the group. That way you will need to make a purposeful effort to look up the group to see what’s being talked about.  If they group gets really annoying or there seems to be a lot of negative drama in the group, you can also “leave” the group. At this time you have the choice to decide whether someone can add you back in the group, or whether no one can add you back to the group.  

A good group has good moderators that try and oversee the posts which may erupt into arguments or someone who may be doing spammy advertising. Even with the best of moderators, the groups can get out of hand especially with hot button topics like “which essential oil company is best”,  or groups where other hot topic themes may occur. 

That’s pretty much the basics for groups on Facebook. 

Your Personal News-feed

Social Media Reducing Stress

 

Negative people. It’s inevitable. You will find yourself having friend-ed people on Facebook or Twitter, who are negative. This could be a relative, or someone you went to high school with. It could even be your best friend. Just how do you handle your “friends” on Facebook. 

Be picky about who you accept as a friend on any social media. Do you know the individual sending a friend request? Do you have mutual friends or have you maybe “met” the individual in a group?

When negative or offensive conversations end up on your news-feed there are several actions you can take.

  1. You may want to determine if the offensive conversation is “out of the norm” from your friend. Maybe they are having a bad day, or are having difficulty handling a circumstance or situation in their life. I usually look at the patterns of this “friend”. If they are normal positive and have things to offer, I usually ignore one offense and chalk it up to a bad day.
  2. You can “unfollow” an individual. When you “friend” an individual there is an icon that is automatically turned on called “Follow”. It’s very easy to “unfollow” and they will not show up on your newsfeed anymore. You will have to actually put their name in a search to see their status updates and recent posts. This is a GREAT way to get constant “advertising” out of your feed. Some companies actually encourage their “reps” to post constantly about their products. Yep. That’s probably a product I’m NOT going to use. Just saying. If people want what you have, they will ASK you for more information. (yes many years ago, I’m sure I made this mistake and I’m very sure people have unfollowed me over it, and it’s OK. We ALL learn from our mistakes)
  3. You CAN unfriend people. Really. You don’t have to create drama and call out the individual. Just unfriend. You really don’t owe an explanation to anyone. Really you don’t.
  4. You can also set people to “acquaintances”. This way, if you don’t want everyone seeing or reading, or commenting on your posts, you can send your posts out “custom”, and sent to everyone but “acquaintances.
  5. You can BLOCK people. Yes. I’ve blocked people. This way you will not see what they post, and they cannot find you. Sometimes this is your only option if you find that an individual is “stalking” you or causing more drama and stress than you want.

I find by setting boundaries on social media that I can reduce my stress. I like peaceful supportive friends. I like to be a peaceful supportive friend. On occasion I may put up a rant. It’s rare. I love to share uplifting positive posts and articles. Everyone has a bad day from time to time. I love being able to look on Facebook and find encouragement.

Nurses Bullying Other Nurses Online

Nurses bullying other nurses. This is NOT a new problem. Social media has introduced a new way of bullying: bullying other nurses online. This time, the bullies get to hide behind a screen, so the words become more cruel and more justified by the perpetrator. We’ve all heard the horrifying stories of adolescents and children bullying at school and online which reaches a point of suicide of the victims. You would think once adolescents reach adulthood, they would grow up and this bullying nonsense would stop. It doesn’t stop. It continues. You would think nurses would have the professionalism to not be bullies. It’s not the case. Sad truth. The internet should be a bully free zone. We have the right to a safe environment, physically and emotionally.

Nurses bullying other nurses

Nurses Bullying Nurses

Nurses bullying nurses is not new. The WorkPlace Bullying Institute has an excellent article out, entitled NurseZone.Com: Nurse Bullying. An Ongoing Problem in the Health Care Workplace. According to this article from 2013, 18-31 percent of nurses have experienced some form of bullying in the workplace. While this article is speaking about workplace bullying, one very important comment made, points out under-reporting. “One problem that seems to perpetuate bullying in health care is the underreporting of threatening and intimidating behavior.”  

I’ve not seen online bullying between nurses to the extent of workplace bullying. However, when I’ve seen it, the words exchanged seem to be much more abusive and angry in nature. Do people feel hiding behind a screen somehow safeguards them, and they can get away with saying whatever they want?

 

Nurses Bullying Other Nurses Online

Social Media has evolved over the past 20 years. I remember when AOL had “chat rooms” and our worlds started to expand. The first MAJOR social media forum which continues today is Facebook. The other is Twitter. By far, since Facebook has no character limits, it’s an easy way for people to say whatever they want to say, whenever they want to say it, and write as much as they want. Nurses bullying other nurses has now advanced to a new level. Nurses hiding behind a screen, feeling anonymous, and saying whatever they want about other people.

