It’s proven that social media increases depression and loneliness. Just live your life and stop worrying about others to compare yourself, you will never be happy this way.
Thank god I grew up riding bicycles with my friends, playing outdoor games at night, and not getting a phone until my junior year. Parents need to emphasize this balance more. It’s crucial. So unhealthy to grow up in the age of social media
An0nym0us Pers0n what I’m saying is that the very few who still do this are lifestyle gurus and Instagram “models” but other than that I’ve been noticing more honesty about not being perfect and more talks about mental health, sometimes in the form of a self deprecating joke but I like it, it’s much more relatable and honest.
yeah but still there’s a significant different between your mindset when on social media vs not on it. i got of socials like a few months ago and i feel so much better. it sounds stupid but social media is truly a waste of time
I've stopped using social media back in 2012 at age 23, I never share my life, kids, husband or my house anywhere. I still don't have social media accounts. Quiting social media is easier than quiting smoking.
I agree. As they say, what people don’t know, they can’t destroy. Just how many ‘perfect’ couples and lives on screen are suffering greatly behind the scenes. They portray unrealistic standards just to please their viewers. 😞
I totally agree ! I don't have those apps either, except for this one & when I tell them they get shocked and ask me how I survive without any... simple I live a real life, dot pretend to please anyone and once in while with a sweet, hot coffee while I have a conversation with some I care !!
This video was the reason why I deleted my Snapchat, instagram, Twitter, and tik tok accounts. I’m only 18, but I’ve never felt happier. Highly recommend this to anyone, no matter your age. I’m never going back
I deleted Twitter, facebook, Instagram. Never used TikTok. Only kept WhatsApp which I later muted 95% of the statuses . My life has never been happier😁
I deleted Facebook, snapchat like 4 years ago, never used instagram (literally I dont know how it looks like). The only thing I use in Internet is TH-cam and Google. Im 24 now.
True. People need to stop being so insecure nowadays to the point that they have to share fake photos and videos on social media. It's just weird how people think their self-worth and self-esteem is gained through posting those fake photos and videos.
My husband and I went out for breakfast and we noticed that everyone around us were on their phones. Father with his young son, mom & dad and teen son, young couple with their toddler who was on a tablet. I felt so sad for the kids. What a perfect opportunity for families to talk and connect. We didn't give our son a cell phone until he entered high school. We don't allow phones at meal times or when we're out at restaurants. It's just gotten so out of hand. It's no longer for convenience, it's an obsession, an addiction.
How did you get your son to not be bitter about not giving him cell phones until high school and all the rules? If i ever have a kid I want to do the same thing, but Ive seen my relatives' kids be unbelievable spiteful against their parents because of this.
Not letting your kid use the phone at the table is an error. You don't need to put rules, you need to make him appreciate the time spent connecting. I never had any rules about phones, and still every time I sit at the table with my family or friends I am the only one wanting to talk face to face, socialice and stop using the phones. What you are doing to your son is useless.
@@mochi8632, THAT is your problem. "Never had rules." When dinner is served in my house cellphones are not allowed at the table. Do so and YOU and your PHONE may be going out the door. You will get only one warning.
@@donotneed2250 Why tho? Also, you don't have any power over me so you can't tell me what to do. But if you do this to a kid without even an explanation then you are abusing them. You are making them fear you, they will not value any time spent with you because you are creating an abusive relationship. This will only make them more rebellious and hope to not see you ever.
@@mochi8632, is not child abuse. House rule and the same thing goes for adults.🤷🏼♂️ If you find that you have issues with my house rules then don't visit. Simple. If I take it from you I will toss it out on the grass the first time. Next time it hits the walkway.
I once dated a girl who was always on Instagram. It wasn't this bad but she was literally always scrolling thru Instagram. I had to explain to her that it's rude to be on her phone when we're eating together or when I'm trying to have a conversation with her but she still didn't get it. Unfortunately that wasn't nearly the worst of her problems but now I know that being on social media all the time is a red flag
I was at my in-laws for Thanksgiving and my Sister-in-Law would not let anyone eat until she got THE perfect picture of the dinner table all set up. Kids are screaming, everyone is hangry, and she is just snapping away... it was pure chaos. She ruined Thanksgiving dinner... But her post made it seem like everything was wonderful and peaceful. Completely disconnected from reality...
Sad this is common everywhere. I was at this tourist spot few days ago and it was a beautiful sun View that day and people are busy taking selfies and i was enjoying the view laughing at them in my mind.
Can you really blame her for making memories but yeah it's affecting others, I usually take pictures or videos but I don't really post them Just keeping them in the hard drive who knows if you get old at some point and see the nostalgia
@@jhonvvick1289 But almost everybody does. I'm just saying, we can't argue with the fact that a lot of people knows social media and uses it a lot, but for the wrong purpose, which is one of the problematic things nowadays.
TH-cam isnt social media, it's a sheep in wolf's clothing, it's a predator ready to pounce, it's a lowlife thief that steals your sanity, grammer, and intelligence away from you..... *And I'm one of the people addicted to it.*
Instagram started to teach me to be envious.. I come from a very humble family where am taught to appreciate every little thing that comes my way.. Social media made feel the exact opposite. Deleting my social media accounts has been the most wonderful thing I have ever done! My life is less stressful!!
@Stephanie Maria lol. Praise and honor received for an achievement. You deserve that! 3 years free from social media ain't a joke at all. Once again, kudos to you!🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
My ex recently dumped me, I understand I messed up by being insecure but GOSH DANG boy even two weeks after she dumped me she posted herself out with new people and she seems so “happy.” I have personally been staying silent on my socials becsuse I feel no need to fake anything, but she is posting waaaay to much with people she literally just met; they seem so happy and it honestly hurts me, because it made me believe I was just replaceable. This video has certainly helped me come back to reality.
She's faking it. It would be different if she rewired and actually spoke to those people again, made friends, or posted something new. And in moderation. I too don't feel that urge anymore. Locked myself from facebook around September end, and it only did good.
