The biggest problem with social media, in my view, is the comparing of yourself to the personas that people put out for the world to see on their feeds. These are personas that most often have no basis in reality, which is why seeing them constantly and comparing ourselves to them could be a dangerous/detrimental thing.
I deleted my social media’s because I realized I was wasting my life scrolling through other people’s life’s, now I read, meditate, pray, walk, journal, finding new hobbies and it’s so uplifting. I’m doing a 6 week break but after I get back to it I’m setting time limits on each app
SMH I did exactly what you did. I made promises to myself that I was going to set limits and got back to the endless scrolling and mindlessness of social media. Just delete it. Don’t go back to it.
Social media is not the problem u are the problem.u as a human have the power to control everything, u have the power to adjust yourself to God,u have d power to limit yourself from certain things sweetheart just that we"OVER DO EVERYTHING "remember dis saying" there's time for everything" and stop blaming social media ok
You know social media is a problem when you plan what type of pictures your gonna take and outfits your gonna wear, Not for yourself, but for your insta page 😕
@@user-ux3vw6mb4k girl ain’t nothing to be ashamed of ! It’s something that we can’t control because it’s now social media works It becomes addicting but girl we can take action. But there’s nothing to be ashamed about

@@Antanaxis There really is no "right side" of social media. It's all vanity and vexation of spirit. Even the "right side" is a waste of time and a dopamine rush that feeds the addictive mind.
these days are over there is more harm done then good and its true in the beginning it was good to connect familys but look at it now.....no never visit just ignore
I swear to god Saeed Mobayd's channel had 100k and he deleted it and made a new one just for spiritual content. Look up his video 'I deleted my fitness channel'
I deleted all my social media last weekend, Ive realized that I have so much time, I used to complain about school and that I don’t have time to do things, but the same day I deleted social media I was outside cycling 2 hours and explored music and listened to 3 albums which I loved.
@MxHunter that's awesome. It just goes to show how much time social media consumes us. If it doesn't serve you well, I think you've made the right decision, especially as you're building up your hobbies and talking to your family more 😊
I've never understood why people feel the need to show off their lives to other people that they don't really care about. I don't think anyone really gives a shit about a person's picture as much as that person. Plus, when you go to somewhere, it should be uncomfortable to feel that need to take a photo, adjusting perfect lighting, filters and stuff. Watching other people's lifes is a pathetic way of spending time. A person who has a respect for himself/herself wouldn't feel the need to use it. Life is better when you try to spend it by developing yourself both physically and mentally. The feeling of permanent hapiness occures when you take control of your life and start to run to a purpose.
i knew this girl that went to my school, she didn’t have any social media or anything like that. people bullied her for that and i felt bad for her. little did they know she’s so much happier enjoying and living in the moment while everyone else is trapped in social media. i think imma follow her footsteps because it’s about time for a change.
Well good for her social media have made me feel like shit especially Instagram this influencers living lavish life make you feel little I don't know why she was bullied
Getting rid of Social Media is the best thing ever! Some things you will notice: 1) You realize you do not have as many friends as you may think. This is good, you wasted time with "fake" friends on a social platform. 2) You have more time to find a hobby 3) You will be more happy 4) You will not have drama, most drama starts on social media. 5) You will not need to put on an image for "likes" 6) You will find your real self 7) You will make more money, and not need to showboat 8) You will live a lowkey lifestyle 9) You will not fit in, its overrated anyway 10) You will be a better parent, husband/wife, bf/gf, son/daughter , etc. 11) If you are in school, your grades will improve 12) You will have more time to get in shape/workout. No pressure of the fake shit you can focus on YOU Overall thats just some positive things I HAVE noticed. Social Media is the devil, its fake, its depressing. I realized I talked , liked, interacted with people who were just "cyber" friends, waste of time, if you have lets say 1k friends , once you delete it I bet you will maybe talk to 20-50 if that after you delete it. Delete it and you will live life! No need to impress others, live for you and your close ones
Social Media is SO toxic and Time consuming, Use it to your advantage and take regular breaks from it cuz it really does mess with your thoughts and if you find yourself scrolling and refreshing pages just to see content, just turn of the phone cuz it's just pointless😂
not totally true. I have social media to share what I write and compose in piano. Artists have the need of sharing their creations. I don´t care about the money.
I deleted all of my social media because I don’t like people, alot of shit happened to me. I just gotten tired of everybody else’s shit when I was trying to be sweet as an angel
I’ve been off social media for nearly two months now. For the first time in over a decade I am so satisfied with the way that I look. I feel so comfortable and secure about my body. I have been yo-yo dieting/exercising on and off for YEARS now. Never satisfied with my body, even though I actually have a pretty nice body. Men always found my body more attractive than I did. I could not see what they saw, and hated my body…. Until now. And I’ve all of a sudden have the flattest stomach and smallest waste I’ve ever been able to achieve while still keeping my curves, and I’m not even TRYING! I may never return to social media again.
Back when I was addicted Social media started giving me a dark energy and made me very lazy and made it hard for me to keep my semen retition once I deleted it Life has changed and my confident has went up and my grind has been unstoppable and I wasted so many time of my life instead I could be making my life better instead of comparing myself to others
deleting my social media apps is like breathing air for the first time. It's actually refreshing because you really see the things that matters and you get to improve yourself without the pressure of conformity
@@user-nv3sh5jh3p social media made women become more narcissistic. They have such overinflated egos from men constantly commenting on their pictures or messaging them telling them they are beautiful and constantly complimenting them, giving them constant validation. Women have an insatiable appetite for attention and validation from men and social media makes them think they are celebrities having their followers constantly praising their existence. Because of this women have crazy expectations of what they want in men that it's impossible to live up to their standards.
@@user-nv3sh5jh3p not as much as women but yeah. They have more access to seeing pictures of attractive women on Instagram or tiktok and gives them the same addiction as p**n does imo.
I just deleted all of my social media. Feels weird but I want to better myself. I’m sick of the cycle I put myself in feeling miserable everyday. I’m done and I want to move forward.
