The
Melancholy
of
Douyin:
A
Reflection There
is
something
about
Douyin
that
seems
to
bring
out
the
melancholy
in
people.
Whether
it's
the
endless
scrolling
through
carefully
curated
feeds
of
perfect
lives,
the
pressure
to
perform
for
likes
and
followers,
or
the
constant
comparison
to
others,
there
is
a
sadness
that
pervades
much
of
the
platform. And
yet,
at
the
same
time,
there
is
a
beauty
to
this
sadness.
The
music,
the
videos,
the
poetry
that
people
create
on
Douyin
is
often
infused
with
a
sense
of
longing,
nostalgia,
and
a
deep
appreciation
for
the
fleeting
moments
of
joy
that
life
can
bring.
In
a
world
where
we
are
constantly
bombarded
with
messages
to
be
happy,
successful,
and
perfect,
perhaps
there
is
something
refreshing
about
acknowledging
our
sadness
and
our
imperfections. There
is
also
a
certain
catharsis
to
be
found
in
sharing
our
pain
with
others.
The
comment
sections
of
Douyin
are
filled
with
people
sharing
their
own
struggles
and
offering
words
of
comfort
and
support
to
each
other.
In
a
world
that
can
often
feel
cold
and
indifferent,
it
is
heartening
to
see
people
connecting
in
this
way. Of
course,
it's
not
all
roses
and
rainbows.
The
pressures
of
Douyin
can
also
be
overwhelming.
The
constant
need
to
create
content
and
to
stay
relevant
can
leave
people

exhausted
and
burnt
out.
And
the
negativity
that
can
sometimes
accompany
any
online
space
can
be
particularly
damaging
when
it
comes
to
mental
health. But
overall,
I
think
there
is
something
valuable
about
the
culture
of
Douyin
and
the
way
it
allows
people
to
express
their
emotions
and
connect
with
others.
It's
a
reminder
that
no
matter
how
perfect
someone's
life
may
seem
on
the
outside,
we
all
have
our
own
struggles
and
our
own
moments
of
sadness.
And
in
sharing
those
moments,
we
can
find
a
sense
of
solidarity
and
a
sense
of
belonging. So
if
you
find
yourself
feeling
melancholy
on
Douyin,
know
that
you
are
not
alone.
There
are
others
out
there
who
are
feeling
the
same
way,
and
who
are
ready
to
offer
a
virtual
hug
and
a
kind
word.
And
in
sharing
our
sadness,
we
may
just
find
a
little
bit
of
joy
and
hope
amidst
the
melancholy.
