Social Media has been a part of my daily routine for 10 years of my life, but earlier last year i’ve decided to dial it down a bit and quit instagram, one of most used platforms. Fast forward to the end of last year I permanently deleted twitter, my favourite and most beloved social media account. When i realized how much weight that had lifted off my shoulders I decided to go full force and completely off all of my accounts. Its a decision that to this day i do not regret:) !!
hopefully this video helps you out a but if you’re in the same boat, it’ll be tough, but its definitely worth it!

March 26th, 2021: The day I deleted social media for good. However, it’s been a long process and as a Gen Z who grew up on the internet and I wanted to share the process with you. Social media is not all bad, but I think it’s more important than ever (after 1 year of being inside) to take a break from TikTok, Instagram and Facebook.

I have a confession… (The Social Dilemma) by Jared Polin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D9CrOKkk_4
Back in 2019, I deleted my Instagram of over 4,000 followers. I was spending SO much time on the app dealing with comparison and rarely spending any time alone. As a photographer people told me this was my “business card” and deleting it would be a terrible decision. After getting rid of social media, I was able to focus more clearly on my tasks, goals, and vision for my life.
You have your small friend group in life that will help give you advice and guide you, but without realizing it we allow a much bigger group of people to start dictating our decisions. There’s a clear difference between our followers and our friends and we’ve lost that reality. I decided to get away from social media and delete the account, I needed to reset because what I had been doing was not working.
Social media apps are designed to keep our brains over-stimulated and addicted to their product. Our culture is so afraid of silence and alone time, but we have to start embracing these moments in order to find ourselves.
“We’re living for people we’re never going to meet, and neglecting people that are going to be here forever”
