I feel like our generation is slowly realizing how damaging social media is to our attention spans, mental health, and productivity. A year ago, I got rid of my iPhone and picked up a flip phone, and thus went off of social media. It has been a year, and here are my discoveries and thoughts!

I quit social media as a student. Why? I felt like it was wasting my life and wanted to see if I could make it without social media. Will it get me better grades? Will i be more happy?

I deleted social media for 7 days. I felt my brain was being overloaded with dopamine lately and I needed a good detox to reset my brain, build momentum with discipline, and find joy in my personal life. This challenge was super fun and I hope you guys take something from this video. Enjoy 🙂
in our visual-audio society, our main method of communication are images and videos. this has greatly affected our attention span, the purpose of news, and how we interact with information and knowledge. changing the form of a medium changes everything.

So like… I quit social media to see how it’s like on the other side. I touched some grass, sniffed a couple of dogs, became more mentally unstable… or stable. I’m not really sure. But hi! hello!