@@archanakumaridasgupta5536 she may not be faking it. If she dumped him there’s the possibility she was eager to be single and is happy now. If he was The Who dumped her and now she’s doing the most with her posts then it would be likely she’s faking. It’s true that most things on social media is exaggerated, some things are outright fake, but every on social media is not fake. I think some people like to believe so as a cope mechanism.
I stopped posting on Instagram before I saw this video, I felt like people don't like your pictures because they really do like them but because they want you to hit the like button when they post a picture. They see your picture hate, judge and criticize you then they hit the like button. It's so misleading and fake.
I deactivated my instagram and my facebook a week ago, you realize how addicted you were to these social networks when you don't use them and you feel abstinence, like a drug.
Me too! I'm one month off of instagram and I couldn't believe the amount of times I automatically unlocked my phone and went searching for the app icon that first week...
Well, you didn't completely quit social media since you're obviously using TH-cam currently. I strongly believe what you meant to indicate is that you now currently use the internet much more sagaciously wasting less precious time such as receiving an autodidactic education.
People: why don’t you post anything? Are you a real person? Me: I live my offline life. I’ve got no time to write, shoot and edit posts 😂 My SMM manager: you 🤬 Me: sorry 🤷🏻♀️ I’m not going to lie about myself, “two posts a year” is me, could hire a copywriter, but it would be a lie.
Today is my birthday. I don't post photos on any social network this is my life a starting point that's a big message for me and thank you very much. Enjoy yourself not showing other’s people.
So true. I know some people can function fine with social media but I am definitely not one of those people. I tried so hard to stop comparing myself to others and seeking validation in likes/comments/messages/retweets/etc. but I'd fail every time. Life without social media is pretty isolating and you quickly realize who your real friends are and who you want to always stay in touch with.
For the last girl, with the boyfriend? I feel like social media posts like that are a huge reason why people are surprised when they break up; from the outside it all seems perfect :(
Yes I was that girl.. looks so good but in reality just fights.. and ppl on u like why did u break up with so and so.. you guys were so cute together ?!?!?
I'm a french teenager, and we studied this video in english class. The name of the lesson was ''performing in social networks'' . We spoke about it and I think it's a very good thing to have this prevention level at school. :)
People on social media feel the need to post every aspect of their lives. Instead of enjoying the moment they would rather take a picture of it and show everyone else that they're 'enjoying' it. I was once like this
Norin Begum tbh the only social media i “post” on is snapchat and i only send pictures like black background with the hour or sometimes some text lol. i don’t like posting my life on social media, and the only reason i do it on snapchat is because of the snapstreaks i started long ago
I'm on social media but I barely use it to post pics, i use it for communication, like i found the instagrams of people I knew a long time ago and I'd lost their phone number
I Go to Lot of Partys bc my Boyfriend is a DJ and Most of the time i enjoy the time with the other people on the parties or Dancing Don't Using my Phone but i Take Like 3-5 Pictures and Vids.I Like to Share my memories but i just want to feel it too,Like tf Being always on the Phone when other Friends are around you? how unrespectful
I'm on the edge of quitting social media. The fakeness we portray and see from others on daily basis is driving us crazy. I do even catch myself doing it occasionally I'm not sure if it's really a gap within us that we're trying to fill or in my case it was kinda a rivarly type of thing.
I think because social media is like something we own. Like our personal space. Like there are no rules but our own. We can control it on the way we want it. When we want and where we want it. Anything that we cannot achieve instantly or express from a normal non social media relationship/life, we can put or say in social media. Social media is instant gratification that it can be addicting. And while being addicted, what's true and what is make believe can be mixed. That's when we can go to extremes bcos it's is gratifying. I want to explain my opinion more but i just have little hard time elaborating it. I dont use my FB anymore. Twitter is useless to me. I visit my instagram once in a while. You Tube is what i enjoy. Hehe..
you should definitely do it if you just want to live your life. i left all social medias because everyone only cares about what others think and its so depressing.
I'm favoured, $60k every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless Jason graystone fx
Trading without professional guide... 🤣 I laugh you, because you will remain where you are or even make huge losses that will stop you from trading, this has been one of the biggest problem to new traders.
I deleted my facebook account around three years ago. I NEVER want to go back to social media. My husband and I are actually talking about unplugging from mainstream tech and switching to flip phones for awhile to see the impact it can have on our mental health and culture in our home. I pray we succeed in that decision. 💛
the 2 worst people i met in my travels were 2 Europeans with no FB accounts. Even the coolest people have an account. They just never used it though. They dont post anything... but they on bday, you can at least get a greeting. So FB is not so bad. Just dont add friends and family.
I hope you never read this because you're too busy living your life instead of wasting it watching other people. I think I might just give it up too. ❤
they see others' photos (which are fake) but they're convinced that other people are having better lives than them (since everyone in their pics are perceived as perfect and nothing else) so they decide to do the same to make themselves feel better... it's sad how none of their posts are genuine
Yeah, that’s the reason why I no longer using social media, and I’m so happy with that, my mental health have been improved a lot and I literally have more extra time doing what I always want, I hope that the these words are helping you guys, who are struggling and felling bad of yourself. ❤❤❤ thanks for reading
social media ---> egocentricity and narcissism ---> misery People are NOT socializing in social media, they are literally competing AGAINST each other and constantly seeking more and more attention from others. We are not supposed to compete against each other, but to help and give love to each other. If you really want to find your self-respect and your happiness, start spreading sincere kindness and love to this world every single day. "Strong people don't put others down.They lift them up".
Talk about a depressing reality, Who remembers chilling with a group of friends who weren’t looking at their phone screen every 3 mins? (Sigh) 2007 Good ol days