I'm 38 but Facebook took off when I was 21 back in '04. That's when everybody started going on there at least at colleges. I refused to join the trend back then because I knew of all of the evils it was going to bring. People thought I was crazy back then and throughout my 20's for not having Facebook. As I entered my 30's those same people who said I was crazy then said they wished they had gone my route because they can't get off of it and are miserable. Not having it didn't make life less fun but it made it more enjoyable and easier to live. I'm glad nobody but my close friends knew about my relationships and break ups. I knew girls would get angry at me when they couldn't trash me online after a break up simply because I didn't have a Facebook account or any other social media. I'm also glad nobody but a few close friends knew about my on struggles and highs. I just feel as humans we are not suppose to share every important detail of our lives with everybody. Being on social media is like being a celebrity with all your privacy being gone but without the benefits of being a celebrity.
Same here it would have been so much more real and authentic. Got rid of social media 1-2 years ago for that very reason. To live real life not some virtual life.
@@OrganizationXIII Well then that's on them 🤷🏽♀️ not my problem. I know I can't change their mind. I've already left and I been doing so much better. I know social media will never go away, but like I said, it's up to those people to leave. They can decide to stay or leave.
@@nicatina I’ve left social media as well and I only use TH-cam as of now. If I decide to become a content creator than I will obviously start using social media again .
The Young People deleting anti-social time-wasting social media are the hope for the future. I hope the best for all of you. Life is very short and every moment is precious. Free your minds.
sounds weird BUT when I deleted all my social media my head became FRESH and mind is CLEAR. literally must have if you’re about to delete social media.
I notice that the times in my life when I was actually happy and more productive was when social media was deleted. Social media, esp TikTok, has caused me so much anxiety and stress and depression. It sucks bc it is sometimes a source of inspiration for me and it does make me feel less lonely, but truthfully I nothing real or lasting ever comes from it.
I deleted all of them in summer 2021. Im never going back, I love my life without social media. I love that I dont see what everyone is doing and posting. Im also an artist and i quit drawing for some times because I compared my art to others. I also had a relationship and most beautiful part of it was ruined from social media. After quitting them everyone with tiktok or insta songs near me annoyed me so much , theyr so irritating man. I dont want to be in a bunch of untalented people making fame from dancing and trolling around, or a bunch of people hating each other in real life and liking each others posts in social media , just trying to impress each other. I found myself again. I reccomand this to everyone
I agree with you 100% in every aspect and relate with you. About comparing and also about a relationship being ruined due to social media. Not only that but it’s so true people are soooooo fake they will like and follow people on social media that they don’t even like in real life and that’s so crazy to me lol. I use to have these friends that didn’t like certain girls but yet would follow them on social media just to keep up with them and they were envoys of these girls because they were pretty and seen them as a threat that’s so weird to me.
@@ccyoutube8793 Me too, didnt see the point when I compaired my art to others art and didnt find it worth doing. Im no longer on sosial media and started drawing again.
Same here I deleted social media over a year ago I want to say maybe two years ago at this point and my life has been so much better. So much more in touch with reality and drama free.
My biggest issue with social media is that it distances you from real people in the real world. I noticed that when I deleted social media, I just craved having conversations with anyone, even strangers. While I'm on social media... I just feel unmotivated to talk/be social in real life.
Yes exactly!!! You get all your validation from social media so it's like what's the point of interacting with real people in real life? I got rid of social media 1-2 years ago for the same reason!!! And I noticed the same thing as you my friend. Your social skills improve in real life AND you start noticing more the people who are still addicted and lost in the social media paradigm! For example you see two people sitting next to each other in a downtown area and they're both glued to their devices. What kind of a world are we living in??? We should be interacting with each other in real life not using these phones as safety blankets!
TH-cam is like a true safe space for me. I know, I waste time here too but it's actually more productive to be here in TH-cam. Watching longer videos that explaining a certain topic is just better than a small tweet or tiktok or insta story. Also there is not so much negative energy here like in other platformes.
I deleted tik tok becouse it made my mind go crazy. I got all these spiritual videos on my for you page that made me question my reality. Im a really spiritual person and I like these topics but the amount of videos I was expose to was making me sick mentally. I think tik tok so demanding. You forget time when you on there. I was spending 3 hours in a row and didn’t notice it. And the sad part is that so many young kids use this app.
I totally relate. I’m religious actually but all the content both religious and spiritual was just too much for me to handle. Plus is was horrible to watch everyone argue other different ideologies.
I’ve yet to tap into tik tok and at this point I don’t think I ever will. The only reason I even rejoined social media to begin with was to keep in touch with people I don’t see on an everyday basis. There’s a lot of people who I don’t see anymore because I went to school with them or that there old coworkers that I no longer work with that i either want to keep in touch with or reconnect with. Tik tok isn’t even interacting with one another. It’s nothing more than just a bunch of random videos. And since so many young kids use it only explains why depression among young people is becoming a major issue. If people are gonna live in their own little world they will become lonely and isolated. I’m sure back when we were on a full non essential shutdown didn’t help either.
TikTok's algorithm is so dangerous and addictive that's why it's literally called "TikTok." They designed it purposely like that so you're hooked, you don't know what's the next thing you're gonna swipe up and see, but all social media feeds are designed like a slot machine (refreshing for example). It's sad that the kids are so addicted because they see it as fun but what it does to the brain long term is bad
In such a happy person now I read books I'm on a routine Focusing on my passion I always notice what happening in my world, my surrounding without social media I'm jealous of what people living their life I need to take care of my mental health I think Social Media is like MY-LIFE-IS-COOL-THAN-YOURS
I've decided too take a year off social media idc if the females I used to simp over are with someone or if my friends don't text me that just means they were temporary I have to grind to better
I deleted my twitter and Instagram last November 2020 and no one even noticed. Life lesson: nobody really care about you on social media as you think everybody is at the capacity you think they will go through for you. They have their own life which their prolly thinking 24/7. So if you think someone will miss you when you deleted all your accounts, chances are they're not & stop wt this FOMO mindset, you're missing out the real life honey.
I think society Will be divided soon with People who use social media and People who don’t . It feels like a new trend starting with more and more People finding their way back to focus on more important stuff. Getting more grounded with life itself.
I disabled my instagram for four months. Didn’t really think about it or have the urge to go back on there until I wanted to post a photo of myself. But during that time I felt so free and in touch with reality. Now that Ive reactivated my account Im literally irritated by it.
