My Conscious Life | why I quit social media

I quit social media and I don't regret it. I hired a virtual assistant to manage my podcast IG page but as for me... no social media!

Leh, I encourage you to check out "Facebook is ripping apart society" here on KZbin when u get time, And hear what the people that played a big part in the creation of some of these sm apps had to say!, try not to be surprised. Its interesting to say the least and its only 10 minutes. I hope your sm fast is going well.

[@kennyg.6608]

Social media is toxic, as a whole. I have been gone from Facebook ( the only sm i used) for almost 7 months now, with no plans to return. There isn't much like living in your own skin,with your own thoughts and not influenced by what I see on a sm app. U will reap many personal benefits if you stay away. I'm a witness to this. Your vid is further wisdom and courage for me to stay off. Thank you for your further elaboration.

[@kennyg.6608]

Well over a year now and I feel so back down to earth and human! I have my thoughts back, my peace of mind. It kinda feels like I'm living back in the early 2000's before social media took hold!...I don't know what else to say I just feel free and paying more attention to the people and the world around me. I am never coming back to Facebook. No reason to, no utility, nothing meaningful to my life. I feel good!, And I plan on living the rest of my life social media free, mentally and spiritually independent.

[@sleeplessinstockwell]

Glad it’s working out for you. Like you, only had FB, for almost 15yrs. So many mental ups & downs with it. Two months free and really can’t see myself going back now.

Social media ruined a great relationship I had with a guy and affected my mental health. I deleted all social medias

[@reneed414]

Yess . I was addicted. Ignoring my kid’s . Not helping them with homework . Up all night . It’s draining . N it caused me to loose focus .

[@kennyg.6608]

All I had was facebook and it will be a full year away Jan,1st. The peace, the serenity, living in the moments, in touch with real life and my surroundings, paying immediate family more attention , back reading, working out,writing. It's totally worth it and I am never coming back. We only get one life let's make the most of it In "real life" before it's gone.

[@jyoungspins2200]

I deleted my Facebook account recently - mainly because I was spending too much time scrolling for my reason as well as most of my Facebook “friends” aren’t really my friends 😂 So why am I sharing with these folks who I don’t have a relationship with in the real world.

[@lboogy85]

We left social media, to only be in bondage to personality types. I spent six years in that stuff, and all it does is keep you in a mental box of something that you may or may not fully be. We're not coming to the realization of a personality type, we are coming to the realization of who we are which extends outside of personality types. We are each uniquely made by God, and by God alone. It is better to know God, than to know thyself, because just because you know yourself, doesn't mean that certain parts of yourself are going to lend themselves to your most quality life. For example I was an "ISFP". I was told I couldn't be scientific or like math, so I felt for a long time I was a INTJ or INTP. When I came to God, I stopped liking clothing so much, and stopped spending so much time on my appearance. Those seem to be big kickers for ISFPs. But I realize the benefits of not being so focused on vain endeavors. You spend less time judging yourself unnecessarily, and therefore you spend less time judging others unnecessarily. Because of that you sow good seed and not tares. In addition, God talks to me in scientific terms, and sometimes I'm surprised, because of the brain washing of Myers-Briggs and the enneagram, but the truth is He is the one who sowed me together that way. Many that are called to be children of God have a case of mistaken identity, Miss Zion (who's name represents the highest Mountain in the city of peace which God loves most of all) and that's exactly what these things are about. I never grew knowing my Myers Briggs type, but only through knowing God. That is our rightful place. So true what you're saying...Ephesians 6. May He reveal Himself to you on your spiritual journey.

[@madkittyjoey70]

Facebook is the most poisonous of all social media sites. I'm planning to quit FB for good soon because I don't feel happy on there at all. I found myself always comparing myself to everyone else's good stuff and things such as gossip, political posts, and irrelevant photos grew so tiring.

[@kennyg.6608]

That's all I used was fb and god knows I'm never coming back to it after being away for 15 months now. There is no purpose for it in my life, there is no utility.

I've been back and forth with quitting SM over the past couple of days since starting a new spiritual journey. As a 5 and an IN type myself I totally agree with your statement on the lack of authenticity on SM. Thanks for sharing your perspectives.

[@esmeraldazarate3849]

Wow thank u so much! I’m also an INFJ and lately I’ve been trying to discover who I am and my true self but with all this overstimulation and this social media it has been really difficult, sometimes I try to be like others and it feels uncomfortable.

[@saramarkowiczenglish]

Thank you for your video ! So important to talk about it. When I left social Media (totally deleted everything) for a few months, everything changed about the way I was living even though I wasn't sending so much time in it. But I was just more focused on everything and I started to call people directly more and more. Today I only put Instagram back to share about natural healing and I feel good about it because it's in the direction to help others and not talk about my life just for ego ! It changed everything ! Have a great day !