@@lazzy5173 exactly, read mans comment again and draw the comparison, the friends making fun of you are rich in monopoly money but meaningless in the rest of the world
@thx473 whilst I get the point you're trying to make, I unfortunately don't think using the word 'connections' will make any difference or make people become 'aware'. Facebook already uses the term 'friends', and we all know how most people don't even speak to the 'friends' that are connected to their account. For this reason, I think the word 'followers' captures the reality of what people are doing, when they connect to a person's social media account, quite accurately.
They said taking picture is to keep the memories, but that's not the case for today's world, it's more like bragging about your boring daily life that you created to make it look "fun", "happy", "luxurious", "my life is perfect", while it actually just for attention and gaining more likes, get a life and stop thinking what other people thinks about you
I didnt even notice I was living like this until I deleted my account for a week. 🙈 Resisting the urge to make things look insta-worthy from now on and focusing on actual life. Love it!!!
Definitely. And since it’s now monetized, you’re paid to show the best or be quirky or create a brand, an image. Can’t imagine growing up as a teen now where what’s real? The norm is false representation. Shopping at a store but don’t mind the content creator recording his current episode to millions and I’ll be an extra in the background cause I went out of my house. lol Nah, it’s worse.
Sumukh I agree. But I had a Twitter for 2 months b/c my friends finally talked me into making one and I didn’t really like it. It was just a lot of apathetic posts that people would never say in real life. What really surprised me were that most retweeted/favorited tweets were made from people that were pretty “anti-social” or lacked social skills in real life
I do not like twitter - it's hard to find communication there...btw no one from people i know have twitter. Maybe 2 or 1 so I don't know whom to subscribe and whom to read and whom to talk or with whom to share my thoughts
Been two years I quit social media. I don't know how better it made my life but I can definitely say that it saved me from a lot.of anxiety, panic, garbage and waste of time.
The moment I deleted my FB and Insta, it took me 2 years to get a better hold of myself. I gave more attention to my studies, stopped comparing myself to others both mentally and physically, gave up trying to be a good friend all the freaking time and not to take my family’s words to heart. All these factors used to make me feel envious of others but now I only do activities that makes me happy such as reading a nice book or drawing and feeling contented with my body and mind the way it is cause no one can be perfect. Now I feel no panic attacks, anxieties and self loathing.
Heard this somewhere, "Out of 24 hours, people hardly get 24 minutes of true happiness. During this time, the person clicks 24 pictures. Finally, he shares one single best picture magnified with filters, which ruins the mental well-being of next 24 people."
It's actually really sad...Thankfully I gave up my instagram account a couple of years ago and never looked back. Life has been so much more enjoyable!
Fernanda I still have my instagram account,but I don't spend too much time on it.The real struggle is when all your friends are screen addicted and they can't stay five minutes without thei r mobiles!And whatever they do they must post it,that's so hateful
Brett910 SAME! Like okay, sometimes there’s a social media break, I’m guilty of sometimes being on social media but I don’t stay on too long. In real life, I see people socializing, but I don’t go out much, and I’m always paying attention to my company instead of the people around me.
I deleted my Instagram and refused to make a Snapchat account. I just can't stand how people are faking their lives and proving that they are always "busy". I just can't stand people who are unfollowing people who they used to follow just to show popularity. I just can't stand how the number of likes define a person of who she/he is. Because if people are truly happy and busy in life, they wouldn't have time to prove to others that they're happy. Personally, when I started limiting my use of social media, I have learned to live in the real world. I have learned to cherish my true friends. I have learned to make genuine memories not to brag to others, but to treasure for myself.
What people fail to understand is being a slave to social media. Get out of the house and enjoy life. The more likes you get the more addicted you'll to false recognition. The only person who needs to understand your worth is YOU.
abrajunejo The irony is that I know my daughter "likes" the posts of people she feels sorry for - so the amount of likes definitely does NOT reflect on how popular you ....it is false recognition.
abrarjunejo I need help. My sister is supposed to be studying because she going to university, and all her focus is on is social media. Also putting makeup up, checking out her stories on ig/Snapchat and it's annoying! She is never gonna go to university and I keep telling her too, she never listens.
We've come into an age where social acceptance and validation is a much needed feeling to fill the gap of neglected parts of ourselves that weren't fulfilled. Instead of recognizing it and fixing it for ourselves, we put tape on it instead because it's too much work. We push others to help us boost our sense of self confidence and constantly put on an air of positivity hoping it will solve eveything like magic. These things have always been here and the only difference between then and now is how social media has just made the flaws within ourselves that much more apparent and obvious. Social media isn't to blame. The blame has always been onto ourselves. Social media is only a tool and not the cause. We are the cause and we should stop having others do our work for us by trying to fix our problems. Fix your own problems and you'll be glad you did. I promise! 😊