"We wish that social media was a place where everyone could connect and bring about positivity amoungst each other. However that is just not the case. Where there is light there is darkness so if you're on social media, chose the light side" Stay Hard Stay Healthy
I was in Bangkok for 10 day. On the 2nd day I lost my phone in the back of a tuk tuk. I didn’t get a phone until I came back to the usa. It was the best two weeks of my life.
Went through a breakup last August and deleted all my social medias right after the breakup. I was able to graduate my last semester of college, get my own place, and improved my gym lifestyle! in a matter of 5 months. Please get off social media!
Social media or social misery? Here’s my breakdown: Pros: New connections Promotion of work Staying in touch Expressing one’s self Cons: Time wasted Information overload Unwanted desires Sadness FOMO Jealousy Expectations Not Met Depression Seems like the cons outweigh the pros IMO
Instagram is life-threatening, having to compare yourself to other humans with a higher perspective of followers. You want to be like them and it just kills motivation, I honestly had a different mindset when I’d step on that app. Then I realize again no being on this earth is better than the other, also numbers do not matter if you’re too focused on that you’d lower self-esteem.
Social media is like drugs in the sense that it’s addictive and makes you do stuff that you would never do in real life, i actually got into a fight with a Brazilian insta model in Portuguese in the comment section, I didn’t even know this girl and I don’t even speak Portuguese, it brings out the worst in us DELETE IT
I completely left for 6 months + and when you try to go back it feels like you’re outside looking in. It seems so fake, the people look different and i just feel out of place I can’t wait to make my video about this ‼️
Bro you’re right you make no memories on social media it just waste your time and never let’s you see the real world and make memories with your friends and family.thx for this ima delete social media and focus on school and other productive things that will better my life
On tiktok, I gained so many insecurities, so many new aesthetics and judgement. Everyone acts the same, and it’s traveling throughout apps. I deleted tiktok.
exactly EVERYONE acts the same..texts the same..the same cringy ass poses. honestly sometimes i just power my phone off & put it under my mattress. strange world we live in.
I deleted twitter, instagram and snapchat 2 years ago and I feel so relieved to not rely on them for anything anymore. I only have Facebook to look at memes, but even then I've stopped myself from going on it for a couple months. TH-cam and Netflix has been the only source of entertainment for me lately and Im genuinely feeling more happier and relieved to not see updates on people's lives and friends who arent really my friends.
im 18 now and have never felt the need to ever create any socials for myself, when ppl ask me for my socials, and i tell them i dont have them, they get rlly surprised. fr whenever im out with friends 99% of the times there on their phones, like for one second look tf up at the world.. its destroying gen z icl but love the video icl feels nice when i can relate with someone. Thank uu
When you wake up the following day after making the decision to quit social media, you come to the realisation that you've been spending every morning of your life mindlessly scrolling on social media apps as soon as you wake up.
I 1000% agree ! I’ve only had social media deleted for over a month now and my mental health has never been this great. I just graduated from highschool and I like you said have big dreams for myself. I decided to take the initiative and delete all socials and 100% commit to whatever I wanted to accomplish. When I tell you I literally had a shift in my mindset and became more productive. I told myself if this is what you want to do then I’m going all in. Its weird because when I had social media I thought I had “friends” but in reality they were just distractions. I haven’t spoke to any of those “friends” since. Which says a lot. I love the state that I’m in now and I will continue to work towards my dream.
I've deleted Facebook and instagram back in 2017 and I deleted twitter at the start of 2021 after realising it was time-consuming and counter productive because it was addictive and not to mention it was depressing on how I allow myself to be compared with other people lives and felt I was missing out when in reality they could be cherry picking the good bits of their lives while leaving out the bad.
I just got home from an awesome week in south Florida with some friends. I checked my Instagram after and my first thought was “damn, I never do anything fun.” LIKE I FORGOT I WAS JUST ON A VACATION. Social media is dangerous.
People are actually getting bored of it that's why mark Zuckerberg is creating a new Facebook so people will stay. Lol. Fvcking loser and greedy. He wants all the money in the world, he doesn't care about this generation..
I really love it how people are now deleting social media and appreciating the world around them. I wish I could've done the same when I was 13. I'm 19 now, learning more about the world around me and I'm so much happier without it. If I wanted to keep taking pictures, I'll do it on my phone, use Polaroid, Instax, and Fuji cameras instead. I want pictures that I can actually keep forever and look at it.
@@metalrockstarizer89 I agree with you. TH-cam is the only app I could tolerate so far. Not a lot of toxic people and drama here, only if they choose to be or not.
holy shitttt “the fear of missing out” is something ive been struggling with in terms of social media and that’s exactly why i haven’t deleted anything But this video has answered that question for me
“If it’s free, you are the product”. Can’t remember where I heard this but it stuck with me. Deleted all socials March 2020 and never locked back. I want to be able to chose for myself what I want to feed my mind just like I chose what I feed my body.
@@MrNiel-ne9xf It really isn’t like social media though. It’s much easier to remain anonymous and you aren’t forced certain content on your feed. It’s also less toxic, and subscribing to people is completely different to following them. Everyone that subscribed to me on TH-cam will never see this comment I’m typing out right now, unlike Twitter for example where people who follow me can see everything I tweet or like. I’ve been using TH-cam forever and only have been using social media regularly for a year and TH-cam is so much better. Also, a few more things I want to mention. TH-cam doesn’t censor you as much as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok do. It has gotten a lot worse in recent years, but it is still better than those other apps. Plus, you are less susceptible to falling into group think and people hounding you because of an unpopular opinion you have.
Deleting social media was honestly one of the best decisions I could make. I used to waste so much time looking at snapchat stories and looking at instagram thirst traps but deleting those among with Facebook has given me a peace of mind.
I took a two week break from social media and that was probably the best thing I have ever did in my life. I was no longer depressed, I got more stuff done in my free time(writing songs) and I've been a lot more happier. And in all honesty, I didn't miss out on anything and I was a lot more happier
"If you're not making memories, you're wasting time." Damn, this hit hard. Thank you for your incredibly packaged wise words. I would like to edit to: if you're not making memories OR money, you're wasting time .. because money can buy time
That is true and I saw this one thing where this one rapper asked this questions, "Would rather have 2 million followers or 2 million Dollars?" and the amount of people who said followers, I automatically lost respect for them lol. I was like "man give me that 2 mill, I don't care about them 2 mill followers" cause I'm not tryna be famous

