How do you stop arguing with people on social media? (lemmy.world)

Whenever I see a comment on social media that I think is wrong, I feel the need to correct it. These arguments can go on for days, even weeks, and if I don’t win the argument, I get overly fixated on it, wondering where I went wrong and so on.

welcome to lemmy! this is a slower kind of forum so you may not find yourself doing it as much here :)

i'd say you just need to slow down and breathe for a bit, then ask yourself whether this affects you. i know it's a cliche and it's hard when you're "in it", but remembering to just breathe a bit helps a lot with a lot of things. it helps you put things in perspective.