Bangel911 Your comment is the reason why my English teacher so proud of me for using this comment for english speech.Thx m8 :D .I was going to credit you but I forgot sorry :/
Absolutely agree with you! I hope one day in social media there will be a trend for truth and sincerity and people will understand that they don't have any imperfections, we will stop belittling ourselves.
"Social media is where you try to impress or please people who don't even give a f*** about you in real life, while ignoring the ones who actually are"
Same here! The only thing I use is TH-cam and my podcast! I got rid of my Facebook and Instagram almost two years ago and I love not letting the world see my private life! It’s no one else’s business and I don’t feel the need to get attention like that.. I think it’s people that are extremely insecure and need attention . It’s sad and pathetic and makes me cringe seeing stuff like this- nothing real or genuine .. just all fake to try and get attention and likes etc..
@@susannanunez1448 my (now husband) and I used to have Facebook and it was a problem before bc random girls would try messaging him and commenting on his posts inappropriately so it did cause lots of fights and problems .. but later on we eventually decided to get rid of all social media so neither of us has to worry! I feel like a lot of men and women like it so they can cheat or get attention from others so it’s not good for relationships if your spouse is good looking and likes attention lol
I have always felt so backdated, too ordinary since I started my insta account. People are having such colorful, happy,life. And there I am sitting in my room with books, study and absolutely nothing. I really tried to be like them, like trying reels, make-up and all. But that's not me, and i can't pretend anything. So i just deactivated all my social media account. You know what? I'm genuinely happy and satisfied with no showing off. I'm living my life instead of making fake things.
Honestly. If it makes u feel any better. I do this too. Sure, i go on youtube. But as a senior in high school, I feel like all i do is study, do i feel lonely and depressed kinda. But, at least i am not the only one who does this in my school and many of the most intelligent people i know, RARELY use social media.
I am happy that i didn't use anykind of social media except youtube and messaging apps . If people really do these things it feels like like they are living in delusion .
What annoys me the most is when I see couples or friends at a restaurant on their phones and not talking to eachother! It just drives me mad! Or worst, I was at a MacDonald's recently where they had put iPads for kids to play whilst eating!! Just TALK!!!
Ilona Winn , yes it annoys me also!!! Couple went out with each other but are busy with their phones!! Another thing is clicking photos after photos of the food and uploading!!! It's like I'm eating the food only to show off!! *So irritating these things are!!* 😥😥😥
I deleted my facebook and instagram account as soon as I finished university (almost 2 years ago). I don’t regret it at all. I was always telling my friends that people only post only the best of their lives, and often it's not even real. That could make an average person think "Why is everyone life so much more interesting and better, and how is everyone way happier than me?" But that's a trap, because we are sad and unsocial generation. Also, start tracking your time on phone and "social" apps. You'll be suprised how much time you waste.
Few months ago my friend was suffering from mild depression..he shared his problems with me..I just asked him to quit social media for 1 month..n feel if there is any improvement...guys u won't believe..he has improved so much..
Hmm... we sort of forget what's the point why we use social media in the first place. It's used to spread happiness and show sincere with others and not competing each other. Comparing is kind of the norm in social media quite often now :(
@@jainil7244 bro? we're not being "cry babies", we have valid complaints about the situation that all of us were born in. and?? there's literally a pandemic going on?? we're not supposed to be going outside to hang out??
That was so dramatic and time consuming. The older I get (I'm 24) , I became less focused--wayyy less focused on using my phone, taking pictures & I actually enjoy the moment. Talking with friends, communication face to face. We need to bring back those old days
I still take lots of pictures, but that's because I have a really bad memory and want to be able to remember important moments in my life. If I don't capture it somehow I will inevitably forget. HOWEVER I don't let the picture taking overshadow the event. I take one or two pictures, maybe a video of what's going on then put my phone away. The photo/video just serves as a memory trigger. I also don't have social media so I'm not posting any of this, I just keep them in cloud storage and send them to others if they want then. It's like keeping a digital scrapbook!
So true. Misled all the time and comparing ourselves to falsehoods and pretences. Pitifully striving for “likes” from insignificant people who don’t even matter. The people who really matter are the ones we interact with face to face, not losers who are addicted to social media.
It’s proven that social media increases depression and loneliness. Just live your life and stop worrying about others to compare yourself, you will never be happy this way.

