OBSESSED
First of all, let me introduce myself. I'm a BTS army girl. I don't think it's hard to guess as you can clearly understand it from my feed itself.
But let me tell you, this present me has a lot of difference from me I used to be in past; from the “obsessed me”
So with this story, I may like to show you what my recent past looks like. Before that,

I decided to write this when yesterday I talked with another army girl I was in contact with before. We both have a lot more relatable characters and we used to enjoy talking with each other. But we lost our bond when I deactivated my social media. I had told her that before deactivating. To my surprise, yesterday when I'm scrolling through stories, I got a pm from her in another app.
I shared my excitement with her and we started talking. But she seemed to have lost her old interest.
When I asked her if there's any problem,
She then sent me a long message with a lot more sad emojis.

It concludes that she was suffering from being an obsessed fandom. The only thing happening in her daily life is that watching BTS videos, memes, chatting in the army group and updating every single leaf of the happenings in BTS. She lost interest in everything and her marks started to drop. It adversely affected her life. She needed to control but she wasn't able to change a little. So she was asking me for help to stop fangirling over them.

Not only ARMY but also BLINK,MOA, EXO-L and many more are there as K-pop fandoms.
And I've known some fandoms struggling from the obsession.

To be honest, I used to be an obsessed army in the beginning of this lock down. I started watching their videos just to avoid my stress. When I started being obsessed, I've been too much into their V-live videos and run bts. I even complete more than five episodes in a turn. And then it's been a real struggle for me to keep up with my studies and other hobbies. For me back then, a day starts with BTS videos or memes and end with songs. I started Weverse account and become a member of army chat. It only made the situation more worse. I become unbothered of my life and I've been in the dream land, as all say. My social media statuses were all filled with bts matters. I got a little detached from my friends and become more close to army friends. If I conclude, I become an over obsessed fan.

Lately I started to feel something terrible. I got my consciousness and realised I may become a toxic fan. Then I began another quest for stopping fangirling. But none of them made sense to me. I then put control on myself. Rather making BTS only my routine, I brought another hobbies and then made BTS bing watching another part of my life. Rather stopping from being fan girling, I controlled myself.
I deactivated my social media and restarted being little more socialized. I started another hobi and slowly I succeeded in controlling myself.

So my dear fangirls who are struggling being obsessed, I know it's really hard for you to stop it. I know you can't stop it. But realise,
they are now who they are only because they went through many hardships. Not only BTS, but all other kpop. If you just waste your time only being into them, then you should seriously think about your future. You don't want to stop fangirling. You just want to control yourself. Keep your mind in your control. Keep supporting our Oppas and Eonnis. But also keep your future secured.
