- Hi everybodyodyody🕺
Today’s video is a little different from what I usually post, but I recently got off of social media (instagram) and I wanted to share how it’s going so far. I can’t say that I’m permanently off from it just yet, but I really hope this will be a permanent decision in the near future🥹. This is just a talking video so it’s a little boring but I’m gonna be back with a vlog version of how my new life is like without social media💃Please enjoy and thanks for coming by🫡

I deleted Instagram, tiktok, and facebook two weeks ago out of nowhere. I’m just sick of social media. My mind is so much clearer without it
RIGHT. So much clearer!
When you mentioned the whole having more time to care for yourself and not random information about others, I felt so seen! I was always exhausted and didn’t want to invest in myself or my family and friends because “social media” made it easy for me to be distracted and updated on their life.
Now I actually have enough energy to invest in myself and in my personal relationships because I am not dependent on social media to make it easy for me to feel “fake productive” or “kept up” with my relationships.
It is nice to hit the reset button and claim life back. I think social media isn’t always bad but when you have been on it since you are a teen, it’s almost engraved in your as normal and depending on the algorithm, and the user personality, it can definitely turn sour and one won’t even know they feel stuck or mental fog. I want to normalize social media breaks, life still exists without it.
This! We need to remind ourselves that real life exists too
this is so real, i feel like knowing what everyone is doing all the time overloads your brain and almost makes you feel like people are looking over ur shoulder. my bsf deleted insta and tiktok and i probably should but i'm honestly afraid of being bored
You won’t be bored I promiseee! You’ll find so much more fun things to do
You eventually get used to it. I got rid of it for 6 months and came back for a week and hated it.
That’s so good to hear🤝
I deleted instagram last year September and I’ve never looked back. Honestly the best thing I’ve removed from my life
@@ayoy9 Yay!!!
Setting screentime limit helps a lot❗️
It really does!
feeling super real 🫶🏼🫶🏼 subbed and will be following your journey
Thank you so much🫶🫶
Girl I feel you, I want to delete every social media except TH-cam
DO ITTTT
I totally agree with you have been off the social media since January and it feels amazing!! And people be taken aback when I say I don’t have social media 😅
@@Elena01017 I get the same reaction😔😔
What do you personally do in your free time without social media other than like jobs and family
I want to try this! Not permanently because i have 3 close online friends, but for a time period if i remember my passwords
slsskskkss lmaooo bestie i did the same i literally deleted my ig account like last week i literally have sm more clarity and more time for other things
YES
@@alyssasbyy LESGOOOOO🗣️
fellow Gen z here who has also deleted all her socials except TH-cam. life is so much simpler.
Best Idea❤
🙌🙌
TH-cam is best platform for self improving and for educational purposes but, I need to quite youtube shorts, endless scrolling tht sucks ma time .
I feel you😔 TH-cam serves a great purpose but I spend way too much time on it because of it
i deleted social media but now i cant keep up witht he world like see who got drafted in the nba and such if we go to war you know
@@Vybe130 true I also realized that it’s much harder to keep up with the world without social media
@@alyssasbyy yeah but it’s whatever I just don’t have social media because I don’t have any friends I spend most my time just gaming
I know many people who didn't touch grass for years haha
I got rid of mines in 2015
I deleted 2 days ago I'm happy right now
Let’s keep our happiness🕺
i suggest you watch the social dilemma
I’ll have a look🤝
nice channel
Thank you!
😂5 days
As a dude it's nice to know women do this too lol. If I had a cute girlfriend I'd have her just take over my social media lol
MEN DO THIS TOO?😭😭😭
@@alyssasbyy Of course. Especially we look for if a woman has a lot of guy friends.
I haven’t had instagram in 5 months. I reached a point where i think it’s straight up stupid
Amazinggg😌
Listen y'all : QUITTING SOCIAL MEDIA WILL MAKE YOU REDISCOVER YOURSELF, improve your critical thinking, imagination, social skills.
Quit it. Now.
Emphasis on the rediscovering yourself. It’s been the best part for me!
This video highlights all the reasons I also quit instagram. I deactivated my account 6 months ago...one of the best decisions I've made as well!
So glad to hear that someone else resonates with my reasons🥹
I'm Brazilian and here people spend an average of 9 hours a day on their cell phones, it's absurd.
If you are not using your cell phone to learn, or make money, you are wasting your time!
I'm a Millennial and Instagram to me is just Facebook but worse, just like how Tiktok is a worst TH-cam. Why is something with less, or worse features more popular?
The problem is….If I delete Instagram, I‘ll start scrolling on TH-cam shorts
Don't worry. youtube shorts are far less addictive.
@@armandaneshjoo No, they are :((
Try to find a new thing to keep you entertained like reading
I’m guilty too😬😬
If you pause your watch history and delete all your previous history, it stops you from being able to scroll on TH-cam shorts :p
your so smart, beautiful, love from france ❤😊 enjoy your time off this toxic apps girl