@@Jerard715 REMOVE YOU FROM MEDIA. WE BELIEVE IN YOU
My husband and I went out for breakfast and we noticed that everyone around us were on their phones. Father with his young son, mom & dad and teen son, young couple with their toddler who was on a tablet. I felt so sad for the kids. What a perfect opportunity for families to talk and connect. We didn't give our son a cell phone until he entered high school. We don't allow phones at meal times or when we're out at restaurants. It's just gotten so out of hand. It's no longer for convenience, it's an obsession, an addiction.
How did you get your son to not be bitter about not giving him cell phones until high school and all the rules? If i ever have a kid I want to do the same thing, but Ive seen my relatives' kids be unbelievable spiteful against their parents because of this.
Not letting your kid use the phone at the table is an error. You don't need to put rules, you need to make him appreciate the time spent connecting.
I never had any rules about phones, and still every time I sit at the table with my family or friends I am the only one wanting to talk face to face, socialice and stop using the phones.
What you are doing to your son is useless.
@@mochi8632, THAT is your problem. "Never had rules." When dinner is served in my house cellphones are not allowed at the table. Do so and YOU and your PHONE may be going out the door. You will get only one warning.
@@donotneed2250 Why tho? Also, you don't have any power over me so you can't tell me what to do.
But if you do this to a kid without even an explanation then you are abusing them. You are making them fear you, they will not value any time spent with you because you are creating an abusive relationship.
This will only make them more rebellious and hope to not see you ever.
@@mochi8632, is not child abuse. House rule and the same thing goes for adults.🤷🏼♂️ If you find that you have issues with my house rules then don't visit. Simple. If I take it from you I will toss it out on the grass the first time. Next time it hits the walkway.