As for the other commenter, I'm pretty sure they were making an inappropriate joke, it's all good on your end if you didn't understand it.
last year I decided to cut back heavily on social media and stop posting on some sites all together, and since then I’ve felt more “fresh” in the head. I was able to develop a new hobby with plants and read more books. I’ve also been able to do lots of self reflection, which I honestly don’t think i would’ve been able to do if I was still active on social media.
I've tried to delete all my social media several times, and failed all those times. After seeing this video I realize how much I need to focus on my own life like he said. I'm going on a camping trip with my cousin tomorrow for a couple of days and think this will be a great time to 100% commit to staying off social media.
Im deleting one social media app every year and I realized i been wasting my time on all these toxic apps.Its hard at first but when you delete them you’ll get used to it and realize that you never needed them
I decided recently to delete Facebook and Tik Tok because so much of my time was wasted on them. I was a teen in the late 90's and I'm so happy i didn't grow up with social media. I feel like it's killed my brain cells over the years. My plan is to stay away from them and become a productive human being again. Maybe I'll finally pick up the guitar I bought over a year ago.

I’m a senior in high school and I got my first phone in 7th grade my parents make me keep my phone upstairs in the kitchen at night so I can’t have when I go to bed...I’m now a senior in high school I’m an adult! But they still make me put my phone upstairs every night when I was younger I HATED that they did that! But now I’m so happy they make me up my phone upstairs because it makes me less anxious
I don't have social media either but .. when a guy asks for your instagram and you tell them you don't have one.. they immediately think your weird or a fake or something.. needless to say though I love not having social media, I just wish people could really see why some people choose not to have any socials .
people don’t care that much about it. if you just say it was a decision you made because you wanted to start actually living life rather than wasting my time on social media, i’m sure people would understand
TH-cam has become as trash as Instagram and Facebook. It literally throws random unrelated videos at you and spams you with crap you've already watched. TH-cam used to be fun and enjoyable with REAL content and now it's just trash. There's literally nothing to watch anymore and I need to think of good content to find now.
@@rakawajdi8920 Nah It depends how you use youtube... Only a videos that makes sense and YT is a social media platform but I learned a lot with it unlike any other apps.
This is a great video , Social Media has really taken hold of this generation and stopped them from achieving their own ambitions just because their looking for validation from others.
It’s been 3 months now since I deleted all my apps. I’ve been more spiritual since then. I don’t even feel like checking any of em apps anymore. It’s a permanent detox and I’m glad, it’s definitely a positive feeling, trust me. I’ve learned to value my time, myself, more importantly, I learnt what is important and what isn’t. It’s a detox from negative thoughts too
I tried this for a good month and a half, and I assure you Jordan isn’t wrong. You aren’t missing out on anything and you do start to see your life changing for the better. Worried about your followers? The real friends will text you, and even if they can’t find your number they will ask around and will get your number. Don’t waste time on all those followers you might not even see in person one day. Stay the course!
I’m currently 14 and I just deleted my social media accounts permanently off my phone AGAIN I plan on not going back on social media! My mother was totally right about how social media affects an individual badly I currently took a break from the media until I went back and couldn’t take a break anymore Social media is affecting my mental health Your saying straight fact . I believe social media is a toxic , and dangerous app. I hope one day all social media apps can get deleted for ever. And even though I am 14 and just went into high-school ik it will be hard firing in when everyone has social media and etc . But idc anymore !
"Social media can be your greatest resource, but it can also be your greatest distraction" well said this is what people need to hear 🙏🏾 my last video I made was on this topic. Everyone should take a break from time to time to focus on theirselves and you will see a difference. Start putting your time and energy into things that will help you not hurt you
@@vfauni5764 Thats true bro that would be the best thing to do for yourself. If you arent making any money or educating yourself there is no reason to be on there. But a lot of people dont have that self discipline yet so you have to start somewhere. It can be hard to quit social media like that cold turkey when your so accustomed to consuming it unconsciously everyday for years and years
The biggest problem with social media, in my view, is the comparing of yourself to the personas that people put out for the world to see on their feeds. These are personas that most often have no basis in reality, which is why seeing them constantly and comparing ourselves to them could be a dangerous/detrimental thing.
Factssss
YES
It’s how political social media is now, with all of the horrific stances and doctrines it has now
I believe the harvesting/selling of user data and data breaches are equally and/or more concerning (especially with Facebook, Instagram & WhatsApp!)
No one is comparing themselves to you

Plus I hate seeing tragic stuff abt people dying or getting harmed by police 🤦🏾♀️

social really does make people toxic, it makes people do things online that they'd NEVER do in real life

I deleted all my social media last weekend, Ive realized that I have so much time, I used to complain about school and that I don’t have time to do things, but the same day I deleted social media I was outside cycling 2 hours and explored music and listened to 3 albums which I loved.
And I’ve spent more time with my family these past 4 days than what I would’ve spent in 1-2 weeks
dang bro thats a vibe
@@amorgod7776 I definitely recommend it
2020 has put me in dark place, I’m just trying to heal
@MxHunter that's awesome. It just goes to show how much time social media consumes us.
If it doesn't serve you well, I think you've made the right decision, especially as you're building up your hobbies and talking to your family more 😊
I've never understood why people feel the need to show off their lives to other people that they don't really care about. I don't think anyone really gives a shit about a person's picture as much as that person. Plus, when you go to somewhere, it should be uncomfortable to feel that need to take a photo, adjusting perfect lighting, filters and stuff. Watching other people's lifes is a pathetic way of spending time. A person who has a respect for himself/herself wouldn't feel the need to use it. Life is better when you try to spend it by developing yourself both physically and mentally. The feeling of permanent hapiness occures when you take control of your life and start to run to a purpose.
i agree bro
I definitely agree!!
Agreed
well said