Definition of a Nurse Bully

Nurses bullying other nurses

Bullies are bullies. Nurses bullying other nurses  It doesn’t matter if they are nurses, teachers, lawyers, or stay at home moms. Bullies are brutal, uncontrollable, exhibit low self-esteem (even though THEY feel like they are superior), and is really yearning for attention. Nurses aren’t exempt from this behavior. I’ve seen many examples recently where there is just NO filter on posts, and most I’ve seen have not been provoked. Out of the blue nurses feel the need to mention specific people. It’s one thing to make a status update for example that you are tired of working with lazy nurses (which honestly still is inappropriate as you should NOT be discussing your workplace online). It’s an entirely DIFFERENT situation to create an unprovoked status update, naming people, and then verbally attacking responders who don’t see eye to eye with the verbal attacks.

NOBULLYING.COM has an interesting article related to cyber-bullying called Adult Cyber-bullying: Harassment in the Information Age.  The article talks about Internet Trolls. Here is their definition:

“Adult cyber bullying often takes the form of “trolling”. The word comes from a reference to the method of catching fish by trolling a baited line in the water and waiting for a fish to bite. In the same sense, the Internet troll tries to “catch” an unsuspecting victim to demean and humiliate. Trolls are an annoying problem for those who use the Internet regularly. They are present on social media and in the comments sections of various websites, articles, blogs, and other online forums.“

This article also points out:  “It is also against the law to “harass,  annoy, or offend another person.”

Nurse Bullying Examples

For the past several years, I’ve seen nurses bullying other nurses online and have experienced it myself to the point I I’ve blocked people. I have several nurse bullying examples to share.

My personal beliefs on social/moral issues is just that. MY beliefs. I shared a picture one day that was beautiful to me. It was the picture of a tiny unborn baby. I make the comment that I loved all life, from pre-birth, until very elderly. I honestly wasn’t making a statement for or against abortion. It was just a beautiful picture, and reminded me of life. I had several nurses take offense to that, and start attacking my belief system, and verbally insulted me for my choice of picture. They harassed me to the point I blocked them. I was sent links to articles trying to belittle what they thought were my views. They questioned my intelligence as a nurse and I set boundaries. I wasn’t going to allow their opinions of me to have any sort of power over me. First of all, it didn’t require a response from those nurses. Second, my sharing was none of their business, and third, it didn’t shake who I was.

Recently, as nurses bloggers and nurse entrepreneurs have made their way to the forefront, so have their criticizers. I have one nurse friend who is awesomely talented and gifted in the Internet Technology arena. I’m SO thankful for her. She has the background of a clinical nurse and has been able to contribute greatly to the world of nursing as she bridges the gap between nursing and technology. Brittney Wilson, BSN, RN, (aka The Nerdy Nurse)  has authored a book called The Nerdy Nurse’s Guide to Technology. There was a nurse blogger did a book review,  and called into question the author’s credentials. She also commented against her branding (fun nurse cartoon caricature trying to also share serious content), and went into depth about a few spelling or grammatical errors.  She then went on to criticize that the author received some income as an affiliate marketer.  Truly, how a nurse entrepreneur creates  income was really not any business of that blogger. It wasn’t necessary for the book review. I re-read the review today. It didn’t reflect on the author to me. I know her.  She is real. When you don’t really know someone, you may not truly be capturing the whole picture when you decide to write.

A few months ago, there was a nurse who felt compelled to lash out at nurses who are overweight. She herself admits to having a past weight issue, and now that she has lost some of her weight, she somehow feels it is OK to speak up against overweight nurses. She was making a correlation between weight and nursing competence. That wouldn’t be as horrible as it sounds, but this nurse has been on a social media forum where she lashed out personally at people for being overweight. There is more to weight, than being fat & in this article I wrote about fat nurses.  What if, we as nurses supported our peers in victories and struggles, instead of throwing out judgement? What was the intention of lashing out against overweight nurses? Did it serve as a way to help? No… In my eyes it made me lose any respect I had for this nurse, and I have unfollowed and unfriended her on social media.