All I use is TH-cam, same for me.
I once dated a girl who was always on Instagram. It wasn't this bad but she was literally always scrolling thru Instagram. I had to explain to her that it's rude to be on her phone when we're eating together or when I'm trying to have a conversation with her but she still didn't get it. Unfortunately that wasn't nearly the worst of her problems but now I know that being on social media all the time is a red flag
lol
I was at my in-laws for Thanksgiving and my Sister-in-Law would not let anyone eat until she got THE perfect picture of the dinner table all set up. Kids are screaming, everyone is hangry, and she is just snapping away... it was pure chaos. She ruined Thanksgiving dinner... But her post made it seem like everything was wonderful and peaceful. Completely disconnected from reality...
Sad this is common everywhere. I was at this tourist spot few days ago and it was a beautiful sun View that day and people are busy taking selfies and i was enjoying the view laughing at them in my mind.
Wow… I totally know what you mean. That’s why I decided not to force pictures on Christmas. Just spend time with family cooking and bring together
This is exactly what happens when I and my friends hang out

Can you really blame her for making memories but yeah it's affecting others, I usually take pictures or videos but I don't really post them
Just keeping them in the hard drive who knows if you get old at some point and see the nostalgia

My ex recently dumped me, I understand I messed up by being insecure but GOSH DANG boy even two weeks after she dumped me she posted herself out with new people and she seems so “happy.” I have personally been staying silent on my socials becsuse I feel no need to fake anything, but she is posting waaaay to much with people she literally just met; they seem so happy and it honestly hurts me, because it made me believe I was just replaceable. This video has certainly helped me come back to reality.
She's faking it. It would be different if she rewired and actually spoke to those people again, made friends, or posted something new. And in moderation. I too don't feel that urge anymore. Locked myself from facebook around September end, and it only did good.

It’s true that most things on social media is exaggerated, some things are outright fake, but every on social media is not fake. I think some people like to believe so as a cope mechanism.
I stopped posting on Instagram before I saw this video, I felt like people don't like your pictures because they really do like them but because they want you to hit the like button when they post a picture. They see your picture hate, judge and criticize you then they hit the like button. It's so misleading and fake.

So true. I know some people can function fine with social media but I am definitely not one of those people. I tried so hard to stop comparing myself to others and seeking validation in likes/comments/messages/retweets/etc. but I'd fail every time. Life without social media is pretty isolating and you quickly realize who your real friends are and who you want to always stay in touch with.
For the last girl, with the boyfriend? I feel like social media posts like that are a huge reason why people are surprised when they break up; from the outside it all seems perfect :(
true you really don't know what goes behind the scenes
Yes I was that girl.. looks so good but in reality just fights.. and ppl on u like why did u break up with so and so.. you guys were so cute together ?!?!?
Yes it is. Because our lives are so filtered from the truth
Because no one’s life is that interesting. Filters and background work great too.
I feel sad for people who need cconstant validation and recognition
I know it's sad , lack of self love.
Dont feel so sad for them, they sometimes hurt people if they don't get enough attention
U do realize youtube is also Social media do u.

People on social media feel the need to post every aspect of their lives. Instead of enjoying the moment they would rather take a picture of it and show everyone else that they're 'enjoying' it. I was once like this

tbh the only social media i “post” on is snapchat and i only send pictures like black background with the hour or sometimes some text lol. i don’t like posting my life on social media, and the only reason i do it on snapchat is because of the snapstreaks i started long ago
Me 2. Finally I found the right way, N I deleted Ig

I'm on the edge of quitting social media. The fakeness we portray and see from others on daily basis is driving us crazy. I do even catch myself doing it occasionally I'm not sure if it's really a gap within us that we're trying to fill or in my case it was kinda a rivarly type of thing.
I think because social media is like something we own. Like our personal space. Like there are no rules but our own. We can control it on the way we want it. When we want and where we want it. Anything that we cannot achieve instantly or express from a normal non social media relationship/life, we can put or say in social media. Social media is instant gratification that it can be addicting. And while being addicted, what's true and what is make believe can be mixed. That's when we can go to extremes bcos it's is gratifying. I want to explain my opinion more but i just have little hard time elaborating it. I dont use my FB anymore. Twitter is useless to me. I visit my instagram once in a while. You Tube is what i enjoy. Hehe..
Quit it best thing i ever did!
I have never entered, I only use WhatsApp and Messenger just to chat with my friends.