I deleted social media because I have to focus on school and get my grads straight.
Same haha
i knew this girl that went to my school, she didn’t have any social media or anything like that. people bullied her for that and i felt bad for her. little did they know she’s so much happier enjoying and living in the moment while everyone else is trapped in social media. i think imma follow her footsteps because it’s about time for a change.
Well good for her social media have made me feel like shit especially Instagram this influencers living lavish life make you feel little I don't know why she was bullied
what would they say to her ??
Getting rid of Social Media is the best thing ever! Some things you will notice:
1) You realize you do not have as many friends as you may think. This is good, you wasted time with "fake" friends on a social platform.
2) You have more time to find a hobby
3) You will be more happy
4) You will not have drama, most drama starts on social media.
5) You will not need to put on an image for "likes"
6) You will find your real self
7) You will make more money, and not need to showboat
8) You will live a lowkey lifestyle
9) You will not fit in, its overrated anyway
10) You will be a better parent, husband/wife, bf/gf, son/daughter , etc.
11) If you are in school, your grades will improve
12) You will have more time to get in shape/workout. No pressure of the fake shit you can focus on YOU
Overall thats just some positive things I HAVE noticed. Social Media is the devil, its fake, its depressing. I realized I talked , liked, interacted with people who were just "cyber" friends, waste of time, if you have lets say 1k friends , once you delete it I bet you will maybe talk to 20-50 if that after you delete it.
Delete it and you will live life! No need to impress others, live for you and your close ones
I deleted social media like a year ago. Felt much better instantly. I don’t understand why people are so attached
Social Media is SO toxic and Time consuming, Use it to your advantage and take regular breaks from it cuz it really does mess with your thoughts and if you find yourself scrolling and refreshing pages just to see content, just turn of the phone cuz it's just pointless😂
once you refresh the page, its time to get off your phone 💀
If you aint making no money from any social media there’s no point having it.
Tru
not totally true. I have social media to share what I write and compose in piano. Artists have the need of sharing their creations. I don´t care about the money.
I deleted all of my social media because I don’t like people, alot of shit happened to me. I just gotten tired of everybody else’s shit when I was trying to be sweet as an angel
💯💯💯💯 same
that's exactly how i feel
sameeeeeee im done with people
I’ve been off social media for nearly two months now. For the first time in over a decade I am so satisfied with the way that I look. I feel so comfortable and secure about my body. I have been yo-yo dieting/exercising on and off for YEARS now. Never satisfied with my body, even though I actually have a pretty nice body. Men always found my body more attractive than I did. I could not see what they saw, and hated my body…. Until now. And I’ve all of a sudden have the flattest stomach and smallest waste I’ve ever been able to achieve while still keeping my curves, and I’m not even TRYING! I may never return to social media again.

amen👏🏾👏🏾✨
Back when I was addicted Social media started giving me a dark energy and made me very lazy and made it hard for me to keep my semen retition once I deleted it Life has changed and my confident has went up and my grind has been unstoppable and I wasted so many time of my life instead I could be making my life better instead of comparing myself to others
Yet you’re on TH-cam

Social media has ruined modern age dating
@@user-nv3sh5jh3p social media made women become more narcissistic. They have such overinflated egos from men constantly commenting on their pictures or messaging them telling them they are beautiful and constantly complimenting them, giving them constant validation. Women have an insatiable appetite for attention and validation from men and social media makes them think they are celebrities having their followers constantly praising their existence. Because of this women have crazy expectations of what they want in men that it's impossible to live up to their standards.
@@user-nv3sh5jh3p not as much as women but yeah. They have more access to seeing pictures of attractive women on Instagram or tiktok and gives them the same addiction as p**n does imo.
I just deleted all of my social media. Feels weird but I want to better myself. I’m sick of the cycle I put myself in feeling miserable everyday. I’m done and I want to move forward.
Out of interest how is it going hitting the 2 week mark??
I wish I could have experienced my teens years and 20s in a time period where social media didn't exist.
Me too because that was the best time period honestly
I'm 38 but Facebook took off when I was 21 back in '04. That's when everybody started going on there at least at colleges. I refused to join the trend back then because I knew of all of the evils it was going to bring. People thought I was crazy back then and throughout my 20's for not having Facebook. As I entered my 30's those same people who said I was crazy then said they wished they had gone my route because they can't get off of it and are miserable.
Not having it didn't make life less fun but it made it more enjoyable and easier to live. I'm glad nobody but my close friends knew about my relationships and break ups. I knew girls would get angry at me when they couldn't trash me online after a break up simply because I didn't have a Facebook account or any other social media. I'm also glad nobody but a few close friends knew about my on struggles and highs. I just feel as humans we are not suppose to share every important detail of our lives with everybody. Being on social media is like being a celebrity with all your privacy being gone but without the benefits of being a celebrity.
Same here it would have been so much more real and authentic. Got rid of social media 1-2 years ago for that very reason. To live real life not some virtual life.
Honestly, if social media isn't going to end anytime soon, then it's up to us people to leave social media. Delete or deactivate your accounts.
You know that won’t happen

@@OrganizationXIII Well then that's on them 🤷🏽♀️ not my problem. I know I can't change their mind. I've already left and I been doing so much better. I know social media will never go away, but like I said, it's up to those people to leave. They can decide to stay or leave.
@@nicatina I’ve left social media as well and I only use TH-cam as of now. If I decide to become a content creator than I will obviously start using social media again .

