Very accurate! These are the reasons why I decided to quit facebook, instagram and twitter. The bottomline is that it's not really good for our mental health. Even if some people would argue and say that it's their way to stay updated with the news, I highly suggest everyone to install other apps specifically for news update. Also, for those people who can't really help themselves from taking pictures whatever they are doing, maybe it's time to reflect that not every picture is worth posting or maybe they should just keep it in their phones. Right??

Other underlying things about social media that no one talks about is that it: 1. Completely warped the meaning of the word "friend". 2. Gives us an unhealthy and unnatural 24/7 hour access to these "friends". 3. It doesn't let relationships die naturally. By this mean we let people stay on our friends list even though we may haven't seen this person in years.

In some ways it’s made us a prison in our own minds and leading so many mental health issues like anxiety which was never a major problem before social media. We have even starting using dating apps to meet people instead of the old way of meeting people. I’ve personally started deleting my Facebook and Twitter apps to limit my time and if I want to look I need to force myself to down load it again and again so I give up.

Vanity and narcissism. I definitely blame women for being behind most of the toxicity online. Most of us are using it to express ourselves or “go live” during or to discuss toxic situations. Or we blast other people online and start hate groups. We also drag other women by peering into their photo backgrounds and criticizing items in the background. We drag a woman whose makeup isnt done right or her wig or feet dont look right and then it goes viral. Some of the gays are guilty of this behavior too. Women bash other business women and then compare and compete with other brands. Or they fight over men. Men have their messy ways but i think the brunt of the toxicity is bc of females. Im female myself and have to own it.

I've learned to curate my online presence better. Unfollowed the "influencers", thirst trappers, and basically fake and/or unattainable lives of others. In place, I'm following art galleries, space agencies, travel places, Nat geo, and food blogs. It feels more wholesome and less like we need to one up on each other. In addition, I've also started balancing what I post as well. Balancing the positive experiences with the negatives. Sure it might feel somewhat embarrassing to post a bad experience, but posting only your positive experiences only hinders the original goal of creating a better online experience for everyone. Try it! You'll feel good :)

So handsome! Very sweet!” The picture wasn’t even from that moment, and just after I was telling her it’s the same pictures and the same responses from the same people she dropped her phone and hit him in the head and made him cry. Then she got a notification from someone in the group saying how cute he was... is it really worth it? I almost whipped her phone across the house. She is also the type that will be at a cool place and want me to take a picture of her doing some stupid fucking yoga pose and if it doesn’t “look right” she has me retake it.

In our day it was just for meeting new people, lighthearted chat, etc. But now these kids see it literally as a way to live their life. They don't watch TV anymore. They learn from what they see on apps and their phones.

Don't change your life to look like your perfect self and to impress other people that don't care. Focus on doing what is right 100% of time!!

I did use Facebook every hour and I have changed in 2020 during Covid-19. Now I use it under 15 minutes each day.

[@ninjapirate123]

u still use it though

[@erikavaleries]

I was in denial that it is for social climbing, attention, cheating, comparing. Not authentic connecting. I tried to ignore it and stay offline, but I would lose ranking and visibility. All the posts got stupider and more obnoxious. Then I realized I don’t even show up on the radar to others in competition for views. I wanted a real conversation not a private therapy session by someone who will ghost me.

You are absolutely right sir

[@vinaymulukutla358]

What people forget is that by looking at someone else's profile and feeling jealous etc when they show themselves doing activities such as going on holidays, having a fancy dinner in a restaurant, at parties, spending time with girlfriends, boyfriends, spouses, kids etc, you're seeing only what they want you to see and that is usually airbrushed to perfection. You never see or hear of their struggles, gloomy moments or even when they get out of bed looking like a train wreck. It's pretty much a "grass is greener on the other side" manipulation tactic from the dynamics of social media to keep us watching, scrolling etc.

I wish people could actually UNDERSTAND this video. Everything they mention in this video is truth. Social media effects in thoughts,moods, create jealously, the more jealous people became the more they hate you, perfectionsim.

Totally sad but true, nowadays many people including myself are not appreciating in ourselves because of the impact of social media. Moreover, using it also be a waste of time for doing many things. Thanks for making this video!!

[@brookebishop2092]

Social Media does destroy us. All it ever does is show us everyone’s life, who blocks us, ignores us, does not add us, and does not bother with us. It also shows us who gets likes and comments on their stuff. So upsetting.

[@shifty7371]

if someone's already insecure and they see these fake personas and how perfect someone's life is or how good someone looks they might judge themselves off of what they see online we humans have this big problem where we compare our lives to these fake versions of people who make their lives look more interesting then they actually are no one wants to share the bad aspects of life so when people see how "perfect" these people's life's are they may feel alone like no one understands them ik that's what happened to me a couple of years ago and it was a horrible feeling

The double-edged sword of the Internet is that content of any interest exists. Social media is best used for interest-based communities, not addiction.

[@doc.zaid949]

Thank you for sharing this! I used to think that I am alone who has these thoughts, but seems no 😀 I was always good at school when social media still didn't enter our lives this much, but sence then I have always been struggling with anxiety , stress, depression, distraction-easily, lack of focus and self esteem etc etc etc Half year ago I had a big exam in my career and I decided to shutdown social media for 2 months , it was hard at the beginning , but after 2 weeks I realized how peaceful I can live without them! I got my focus , self respect, strength back again and I passed the exam! After that I made the biggest decision in my life to kill this addiction I have toward social media, and deleted my self permanently from all those applications (Facebook, instagram,vk) !!! Nowadays when I meet with my friends or colleges especially that 99% of them are addicted to social media, they consider me as an alien from another planet hahaha but inside me I really feel pity for them, and wish everyone would take this step to realize how great and beautiful our lives can be without this addiction

[@candaceroman584]

I completely understand the jealousy part. I see "happiness" and confidence when I look at other people's posts/profiles and -whoa ho - when I see fitness images...Well I pull my pack of cookies and tub of ice cream so they can accompany me in my blanket fort where I wallow in my lack of self confidence. 😆

[@TheOneAft]

Este video tiene muchos puntos de interés con respecto a las redes sociales. Estoy de acuerdo porque hace unos 20 años no había nada de eso y la gente estaba más tranquila. Ahora sólo quieren que unos "amigos" virtuales les den Like a cualquiera de las cosas que suben a alguna red social. Gente se mata por hacerse una selfie, chicas bailan en Tik Tok mostrando sus atributos para ganar seguidores, jóvenes usan KZbin como si fuese un capítulo de Jackass, etc. Como diría una canción de Reel Big Fish... "Everything sucks!"

[@Aiden214]

Depends how you use it. People don't seem to use it much for personal life anymore, they mostly share around memes. I post what I want, like a diary for my record and to show anyone who cares what I'm up to (usually the great outdoors) and perhaps inspire them to go out and do the same. It's a tool use it in a healthy way and is fine.

[@luismiguelmartinezsanchez4069]
