Celebrity/Gossip web page addiction

Everyday I look at celebrity/ gossip web pages. i mostly do it to have something to do on the internet while Im waiting for something. However I have seriously become addicted to the negativity these pages project. I find myself feeling bad about my body and judging people alot more since I have been viewing these pages. I know it is sooo stupid but I really cant go a week or even a day without looking at these!! They make me feel like crap because I stay on them for awhile and just sit there. I am a skinny girl but I have started to realize that I keep thinking Im fat. Which I KNOW that I am not! ahhhhh does anyone else agree that these pages are negative and I should stop looking at them or am I just being dumb?

I do agree that they are negative and you SHOULD stop looking at them. By looking you surround yourself with that negativity everyday and its not going to make your recovery any easier. Plus by looking you show the media there is a demographic wanting this type of site.

I steer clear of news and all that goes with it most days. I try my hardest to surround myself with postive things which instills positive reactions in my life.

If you know its causing you problems I cant understand why you would want to look.

I understand what you're saying and I am going to stop looking at that crap. It is not positive to look at trash journalism. I should know better I am a journalism major! ha ha! I do love reading the newspaper and watching the news though Im gonna focus more on that kind of journalism to make myself a better student and less on trash about people I dont care about.