step 2: enjoy a good life
True😁
3. Goes back to watching youtube videos all day
and that’s what i did, i don’t miss it at all! twitter is a very toxic app.
Broe I felt you when you said quitting social media made you stop inheriting other people's thoughts and start creating your own thoughts 🙆🏽♂️🙆🏽♂️
I notice that the times in my life when I was actually happy and more productive was when social media was deleted. Social media, esp TikTok, has caused me so much anxiety and stress and depression. It sucks bc it is sometimes a source of inspiration for me and it does make me feel less lonely, but truthfully I nothing real or lasting ever comes from it.
I deleted all of them in summer 2021. Im never going back, I love my life without social media. I love that I dont see what everyone is doing and posting. Im also an artist and i quit drawing for some times because I compared my art to others. I also had a relationship and most beautiful part of it was ruined from social media. After quitting them everyone with tiktok or insta songs near me annoyed me so much , theyr so irritating man. I dont want to be in a bunch of untalented people making fame from dancing and trolling around, or a bunch of people hating each other in real life and liking each others posts in social media , just trying to impress each other. I found myself again. I reccomand this to everyone
I agree with you 100% in every aspect and relate with you. About comparing and also about a relationship being ruined due to social media. Not only that but it’s so true people are soooooo fake they will like and follow people on social media that they don’t even like in real life and that’s so crazy to me lol. I use to have these friends that didn’t like certain girls but yet would follow them on social media just to keep up with them and they were envoys of these girls because they were pretty and seen them as a threat that’s so weird to me.
Here! Here! I haven't touched a paint brush cause of social media 😩
@@ccyoutube8793 Me too, didnt see the point when I compaired my art to others art and didnt find it worth doing. Im no longer on sosial media and started drawing again.
Same here I deleted social media over a year ago I want to say maybe two years ago at this point and my life has been so much better. So much more in touch with reality and drama free.
My biggest issue with social media is that it distances you from real people in the real world. I noticed that when I deleted social media, I just craved having conversations with anyone, even strangers. While I'm on social media... I just feel unmotivated to talk/be social in real life.
Yes exactly!!! You get all your validation from social media so it's like what's the point of interacting with real people in real life? I got rid of social media 1-2 years ago for the same reason!!! And I noticed the same thing as you my friend. Your social skills improve in real life AND you start noticing more the people who are still addicted and lost in the social media paradigm! For example you see two people sitting next to each other in a downtown area and they're both glued to their devices. What kind of a world are we living in??? We should be interacting with each other in real life not using these phones as safety blankets!
I wouldn’t delete my social media, but taking breaks and abandoning it for a while can be really good for my mental health.
Just delete them you'll feel better be really good for ur mental health
Same. You need social media for business nowadays (e.g. marketing, networking, etc.)
TH-cam is like a true safe space for me. I know, I waste time here too but it's actually more productive to be here in TH-cam. Watching longer videos that explaining a certain topic is just better than a small tweet or tiktok or insta story. Also there is not so much negative energy here like in other platformes.
I deleted tik tok becouse it made my mind go crazy. I got all these spiritual videos on my for you page that made me question my reality.
Im a really spiritual person and I like these topics but the amount of videos I was expose to was making me sick mentally.
I think tik tok so demanding. You forget time when you on there. I was spending 3 hours in a row and didn’t notice it.
And the sad part is that so many young kids use this app.
Yess it was so draining wasting my time on a app and comparing myself and just spending all my time on there
I totally relate. I’m religious actually but all the content both religious and spiritual was just too much for me to handle. Plus is was horrible to watch everyone argue other different ideologies.
yes exactly. there’s also so much negativity on that app
I’ve yet to tap into tik tok and at this point I don’t think I ever will. The only reason I even rejoined social media to begin with was to keep in touch with people I don’t see on an everyday basis. There’s a lot of people who I don’t see anymore because I went to school with them or that there old coworkers that I no longer work with that i either want to keep in touch with or reconnect with. Tik tok isn’t even interacting with one another. It’s nothing more than just a bunch of random videos. And since so many young kids use it only explains why depression among young people is becoming a major issue. If people are gonna live in their own little world they will become lonely and isolated. I’m sure back when we were on a full non essential shutdown didn’t help either.
TikTok's algorithm is so dangerous and addictive that's why it's literally called "TikTok." They designed it purposely like that so you're hooked, you don't know what's the next thing you're gonna swipe up and see, but all social media feeds are designed like a slot machine (refreshing for example). It's sad that the kids are so addicted because they see it as fun but what it does to the brain long term is bad
When you said that "You're only missing out on other people's lives" I felt that bro. True shit..
In such a happy person now
I read books
I'm on a routine
Focusing on my passion
I always notice what happening in my world, my surrounding without social media
I'm jealous of what people living their life
I need to take care of my mental health
I think Social Media is like MY-LIFE-IS-COOL-THAN-YOURS
I want to delete social media very soon. I don't care about missing out or comparing myself to other people.
Do it!
Please do it
fax and it distracts u a lot from doin other things
Do it once you break the addiction you will realize how stupid it is.
I've decided too take a year off social media idc if the females I used to simp over are with someone or if my friends don't text me that just means they were temporary I have to grind to better
I deleted my twitter and Instagram last November 2020 and no one even noticed.
Life lesson: nobody really care about you on social media as you think everybody is at the capacity you think they will go through for you. They have their own life which their prolly thinking 24/7. So if you think someone will miss you when you deleted all your accounts, chances are they're not & stop wt this FOMO mindset, you're missing out the real life honey.
I think society Will be divided soon with People who use social media and People who don’t . It feels like a new trend starting with more and more People finding their way back to focus on more important stuff. Getting more grounded with life itself.
back to the good old days where people had less mental issues. There's definitely going to be a divide though.
i agree. I always questioned If instagram/snapchat was to be removed forever, would this be the end of social media?
I disabled my instagram for four months. Didn’t really think about it or have the urge to go back on there until I wanted to post a photo of myself. But during that time I felt so free and in touch with reality. Now that Ive reactivated my account Im literally irritated by it.
I deleted all my socials when I was 13 and man, I learned so much about myself! Im 18 now and only using social media to make money
"We wish that social media was a place where everyone could connect and bring about positivity amoungst each other. However that is just not the case. Where there is light there is darkness so if you're on social media, chose the light side"