Here are some ways social media can improve-

2) Relabel "Followers" To "Connections"
thats kinda cool
that means no fun for many companies 😐
@@alisa7012they need to create an own space
@thx473 whilst I get the point you're trying to make, I unfortunately don't think using the word 'connections' will make any difference or make people become 'aware'. Facebook already uses the term 'friends', and we all know how most people don't even speak to the 'friends' that are connected to their account. For this reason, I think the word 'followers' captures the reality of what people are doing, when they connect to a person's social media account, quite accurately.
This is wise
They said taking picture is to keep the memories, but that's not the case for today's world, it's more like bragging about your boring daily life that you created to make it look "fun", "happy", "luxurious", "my life is perfect", while it actually just for attention and gaining more likes, get a life and stop thinking what other people thinks about you

I just can't stand people who are unfollowing people who they used to follow just to show popularity. I just can't stand how the number of likes define a person of who she/he is. Because if people are truly happy and busy in life, they wouldn't have time to prove to others that they're happy. Personally, when I started limiting my use of social media, I have learned to live in the real world. I have learned to cherish my true friends. I have learned to make genuine memories not to brag to others, but to treasure for myself.
A failure is not a loss. It's a gain.
I totally agree with you 👍
A failure is not a loss. It's a gain. Bro it's not that serious.... all I do on snapchat is post pictures of my rabbit.....
thank you....make genuine memories not fake ones to show people how much fun you are having which ain't the case
Yeahh I agree
A failure is not a loss. It's a gain. very well said! this is so true
Cyberbullying is a very serious problem that affects many people, especially young people using social networks.
What people fail to understand is being a slave to social media. Get out of the house and enjoy life. The more likes you get the more addicted you'll to false recognition. The only person who needs to understand your worth is YOU.
abrarjunejo yup
Many of them are out of the house when they use social media, lol
abrajunejo The irony is that I know my daughter "likes" the posts of people she feels sorry for - so the amount of likes definitely does NOT reflect on how popular you ....it is false recognition.
abrarjunejo amen
abrarjunejo I need help. My sister is supposed to be studying because she going to university, and all her focus is on is social media. Also putting makeup up, checking out her stories on ig/Snapchat and it's annoying! She is never gonna go to university and I keep telling her too, she never listens.
We've come into an age where social acceptance and validation is a much needed feeling to fill the gap of neglected parts of ourselves that weren't fulfilled.
Instead of recognizing it and fixing it for ourselves, we put tape on it instead because it's too much work. We push others to help us boost our sense of self confidence and constantly put on an air of positivity hoping it will solve eveything like magic.
These things have always been here and the only difference between then and now is how social media has just made the flaws within ourselves that much more apparent and obvious.
Social media isn't to blame. The blame has always been onto ourselves. Social media is only a tool and not the cause. We are the cause and we should stop having others do our work for us by trying to fix our problems. Fix your own problems and you'll be glad you did. I promise! 😊
Bangel911 truth
Bangel911 How does your comment not have 10000 likes
Probably because it's the truth that nobody is ready to face

Bangel911 Your comment is the reason why my English teacher so proud of me for using this comment for english speech.Thx m8 :D .I was going to credit you but I forgot sorry :/
It's so sad!! Honestly, the lies that are believed in social media really has an impact on everyone's self esteem.
That's just attention seeking people in general
Some of us use social media for memes
@@veiserexab1428 yeah ok lol
Absolutely agree with you!
I hope one day in social media there will be a trend for truth and sincerity and people will understand that they don't have any imperfections, we will stop belittling ourselves.
Indeed
Yup
"Social media is where you try to impress or please people who don't even give a f*** about you in real life, while ignoring the ones who actually are"
nothing about social media is social.
MrProphetius should be called internet media
No Instagram no Facebook no snap . No social media just cooking on TH-cam for fun 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😂😂😂😂💐💐💐
Me too✌️
TH-cam is were it's at🤙💗
Same here! The only thing I use is TH-cam and my podcast! I got rid of my Facebook and Instagram almost two years ago and I love not letting the world see my private life! It’s no one else’s business and I don’t feel the need to get attention like that.. I think it’s people that are extremely insecure and need attention . It’s sad and pathetic and makes me cringe seeing stuff like this- nothing real or genuine .. just all fake to try and get attention and likes etc..
Here's a loaded question...does anyone have a SO that participates in Social media...Heavly?...Does it cause problems for you?
@@susannanunez1448 my (now husband) and I used to have Facebook and it was a problem before bc random girls would try messaging him and commenting on his posts inappropriately so it did cause lots of fights and problems .. but later on we eventually decided to get rid of all social media so neither of us has to worry! I feel like a lot of men and women like it so they can cheat or get attention from others so it’s not good for relationships if your spouse is good looking and likes attention lol
I have always felt so backdated, too ordinary since I started my insta account. People are having such colorful, happy,life. And there I am sitting in my room with books, study and absolutely nothing. I really tried to be like them, like trying reels, make-up and all. But that's not me, and i can't pretend anything. So i just deactivated all my social media account. You know what? I'm genuinely happy and satisfied with no showing off. I'm living my life instead of making fake things.
Love this!! I feel the same
"I am not like other girls"
That's basically your comment.
❤️❤️
Honestly. If it makes u feel any better. I do this too. Sure, i go on youtube. But as a senior in high school, I feel like all i do is study, do i feel lonely and depressed kinda. But, at least i am not the only one who does this in my school and many of the most intelligent people i know, RARELY use social media.
@@mochi8632 no. 🙂
I am happy that i didn't use anykind of social media except youtube and messaging apps .
If people really do these things it feels like like they are living in delusion .
What annoys me the most is when I see couples or friends at a restaurant on their phones and not talking to eachother! It just drives me mad! Or worst, I was at a MacDonald's recently where they had put iPads for kids to play whilst eating!! Just TALK!!!
Ilona Winn ohmygod true 😭💔
They probably are talking, the internet is one of the best methods of communication invented.
agreee
Ilona Winn , yes it annoys me also!!! Couple went out with each other but are busy with their phones!! Another thing is clicking photos after photos of the food and uploading!!! It's like I'm eating the food only to show off!! *So irritating these things are!!* 😥😥😥
I hate thar Ipads so much... Kids this days... but its not their fault
*“Comparison is the thief of joy”*

