THE SONG ABOUT DELETING TWITTER FOR YOUR MENTAL HEALTH
a couple days ago i said farewell to the horrible brainrot app ive spent almost every day on for the last 9 years (would’ve been 10 in august). ultimately, i decided that not every thought needs to be broadcasted to the world (or my friends). or to have things i’ve said in my teen years still be searchable or relevant. i just don’t think i can use social media like twitter in a healthy way right now, and that’s okay! i think that deactivating my account was the best step forward for me at this moment. also twitter is generally a cesspool.

Proud of you, some people do not understand the extent of which social media/phones can immobilize one’s life. It can be incredibly difficult to say goodbye to a social media platform that you have spent an enormous amount of time on for years. I am going through it with Instagram and my phone in general. I just love to hear things like this.

i found myself overwhelmed and sick of social media too
i recently began to ask myself why am i using all these apps and do i really need all of them, and i started realizing that the things i’ll miss out with these apps is so much more than without them, i knew i had the idea that my worth was tied to my online presence and i’m happy that i’m getting rid of that mentality.. i had so many memories in my snapchat account but i ended up deleting the account and the app because if i didn't do it than i may never, later that day i removed my twitter accounts and the app from my phone and i’m so glad i did, and i replaced them with healthier and less time consuming apps till i decrease my screen time gradually

delete your account on platforms that undermine the best version of you
I did this earleir in the year with X (Twitter). — Actually I thought I was just "deactivating" my account and that I could return later. But apparently X fully deletes the account after 30 days. This was unintended, but I'm really glad for how it worked out. Don't miss it at all. Where I'm at now with the other platforms, IG and FB, is that I'm genuinely asking that question — can I use these in a way that builds up and moves me toward the "best version of me" or is it an overall net negative? I'd like to reframe my engagement so it becomes a positive, but if I cannot do that I am going to deactivate my accounts.
