i took a break from Tiktok, Insta, FB groups, Discord, and Twitter
for a time (about 6/5 months)
for one i found i was completing tasks i would normally put off
my sleep schedule is pristine af
i be sleepy around 9:30pm now and out by at LEAST 10:30pm
i found my love for books again
finding a good book you cant put down is akin to going down a rabbit hole on YT or TikTok in my opinion maybe better
my anxiety wasnt as bad
this is more personal but i find that sometimes having so many things and people in one place with only a scroll or click away is v overstimulating for me
so taking breaks from socials helped me a lot in that regard
but like anything balance is key
i dont mind going online if i have done what i needed to do and just wanna connect and see whats up culturally

Honestly deleting social media (especially instagram) has widen my capacity for new Real world things in so many ways. Being more creative, having more original ideas, honestly just more time To think!!! I think the first month was an adjustment because it was like a dopamine cleanse, lots of overthinking and feelings of intense boredom
A lot of the things projected onto me I realized were not even insecurities of my own but harbored in my brain because of tiktok/instagram
I did worry about having FOMO and not seeing what my friends were up to but I can also just text them and ask ??? I feel like instagram especially is a very PASSIVE and superficial way of connecting with people. I definitely feel like my social circle decreased exponentially without it but for the better π§ββοΈ
