Yes! This is so good! I deleted my instagram and Facebook this year. I've been six moths without it and I am so excited to be more present in life. I quit alcohol, instagram, Facebook and I am moving into my van this year to travel and work in film and TV.
I’ve been seeing a lot of the younger generation speaking on deleting their social media. But to hear from millennial women like me, it comforts me to know I’m not by myself in deleting social media. It’s just to much negativity, violence, and disconnection on their now. Some Ppl don’t even know how to have a face to face conversation now a days because their constantly on their phones, not in the moment.
This made me emotional hearing another introverted person like me. I can spend so much time alone or at home and be in HEAVEN. I have so many activities I do like play piano, draw, gaming, redecorating, reading, etc. There is never a boring moment when I'm in my own space! And recently with social media, I've felt SO pressured to have an exciting life and blend in with other people. Going out, taking photos, etc to keep up with the masses.. all because being boring and enjoying time at home is unacceptable. I had a guy poke fun at me for enjoying time at home and I never really lived that down. I felt like a loser. This really inspired me to stay true to myself. Thanks so much for this
I'm also an introvert & a designer, deleting Instagram & Facebook was good for me! I feel content & not overstimulated. It's not good for me to know what my friends/families are doing in their daily lives. It robbed my alone time.
The worst thing about social media I think is the constant comparison you make, even unconsciously, between your life and other's people life and this can really lead to depression, anxiety, low self esteem and so on. So yes I completely agree when you say how it's important to make a good use of these platforms and sometimes we should really take a break from them. ❤
Great to see video like these that addresses what is becoming a pandemic in this generation...Young people spend a lot of time on social media. They're also more susceptible to peer pressure, low self-esteem and mental ill-health. A number of studies have found associations between increased social media use and depression, anxiety, sleep problems, eating concerns, and suicide risk to name a few. Thank you
Great video! I'm thinking of quitting FB for the whole month of March. It's taken a toll on my mental health...feeling like everyone had all the good stuff that I wish I had. And also it's grown old having to see practically nothing but political posts, gossip, and dumb memes.
I’m really inspired looking forward to deleting my social media aswell,I’m also an introvert,I don’t like being around a lot of crowds.Thank you for your video😊
I just use Facebook to reconnect with old friends and remember birthdays and use Linkedin for work purposes only A lot of people now use social media to promote their business so I guess it could be a blessing and a curse You looking amazing as always x

Thanks for sharing - I'm glad it helped. There is so much beauty in being who you are - it is what makes us different and special.
I can totally relate to this as an introvert myself. Thank you so much for this video and thank you for your comment @Rayne.
Thank you for your comment

You are very eloquent, I could listen to you all day.

Great point on alone time, glad it's working well for you.

Mental health is very important - if you believe taking a break would help, go for it!