A nurse recently made an unprovoked comment, speaking out against Scrubs Magazine, and Katie Duke, where she called Katie “the fat one” (I have a snapshot of this, as it has been taken down after she received comments related to her criticisms).  Katie appears to be very comfortable in her skin, and is such a positive force. She is as confident as they come, and I’m so proud she know’s who she is, so I don’t believe that she would give that comment any power over her. Her fitness is stellar, and again, the critical writer is long gone…

In this same post, she also criticized the work of Gail Ingram, saying the information provided by her and Scrubs is regurgitation and ALSO sharing that Gail is where she is now, because she “failed” at other occupations, and now wants to become a social media star. If you will take time to look at Gail’s bio, you will find she never “failed” at anything. So, where did these statements come from?  Now, the comment would have been fine if she had created comments with specific examples. However, to CALL PEOPLE OUT, and name personal names, make inaccurate statements,  and then  fat shaming… it’s not acceptable. What was the purpose of the comments?

Nurses bullying nurses

I get that people have opinions. Opinions are cool, as long as you are not demoralizing, bashing, or offending people personally. Let’s choose instead to be supportive. Even with the situation I mentions about the picture I posted a few years ago. I would have accepted differing opinions. As a matter of fact, one nurse and myself did have civil adult conversation, and we were able to respect each other’s views. The other 2 nurses actually did not see it as an opportunity to respect each other. This is where I drew the line.

What Can We as Internet Savvy Nurses Do?

This behavior of nurses bullying other nurses online is totally unacceptable, and it’s time for nurses bring constructive attention to this issue. I understand now, by bringing some of these concerns public, I now stand to be a target. Note, I haven’t named any names here to call people out specifically for their actions. It’s NOT about WHO writes these types of posts, (because we re all guilty of loose words)  but to bring attention to a problem, and talk about solutions and opportunities.

I normally post on wellness and well-being issues. This subject actually is part of well being. It’s one of the dimensions of the Wellness Inventory Program.  It involves how we communicate, how we accept ourselves, how we feel, sense, and think.

What Does it Take to Be Bullied?

I was having a conversation with Gail Ingram today about this situation. She actually brought up a VERY valid point and it even reminded me of a recent event in my life. It really takes 2 people to have a bullying situation. One is the perpetrator/cyber bully. The other is the victim. So, what happens when the victim refuses to be the victim? It’s actually beautiful! There is NO bullying. That’s right! When you refuse to give time/attention to the one trying to bully, you don’t become a victim! So, even though these comments were directed at her, she didn’t give it any time or attention because she know’s who she is, she is confident in her work,  and she refuses to give her power and energy over to negative comments. POW!

I recently experienced cyber-bullying in the REDDIT forum. I’m a very conversational writer. I don’t generally write in a “scientific peer reviewed” format. I just love to write as if I were talking to you. Some of my articles were shared, and people began to come after me for not writing with “scientific” data. People wrote things directed to me when I commented on a few author’s writings. I decided that was not the forum for me. I’m relational and conversational. I will never enjoy being involved in forums that are so critical. So, I set my boundaries, and didn’t feel the need to justify anything I had written or said. (even though I could have provided scientific data). Their tone didn’t warrant my energy.

So, as a nurse, remember it takes 2 for a bullying situation. It takes the one who wants to say and write all the horrid words. It takes you to be the victim by becoming offended. So the next time someone writes/says something about you.. don’t give it energy. Let it go. Own your power! (that’s good advice for hospital bullying too)

A Word to all Nurses

  • Be intentional in what you post
  • Consider not ever speaking of your employment/co-workers
  • Consider not listing where you work in your social profiles
  • Remember everything you post is retrievable even if you delete it
  • With everything you write, ask yourself if your employer would be pleased or find no fault
  • With everything you write, ask yourself if your state Board of Nursing would find your words harmless
  • Remember as a profession, we are examples and people look to us as role models
  • Could your comments be considered slander
  • Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary. Chances are, if it’s not… it doesn’t really need to be said.

Another point to consider is that when you use a platform to speak out behind a screen, you are STILL speaking to REAL people. These are real people with real lives. They live real experiences and they have families. I’m sure Gail’s mom would have been devastated to read exaggerated comments posted about her daughter’s nursing accomplishments. These are real people. We are real people. You are a real person. YOU have families. I’m a mom. I know my nurse/daughter better than anyone. I take her accomplishments to heart, and would really be devastated to see her dealing with situations like this.

My online nurse friend, Renee Thompson, has written a book about Nurse Bullying, and protecting yourself. It’s more geared to bullying within the workplace, but is a worthy read.

 

Nurses: Take the high road. Be examples.