[@goodperson7740]

It seems tougher when you don’t really have friends you connect with in the real world… I barely have friends online too. It’s just mindless scrolling, feeding dopamine that has become a habit

[@ellona3645]

I leave from time to time and it's refreshing how peaceful my mind is. Even though I mute people, it's still getting on my nerves. Don't know if I can fully delete it but deactivating helps me :) There's also pro's in social media and I enjoy it.

[@kennyg.6608]

All I had was facebook and it's been deactivated since the end of 2020. I deleted the app but still use messenger sometimes. I don't see any definitive reason to be on social media unless it's making money. We can waste time doing so many other things as far as time wasted. Live your "real life" and do what makes u happy and content

[@Iquey]

Oh man.. I'm the same as you. Infj AND an Investigator personality/type 5 with hints of Helper or type 2.. But social media can really bring out the worst in our personality type. 😂 It's just not built for us. It's like no matter how much I research the algorithms and how they supposedly work, my true feelings don't want to perform ALL that hoop jumping and song and dance.

[@EarthtoLela]

exactly! ha ha hey twin!

[@Flowergirl222]

This is exactly same for me, but I’m an enneagram four//the individualist. I can’t stand how fake it all is and how it tries to force me into a box. It’s too much and makes me feel frustrated. I don’t miss it at all.

[@patricia_1303]

I was going through some difficult times and I needed a social media detox, it’s been 2 months so far but I’m not even bothered if I go back on it. I feel a lot calmer and I don’t compare myself to others as much. Great video!

Oh wow, been Searchin all through KZbin to give me resonating story on how I feel as of why I deleted my social media and you stated something about INFJ which I just learned about and it just makes more sense why I just flat out cold turkey deleting my page especially after a break up with a narcissist.

[@musicalgal1992]

I'm currently struggling with Social Media Addiction, & am trying to get off. I FINALLY deleted my Instagram & Tiktok accounts. I'm STILL struggling with trying to get off of Facebook, though. I'm currently in the "Uninstall/Reinstall App" stage for Facebook. It's gotten to where I'll go on once a day just to post a list of things I created on paper, & even check my notifications while I'm at it. But then it's time to get off & "Uninstall" the app right after, until next time. I have faith that it WILL eventually get to the point where "KZbin" will be my ONLY Social Media Account that will remain active. Like you, at least I feel safer HERE than on any of my other Social Media accounts.

Taking the time to open up and explain is something my dad taught me to do. Communicating I n life is the best way to heal everything that upset s us. In life not on media. Omg I try to get my message where everyone will see it. Silence is golden but nit always the best in some situating but I am learning to jus be still and now it not media time Living for today and relate relax release and most of all. Turn off the news. Love and live more and no one said you can’t send your cousin a post card lol jus be and smile and make those darn bucket list. Get busy and be gratitude my old hippie mentor said is our best thing to practice we git everything we need if we jus see light and remember the good ! No dwell on bad and More than words ( a good song ) people go to extremes when frustrated but learn to truly forgive .. by opening up those doors ! I never hide and my guru said Simplify abs Serenity prayer. What will be will be. Let it go ..leave things in gods hands !

[@charleshurstreinvention3959]

There is something that will impede your advancement as I told my own subscribers. Addiction to social media. Now social media can be a good thing for advertising your business, YT channel or the like. But having your entire existence based on it is not. First there is the unhealthy aspect of comparing yourself to other profiles which usually aren't nearly as stellar in real life as they are on the front page. Then there is the aspect where your validation is being sought from people you rarely talk to in real life--if ever. Not to mention the constant quest of follows and likes also drops minute amounts of dopamine in your system literally physically making you addicted to social media. Which leads to later anxiety increase and depression. But also--if you are spending all your time on your iPhone then you aren't advancing yourself. Think about how much more you could learn about stock trading if you cut social media 90% down? That's my end point. It should be a very small part of your life not the center of it. Hope that helps someone out there---Charles

Be simple and hope butterfly return s social media did not do me much good it something I need to let go of and Focus on life living one moment at a time and putting energy where it will do most good my family My goals my not media life will improve if I ..rise and shine and jus be I jus read my old comment s I wrote. Media is a journal of day to day thoughts but I hear what she’s saying. Outside of media is where it at simplify ! Good will find good and we all need to grow and heal. Life’s a journey I appreciate the ones that truly understand my words. Jus for today. I don’t want to go backward s I n this life media ok now and then but I want to enjoy life more and it’s ok to do what s best for you in this life. Now lots to do. I am in that building each day now it’s omg enjoy life more and I hope you do the same my media peeps. Namaste love and light ! My people know where to find me lol they should omg I posted a lot in the years and sent that girl a million cards ( they weren’t all bad ) and I keep getting live chat stuff. I no do that.
