    whenever i’m on social media i feel like i’m drowning and as a sensitive person i take in emotions of others and sometimes compare myself to others life, it’s really unhealthy but being of social media is a whole other life compared to having it. I feel more free when i deleted instagram and tiktok, i have MORE time and finding other hobbies helped me develop new skills and plus going to youtube for lifestyle changes/improvements is much more efficient🥹 Gen z needs to realise how damaging social media is fr…

    I deleted TikTok and the next step is to delete Instagram. I wish my friends would do the same. I hope we all get rid of these toxic stuff soon.

    I deleted social media in the middle of 2021 and it was absolutely the best decision of my life, I'm now more patient, my brain no longer full of silly trends and able to focus on my studies.

    Hello Jessica, you make very compelling points throughout this video. I feel the same way, which is why I have deleted all social media except for TH-cam, which I make an effort to use in a productive way. I believe it will be for the best! Best regards 😊

    I deleted all social media except TikTok. IMO its very liberating and I feel like I'm not searching for other's validation anymore.

    My name is Jessica too! 😁 I don't have a TikTok or IG account since I never understood the meaning of them. I deleted my FB account because I became bored of all the posts of everyone's wonderful events, gossip, and political rants. It's been a little over a year now and I don't regret it.

    I quit FB one evening after I wasted an hour and a half going through posts and realizing that I didn't even enjoy it. I spend that time practicing music now, and I would never go back. 4 years now.

    I decided to quit all of my social media except for TH-cam and I found myself feeling much more happier than before and also picking healthy habits! I mainly use TH-cam for videos about self improvement & such and less for entertainment. also quitting it made me miss certain people more which lead to excitement when I see them after a long time and we have a lot more topics to talk about to catch up with each other :D
    Great video btw🙏

    tiktok & twitter is the worse social media apps. i deleted ALL social media but instagram and i guess youtube it that counts. it’s easier to just private your instagram and only follow people who inspire you.

    • @Jgracelees
      @Jgracelees  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! This is a really good way to do it. For me I get trapped by the reels but if you’re able to not become consumed by that then well done and keep at it!

      True, that's what I Wanna do with my Instagram since it has replaced photo albums. I'd still love to save my pictures somewhere. I'm just gonna post, mute the comments and forget about the post.

      I understand, it can certainly be difficult. If you’re finding it too hard without any social media at all you could always try the partial use of social media.

    the irony of the countless videos telling you not to watch content and create your own content instead is astounding. no clue what that actually implies

    • @Jgracelees
      @Jgracelees  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi! Personally I believe that as a society transfixed on digital content we become obsessed with consuming and consuming mindlessly rather than seeing what we can add to the world with our own ideas and creations. When we learn to create rather than to overly consume we add value to others and ourselves.

      @@businesswalks8301 Not really, you can use such things as TH-cam productively without going down a rabbit hole. One way is to not be signed in on the app so that you don’t get personalised recommendations meaning that you can search for whatever and leave it at that without falling down the rabbit hole :)

      No! TH-cam is very different to forms of social media such as Instagram. I don’t view TH-cam as being anything near Instagram. It can be used as a tool for education and many other things🤍

      most agree and recognize that youtube is in a different arena and style of information dispersal than like-dopamine-based common social media like IG/FB/tiktok. you can't be naive to the difference.