As nurses, it’s time to work together and be supportive of each other. Nurses do behave badly. I wrote this a few years ago about Creating a Genshai Nursing Culture. It’s so far from where we are today. Let’s begin to build up and support each other. Create bully-free zones/boundaries. This post isn’t an attack on individuals. It’s a constructive way to shine light on an emerging opportunity related to increasing access to social media, and how our behavior as a professional should be that…professional. We as nursing professionals need to become cognizant of our behavior, both at work and in our personal lives.

Take Home Lesson: DON’T ALLOW A BULLY TO HAVE POWER OVER YOU!

Best Self Help Books for Women On Life, Love, & Health

I’m an AVID reader! I love self-help books, so I thought I would share my favorites. So, here is my list of 10 best self help books for women on Amazon and you can find them all on Amazon. Most are available by on Kindle, if you want something instant! (I LOVE to hold a book in my hands, but sometimes I want the book NOW)  The 10 Best Self Help Books for Women on life, health, and nurturing that I’ll be sharing, are my personal favorite and have make a huge impact on my life!

1. Eat, Pray, Love   by Elizabeth Gilbert.  I was given this book for Christmas when it first came out in 2007. This book was instrumental in my life as I was beginning to re-think the path I was walking along in regard to my career and what I really wanted out of life. This is NOT a “how to” book, but rather a simple book sharing the journey of Elizabeth Gilbert. She reached a point in her life where she was questioning her choices in marriage, career, and life in general. Every page was a genuine outpouring of her desire search for meaning and love. I’ve also seen the movie and Julia Roberts did a great job capturing the essence of the book.

2. You Can Heal Your Life  by Louise Hay. A great description from Amazon about this book, “Louise’s key message in this powerful work is: If we are willing to do the mental work, almost anything can be healed. Louise explains how limiting beliefs and ideas are often the cause of illness, and how you can change your thinking…and improve the quality of your life!”  This is a favorite recommendation as a one of my best self help books for women on healing your life.

3. Herbal Healing for Women by Rosemary Gladstar.  I’m an herbalist and aromatherapist, and this book is a great overview of using herbal help to support common issues that is particular for women. I own Healing Streams Wellness Center for women, and this is a reference book I find valuable in that center. I personally have experienced periods of stress and burnout in my nursing career, and this reference has been a great support for me.  Great herbs at Mountain Rose Herbs.

4. Adaptogens: Herbs for Strength, Stamina, and Stress Relief   By far, this book gave me a great “ah ha” into understanding my own personal burnout experience. I felt like I was experiencing “adrenal fatigue” which I do know is not a “medically accepted” term at this time. I was experiencing extreme fatigue, exhaustion, and feelings of overwhelm. When I read this book, I cried. FINALLY, I found something that made sense to me and it explained my situation. I created teas and things like “adaptogen balls” that I could use to support and nourish my body.  I use Mountain Rose Herbs  for most of my herb purchases and really love their quality.

5. Mind Over Medicine  by Dr. Lissa Rankin.  I loved this book. This was about a woman’s journey, similar to Elizabeth Gilbert in Eat, Pray, Love, except it’s about a physician, which is great, because since I’m a nurse, I felt I related specifically to her struggle in Western Medicine.  A very moving journey of Dr. Rankin. I found this to be a one of the best self help books for women on life journey.

6. The Wellness Workbook  by John W. Travis, MD was a textbook I used during my training as a Wellness Coach. This book was instrumental in helping me heal during a severe time of burnout in my life. I use it daily as a tool when sharing with others now as a Wellness Coach. This is the one of the best self help books for women on wellness that I know of! Truly one of my favorites!

7. Healing Your Family History: 5 Steps to Break Free of Destructive Patterns by Rebecca Hintze. I love this book. Let’s be honest. Many of us have “stinkin thinkin” and it can come from destructive thought patterns developed from childhood. I found this book to be very helpful to me personally as I worked through the “why” of my though patterns. I have found this to be one of my favorite self help books for women on working through destructive thought patterns.

8. One Small Step Can Change Your Life: The Kaizen Way by Robert Maurer, Phd.  This is a nice little book that can be a life changer. When you learn you don’t have to do it all at once, or take huge impossible steps; you will be amazed at your progress in reaching goals! One of my favorite for sure!

9. Forgiveness: 21 Days to Forgive Everyone for Everything  This was a great book. Bitterness is as the root of so much stress and even physical problems. It’s imperative to explore this subject especially if we want to grow past what may be hindering us.

10. How to Hug a Porcupine: Dealing With Toxic & Difficult to Love Personalities Great book on learning to deal with the difficult people in our lives, and how to set boundaries.

