Yes! It can!
I know this is most probably not something you wanted to hear, but too much of anything is never a good idea, no matter how positive or harmless it might be or look. There are thousands of inspirational and motivational accounts on all social media, and they are all posting different kind of messages at least once a day, so you might find yourself reading tens of motivational messages daily.
The messages are great, don't get me wrong, and they can help you exactly when you need it, and with the words you need to hear, but if every account in your list is "tackling" a different "problem", you can see in a few minutes messages that are telling you to take action, to stay still, to be calm or to act upon it, to think of what you desire, or to stop thinking so it can materialize, that you will get it fast or that it will take some time, that it is regarding your career, or your love life, your mental health or physical health ... see where I am going with this?
Sometimes more is not helping you understand better, or get there faster, it just makes you more confused about everything, and all that anxiety and depression that you are trying to fix, you are actually making it worse.
But, how do you know which messages are for you? The ones you feel something towards to. Those are the only ones that truly are for you.
When you are scrolling through your flux or the list of followers' activity you might feel attracted towards a certain post, without even seeing what is says. And when you read it, you have that feeling like that was for you. The calm and sense of peace and serenity is a sign that that message is for you. If you feel a bit anxious, and you almost can't wait to go through the message, or if you don't instantly feel something, you actually have to think of something to relate to the message, then that message isn't for you.
Choose the ones that are meant for you, otherwise you risk to get confused and drained of energy.
