deleting all my socials˚୨୧₊♡

✿hello every1!✿


So I recently made the decision to delete social medias off of my cellphone. This included instagram, snapchat, discord, pinterest, facebook, shuffles, and noplace. 

I had been debating deleting my socials for a long time, but like most people my age it was a bit of a struggle to do since I have been using them for years and everyone I know uses them. I do want to be CLEAR that I did not delete my accounts entirely, and I can still log into my accounts on a computer, but deleting them off of my cellphone has made me use them drastically less. 

It has been about a week or so since I did it, and I can already notice a difference in myself and my life. I watch tv instead of endlessly scrolling, am finding more hobbies to keep myself busy like journaling and crafting, and I spend more time with physical people than people online. I have only logged into insta once for like 5 minutes and I can honestly say that I do not miss any of these apps. 

I also decided to delete several (if not most) of the unnecessary apps on my cellphone to force myself to depend on it less. 

The only apps I have on my cellphone now are the ones that come on it from factory, tiktok, happy street, and starbucks for rewards lolz. I dont reach for my phone as much which feels refreshing and I feel like I have more time in each day since I dont spend half of it staring at a screen.

yes!!! i was literally just debating deleting instagram again and you might have convinced me... life without these social medias always feels better, even though its hard to know what to do without the instant gratification its like you said you find other hobbies to fill the gaps which are healthier and more productive :)