11. Declutter Your Life: Reduce Stress, Increase Productivity, and Enjoy Your Clutter-Free Life  Clutter will destroy our peace! I totally believe this! It’s unreal what clutter does to compromise your peace and even productivity.  This is one of the best self help books for women on how to declutter.

I hope you enjoy my book suggestions for self help books for women! I certainly found them to be life changing.

Be Well!

Declutter Your Life

I’ve lived in a world of overwhelm so long, I didn’t realize I was drowning. Deciding to de-clutter my life is actually looking at ALL areas of my life. This includes my physical surroundings, my financial budget, emails, Facebook, and even work.

I read two e-books several months ago by a new Facebook friend, Shirley Harvey. The first was “The Happy Hoarder’s Guide to Getting Rid of that Crap”, and “The Spiritual Guide for the Clutter Buster”.  Both books started a journey for me which I really knew inside, needed to happen. I want you to know; I am NO WHERE NEAR having all my “crap” in order! But I’ve started the process.

I’m a little ADHD, so I can’t start a project and see it through right away. I start something, get bored, and move onto the next project.  At some point, I come back around and finish up what I’ve started. I work on my emails and social media off and on. Sometimes I will have pockets of time and will spend 15 or 20 minutes unsubscribing from email lists. I may take 20 or 30 minutes to look at all those pages I follow on Facebook and “unlike” those not relevant to me anymore. This frees up space and time for me later.

I decided to take a look at our “money drains” and let go of things we really don’t need. Take for instance the Home phone/cable/internet bill that companies neatly “bundle” for us. Ah, isn’t that sweet. They help us with a nice tidy package so we don’t have a separate bill for each one…Well; I decided I didn’t need that package anymore. So, my husband and I received a little gadget from our son in law and daughter at Christmas called Apple TV… It’s a one-time gadget to hook up to the TV, and you can play things like Netflix and Hulu, and other cool things through it.  So, a few weeks ago, I got rid of the home phone, and cable. We ordered a little digital thing from Clear TV. I purchased 2 of them for 19.95 plus shipping and handling. We received them today! We get 26 channels. We have tons of movies to watch through Netflix. I pay for internet only now.  My bill went from $204.00/month to $55.00/month and I increased the speed of the internet! (You have to have internet for the Apple TV to run) I also use internet for my blogging and other business stuff!

simple is beautiful

Today, I was talking about my iPhone on Facebook. Found out I could get unlimited talk and text from Cricket for $50.00/month for the usage of 2 phones. When my ATT contract ran out, I was going to switch. We have unlimited plans for 2 phones, and its $165.00/month. Well, I called ATT today and asked if they had an unlimited talk/text plan, and I found out I couldn’t do it since we had “smart phones”… What I did find out was that we could get rid of most of the data and as long as we use our data sparingly, we could change our plan to $65.00/month… How cool is that? So I did that! We will be saving another $95.00/month.  Wow! That feels SO freeing.

I went through a really crazy DE clutter on Facebook and Pinterest the other day.  I unfollowed about 400 pages I liked on Facebook. I had never cleaned through those, and I couldn’t believe how many I had “liked” over the years I’ve been on Facebook. So, that feels better. I also unclogged my Pinterest account, and only “follow” those pages who really “Pin” things I’m interested in.  Whew!

My next two projects are my office and my kitchen. I’m starting with my kitchen tonight. Would you believe I’ve got about 30 sharp or serrated knives? WHY do I have so many? WHY do I need to keep so many? I don’t!!! So, I’ve got a box, and the “extras” are going there, and going to Goodwill!  Also, why do I have 3 different ½ cup measurers? I don’t need but 1. OK. Out the other 2 go. I don’t need duplicates. I don’t need things I never use. Out they go. My goal is clear countertops, and a peaceful view. (or if any of you locally know where I can donate this kitchen stuff for people to get it free, PLEASE let me know)

backtobasics

I LOVED Shirley’s books because what I realized is that I am hindering my peace and flow by all this clutter. So, I’m back at it again. I’m setting small goals (Kaizen Steps), working toward my goal to work at home by de-cluttering my finances and creating an atmosphere of peace in my surroundings.

What goals do you have? Do you need to de-clutter? Don’t know where to start? Does it feel TOO overwhelming? Let me help you begin your process. Realizing WHERE to start is the first step. I was able to help a coaching client a few years ago after she took the Wellness Inventory. We developed a strategy. She utilized Kaizen Steps, and it wasn’t long until she had her home in order! That wasn’t MY priority for my life then, but now it is.  Isn’t it awesome how we are individuals, and we are all at different places in our lives? I’m organizing my space and my place for a new chapter in my life! What are you ready to change?
