This is the last one!!! Thank god, I am dying from these writing assignments!
Audience: Social media doesn't make me feel insecure. Julia: Well, I am happy to hear that. Do you struggle with depression or self-image problems? Audience: No, not really. Julia: That might help you feel like social media isn't a burden on your mental health. Just put yourself in someone else's shoes for a second. Imagine being a young teenage girl/boy who has body image issues or feels lonely. Audience: Okay, I can try that. Julia: Now, imagine you have a lot going on in your life. You're either graduating high school and going into college, or you're in college or working and you have this pressure on you. You need to get good grades or you need to work in order to pay bills or whatever. You're not eating right, you're up late, you're working hard for hours on end. You feel like you have no control over anything. And then you log onto social media. You see someone else your age, whether they're a celebrity or someone you know from school. And they seem to be living their best life. They're out for the weekend on a boat in the Florida Keys because they can afford it or they don't have to work. They're out having fun with friends or being in great shape because it's easy for them. You feel like you're not living the way you should because on every source of media, all you see are people living the exact opposite of you.

Ha! Your intro resembles how I feel when I reach the last set of a “real” HIIT cycle. Good for you...finishing the cycle.