It's like my mom once told me, "Don't allow this mean world to take your smile away."
If that's true anything can be a thief of joy- overthinking, guilt
deleting insta was one of the best decisions i’ve ever made! i highly recommend
Alli Kay wanna hang out?
You did great
Good job. I gave it another shot but my friends/people I know still posting the dumbest stories... I don't really care if you're drinking a coffee.
Sameeee
I did the same thing. And now i am proud of this decision. It relieved me of so many (read that all) stresses.
I deleted my facebook and instagram account as soon as I finished university (almost 2 years ago). I don’t regret it at all. I was always telling my friends that people only post only the best of their lives, and often it's not even real. That could make an average person think "Why is everyone life so much more interesting and better, and how is everyone way happier than me?" But that's a trap, because we are sad and unsocial generation. Also, start tracking your time on phone and "social" apps. You'll be suprised how much time you waste.
Few months ago my friend was suffering from mild depression..he shared his problems with me..I just asked him to quit social media for 1 month..n feel if there is any improvement...guys u won't believe..he has improved so much..
+Is it reality???😎🙊👍👍
Yea you're right I don't believe you
I always re-watch this video to remind myself social media is fake.
Me too
Me too
Same!!
Me too
Hmm... we sort of forget what's the point why we use social media in the first place. It's used to spread happiness and show sincere with others and not competing each other. Comparing is kind of the norm in social media quite often now :(
I feel sorry for teens today. Everything’s about image.
Teens ? Not only teens
well duh image gets you laid
Not everyone is like that
@@jainil7244 bro? we're not being "cry babies", we have valid complaints about the situation that all of us were born in. and?? there's literally a pandemic going on?? we're not supposed to be going outside to hang out??
@@cheerioooo7865 and Online classes also hits hard for social teens😂
I feel so good watching this, it really shows us the "Behind the Scenes" of social media posts.
Kudos to the creators for this wonderful creation.
Most people i've met that are like this have been the most miserable in real life.
Fass47 I couldn't be like that it's so fake reason I left Facebook
Omg so true! I couldn't do this either.
Ryan x same

That was so dramatic and time consuming. The older I get (I'm 24) , I became less focused--wayyy less focused on using my phone, taking pictures & I actually enjoy the moment. Talking with friends, communication face to face. We need to bring back those old days
Me too.. now I'm rarely take photos when hanging out with friends.. Unlike younger days when I posted photos every day
Seeing as you're still so young and think this way already, I would say we (the world) have a lot of hope.
GIRL YES!!
I still take lots of pictures, but that's because I have a really bad memory and want to be able to remember important moments in my life. If I don't capture it somehow I will inevitably forget. HOWEVER I don't let the picture taking overshadow the event. I take one or two pictures, maybe a video of what's going on then put my phone away. The photo/video just serves as a memory trigger.
I also don't have social media so I'm not posting any of this, I just keep them in cloud storage and send them to others if they want then. It's like keeping a digital scrapbook!
people go on their phones with their friends? this is why y’all don’t have close friends TALK and people somehow wanna stick to you
So true. Misled all the time and comparing ourselves to falsehoods and pretences. Pitifully striving for “likes” from insignificant people who don’t even matter. The people who really matter are the ones we interact with face to face, not losers who are addicted to social media.
