I just thought this could be helpful to write out and show others that this can be a constant battle and that you will emerge victorious and figure it out.
Been on self improvement and mental health + self care for a while now. Always been an ongoing back n forth between using social media or not. I’ve finally begun to finalize my thoughts that stuff like Instagram, Tiktok and Snapchat just aren’t worth it anymore.
Snapchat is for teenagers and I’m done with that phase in my life💀
Instagram is a networking and now multi-purpose platforms that in my life has way more negatives/drawbacks than it does positives.
TikTok is not bad because in a way it’s a new gen Youtube. But the infinite scroll is too toxic and too many distracting things such as lots of women, addicting type of content and memes or whatever trends to keep up.
Now, you’re probably asking “how is this a success story?”
Valid question. It’s my success story because I’m finally just done. Maybe it’s “red pill” kind of thinking but I just don’t want to hate myself and kill my passion, motive, discipline, all of it. I really want to focus in on my spiritual energy and my mind. I have many ambitions, desires and whatever else. I can’t afford to settle for something quick, free and bland to fulfill a need anymore.
