Hello Guys!

i want to share my experience with you. i have been addicted to social media long time ago. But lately i have deactived all my accounts and promised myself i won't get back soon and that even if i get back i won't be addicted to it like the first.

it make me rethink about everything in my life. to focus only on myself , get connect to it again , spend time only with myself and understand it.

i realised that social media made my depression even worst everytime. the much of negativity there, and also seeing ppl achieving their goal and living their best moment made me hate myself and be frusturating.

i thinked also of all the things i'm doing in my life and why i do them. am i doing them for ppl to impress them or for myself?

and trust me, i found out a lot of things i was doing them just to get the attention of ppl. But i'm happy now to say that i have made a promise to myself to not do anything for anyone and to do everything to myself cz i want to appreciate myself and i don't care what other ppl may think of me.

the Most important thing is yourself.

I hope my experience can help you to have a clear vision about some stuff, and i would like to hear your opinions.

have a Good Day xx

Hi I avoid social media except for on here. The last thing I want or need is to think that others lives are better than mine, even if they aren't. Well done. x