This is facts.
I was in Bangkok for 10 day. On the 2nd day I lost my phone in the back of a tuk tuk. I didn’t get a phone until I came back to the usa. It was the best two weeks of my life.
Went through a breakup last August and deleted all my social medias right after the breakup. I was able to graduate my last semester of college, get my own place, and improved my gym lifestyle! in a matter of 5 months. Please get off social media!
Same I deleted it mainly cause of going through the pain of a breakup plus my mental health is extremely bad
Social media or social misery? Here’s my breakdown:
Pros:
New connections
Promotion of work
Staying in touch
Expressing one’s self
Cons:
Time wasted
Information overload
Unwanted desires
Sadness
FOMO
Jealousy
Expectations Not Met
Depression
Seems like the cons outweigh the pros IMO
Instagram is life-threatening, having to compare yourself to other humans with a higher perspective of followers. You want
to be like them and it just kills motivation, I honestly had a different mindset when I’d step on that app. Then I realize again no being on this earth is better than the other, also numbers do not matter if you’re too focused on that you’d lower self-esteem.
Social media is like drugs in the sense that it’s addictive and makes you do stuff that you would never do in real life, i actually got into a fight with a Brazilian insta model in Portuguese in the comment section, I didn’t even know this girl and I don’t even speak Portuguese, it brings out the worst in us DELETE IT
😂
I completely left for 6 months + and when you try to go back it feels like you’re outside looking in. It seems so fake, the people look different and i just feel out of place I can’t wait to make my video about this ‼️
So true. I never went back. Deleted it all 1-2 years ago and never want to go back. It's such a trap and a big waste of time!
I’m 43 and when I was 20 we didn’t have our own computer, the cable didn’t exist, phone weren’t taking pics, life was chill.
Bro you’re right you make no memories on social media it just waste your time and never let’s you see the real world and make memories with your friends and family.thx for this ima delete social media and focus on school and other productive things that will better my life
yes u got this
“Produce more than you consume” 👏🏼
Yes deleting Instagram was the best thing ever, I may do it again
hopefully not, that means you'll have to make another account to delete it again
Good job you have proven yourself strong
On tiktok, I gained so many insecurities, so many new aesthetics and judgement. Everyone acts the same, and it’s traveling throughout apps. I deleted tiktok.
I feel the EXACT same way. Deleted it today
This is so true . I’m going to get rid of it too …
exactly EVERYONE acts the same..texts the same..the same cringy ass poses. honestly sometimes i just power my phone off & put it under my mattress. strange world we live in.

@@Alan18012 it is it’s been a week since I deleted it and I feel happier
social media used to be fun, now it's just a marketplace
@Judas Priest It used to be fun. Boomers, ads, and the horrible new layout have ruined facebook.
I deleted twitter, instagram and snapchat 2 years ago and I feel so relieved to not rely on them for anything anymore. I only have Facebook to look at memes, but even then I've stopped myself from going on it for a couple months. TH-cam and Netflix has been the only source of entertainment for me lately and Im genuinely feeling more happier and relieved to not see updates on people's lives and friends who arent really my friends.
Agree 💯
Same here 💯
I’m gonna slowly detach💞
social media takes away the realism of this world
im 18 now and have never felt the need to ever create any socials for myself, when ppl ask me for my socials, and i tell them i dont have them, they get rlly surprised. fr whenever im out with friends 99% of the times there on their phones, like for one second look tf up at the world.. its destroying gen z icl but love the video icl feels nice when i can relate with someone.

When you wake up the following day after making the decision to quit social media, you come to the realisation that you've been spending every morning of your life mindlessly scrolling on social media apps as soon as you wake up.
i’m gonna delete all my social media for a year . starting tomorrow i’ll make an update in a year and tell y’all if it changed me at all
Have you started?
I 1000% agree ! I’ve only had social media deleted for over a month now and my mental health has never been this great. I just graduated from highschool and I like you said have big dreams for myself. I decided to take the initiative and delete all socials and 100% commit to whatever I wanted to accomplish. When I tell you I literally had a shift in my mindset and became more productive. I told myself if this is what you want to do then I’m going all in. Its weird because when I had social media I thought I had “friends” but in reality they were just distractions. I haven’t spoke to any of those “friends” since. Which says a lot. I love the state that I’m in now and I will continue to work towards my dream.
u got it 🖤.
@Miss Melanin oh no not completely I just deleted all the apps
I’m rooting for you
Good for you I hope at this point in time you are still without social media and focused on your dreams!
I've deleted Facebook and instagram back in 2017 and I deleted twitter at the start of 2021 after realising it was time-consuming and counter productive because it was addictive and not to mention it was depressing on how I allow myself to be compared with other people lives and felt I was missing out when in reality they could be cherry picking the good bits of their lives while leaving out the bad.
I just got home from an awesome week in south Florida with some friends. I checked my Instagram after and my first thought was “damn, I never do anything fun.” LIKE I FORGOT I WAS JUST ON A VACATION. Social media is dangerous.
can deleting social media be a trend, please?
Let’s make it a trend
I deleted mine a month ago. So far I'm not bringing my phone anywhere. I just feel alive outside.
It is already a trend!
it doesnt have to be a trend just do it
People are actually getting bored of it that's why mark Zuckerberg is creating a new Facebook so people will stay. Lol. Fvcking loser and greedy. He wants all the money in the world, he doesn't care about this generation..
I desire to quit social media and today is day 1! Your words are extremely encouraging. Thank you!
Stay strong!
I really love it how people are now deleting social media and appreciating the world around them. I wish I could've done the same when I was 13. I'm 19 now, learning more about the world around me and I'm so much happier without it. If I wanted to keep taking pictures, I'll do it on my phone, use Polaroid, Instax, and Fuji cameras instead. I want pictures that I can actually keep forever and look at it.
I only want TH-cam in this world. And it should be like this for decades if not MILLIONS of years from now. Except bring back the dislike button.
@@metalrockstarizer89 I agree with you. TH-cam is the only app I could tolerate so far. Not a lot of toxic people and drama here, only if they choose to be or not.
The only thing you going to miss in social media is the drama that does not need to be in your life
Depends on what you use them for.
holy shitttt “the fear of missing out” is something ive been struggling with in terms of social media

