Khloé Kardashian on how social media negatively affected her self-esteem
'The Kardashians' star reveals how social media has not only affected how she views herself, but how it had an influence on how she dealt with the Tristan Thompson situation.
Social media has its pros and cons. Although it gives people the opportunity to connect with the world, unfortunately, there is a lot of cyber-bullying that goes on. Some users can be hateful, mean, and, in turn, that can affect one's self-esteem.
One of the stars who has battled to deal with trolls is Khloé Kardashian.
During an episode of her family's new reality show, 'The Kardashians', the socialite revealed how toxic social media has been for her.
“Social media used to be fun and silly," said Khloé.
She says things have changed.
“There are definitely always trolls and now everything is so critical."
The media personality says this even affected the way she dealt with her on-off relationship with the father of her child, Tristan Thompson.

She says the ridicule led to her suffering with anxiety and low self-confidence.
The reality star says it even impacted her looks.
“Is my hair done the right way? What is she doing with that laugh?" she said.
The model says she finds it better to stay out of the public eye.
"I think I've gotten to the point where it’s literally safer to stay at home," she said.
The 37-year-old star says although people say haters must be ignored, it is not always easy.
"I think that's obviously everyone's goal but it’s so much easier said than done.
"You don't know them, don't pay attention.
“Trust me, I try not to but when I walk down the street and then even paparazzi is heckling at you the same things you're trying to avoid, it’s so deteriorating on your self-esteem, your confidence, the way you view yourself,” she said.