TH-cam is still social lmfao
@@MrNiel-ne9xf It really isn’t like social media though. It’s much easier to remain anonymous and you aren’t forced certain content on your feed. It’s also less toxic, and subscribing to people is completely different to following them. Everyone that subscribed to me on TH-cam will never see this comment I’m typing out right now, unlike Twitter for example where people who follow me can see everything I tweet or like. I’ve been using TH-cam forever and only have been using social media regularly for a year and TH-cam is so much better.
Also, a few more things I want to mention. TH-cam doesn’t censor you as much as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok do. It has gotten a lot worse in recent years, but it is still better than those other apps. Plus, you are less susceptible to falling into group think and people hounding you because of an unpopular opinion you have.

Deleting social media was honestly one of the best decisions I could make. I used to waste so much time looking at snapchat stories and looking at instagram thirst traps but deleting those among with Facebook has given me a peace of mind.
I took a two week break from social media and that was probably the best thing I have ever did in my life. I was no longer depressed, I got more stuff done in my free time(writing songs) and I've been a lot more happier. And in all honesty, I didn't miss out on anything and I was a lot more happier
My brain felt empty when he said remember 3 memories😭
"If you're not making memories, you're wasting time." Damn, this hit hard. Thank you for your incredibly packaged wise words. I would like to edit to: if you're not making memories OR money, you're wasting time .. because money can buy time
That is true and I saw this one thing where this one rapper asked this questions, "Would rather have 2 million followers or 2 million Dollars?" and the amount of people who said followers, I automatically lost respect for them lol. I was like "man give me that 2 mill, I don't care about them 2 mill followers" cause I'm not tryna be famous

I decided recently to delete Facebook and Tik Tok because so much of my time was wasted on them. I was a teen in the late 90's and I'm so happy i didn't grow up with social media. I feel like it's killed my brain cells over the years. My plan is to stay away from them and become a productive human being again. Maybe I'll finally pick up the guitar I bought over a year ago.
Hi God loves you Jesus died for you! For Everyone to have eternal life, please repent and turn to God! John 3:17 “For God so loved the world, he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.” Please REPENT and Turn to God!
I deleted social media this February. It's been incredible but I realised how much it was masking my loneliness. This video was so reassuring. Thank you so much Jordan ❤️ xoxo
I’m a senior in high school and I got my first phone in 7th grade my parents make me keep my phone upstairs in the kitchen at night so I can’t have when I go to bed...I’m now a senior in high school I’m an adult! But they still make me put my phone upstairs every night when I was younger I HATED that they did that! But now I’m so happy they make me up my phone upstairs because it makes me less anxious
I don't have social media either but .. when a guy asks for your instagram and you tell them you don't have one.. they immediately think your weird or a fake or something.. needless to say though I love not having social media, I just wish people could really see why some people choose not to have any socials .
U got social media?
@@bones997 lol you gotta be playing
@@lolabunny1157 nah
people don’t care that much about it. if you just say it was a decision you made because you wanted to start actually living life rather than wasting my time on social media, i’m sure people would understand
@@abby-hv6ll agreed . Just live your life
"Produce more than you consume" god damn this is so true!
TH-cam has become as trash as Instagram and Facebook. It literally throws random unrelated videos at you and spams you with crap you've already watched. TH-cam used to be fun and enjoyable with REAL content and now it's just trash. There's literally nothing to watch anymore and I need to think of good content to find now.
I created my own quote just to share: "Avoid distractions because it is destruction itself." -Zandra C.S
Then why are you strolling in TH-cam. You should avoid it...
I think you need to look the word hypocrisy first.
@@chuggynation8275 It is bad to share what I knoww ?? You must know self-control
@@rakawajdi8920 Nah It depends how you use youtube... Only a videos that makes sense and YT is a social media platform but I learned a lot with it unlike any other apps.
This is a great video , Social Media has really taken hold of this generation and stopped them from achieving their own ambitions just because their looking for validation from others.
It’s been 3 months now since I deleted all my apps. I’ve been more spiritual since then. I don’t even feel like checking any of em apps anymore. It’s a permanent detox and I’m glad, it’s definitely a positive feeling, trust me.
I’ve learned to value my time, myself, more importantly, I learnt what is important and what isn’t. It’s a detox from negative thoughts too
Thissssss!!!!!
Same!!!!
I tried this for a good month and a half, and I assure you Jordan isn’t wrong. You aren’t missing out on anything and you do start to see your life changing for the better. Worried about your followers? The real friends will text you, and even if they can’t find your number they will ask around and will get your number. Don’t waste time on all those followers you might not even see in person one day. Stay the course!
I’m currently 14 and I just deleted my social media accounts permanently off my phone AGAIN
I plan on not going back on social media!
My mother was totally right about how social media affects an individual badly
I currently took a break from the media until I went back and couldn’t take a break anymore
Social media is affecting my mental health
Your saying straight fact . I believe social media is a toxic , and dangerous app. I hope one day all social media apps can get deleted for ever.
And even though I am 14 and just went into high-school ik it will be hard firing in when everyone has social media and etc . But idc anymore !
"Social media can be your greatest resource, but it can also be your greatest distraction" well said this is what people need to hear 🙏🏾 my last video I made was on this topic. Everyone should take a break from time to time to focus on theirselves and you will see a difference. Start putting your time and energy into things that will help you not hurt you
not a break just never download it ever again 😂
@@vfauni5764 Thats true bro that would be the best thing to do for yourself. If you arent making any money or educating yourself there is no reason to be on there. But a lot of people dont have that self discipline yet so you have to start somewhere. It can be hard to quit social media like that cold turkey when your so accustomed to consuming it unconsciously everyday for years and years
@@treyalldayyy facts
BINGO!!!! TAKE BREAKS!!!!
@@vfauni5764 A BREAK
