Gotta say, I quit social media for 3 reasons: 1) Toxic people on Tumblr; not only that, but I began to feel sick whenever I would scroll through it. 2) Account deactivation BS: I tried to log into my FB account only to learn it was taken down bc I "violated the guidelines" (despite I hadn't posted anything in months and just used it to chat with my bf on Messenger) -Tried making a Twitter account, only to get locked out *while I was in the middle of creating my profile!* 3) Reddit said I had to have a Twitter/Apple+ account to post anything. Finally decided I really have no need for it, and decided to leave it behind.

I quit social media once. What I found was... I no longer had "real friends." I tried to reach out to the few local people who I had maintained tenuous contact with entirely through social media, but nobody was interested in physically meeting up or making phone calls anymore. Nobody let me know about important things happening in their life, because they assumed that once they shared it on social media, everyone who needed to know about it already knew. My entire social life was online. I was SO. LONELY. I tried making new friends, but I live in an area affected by the Seattle Freeze; if you don't know, that's a regional social phenomenon where basically adults never ever make new friends. So I went back online, and I don't regret it.

i haven't deleted my socials and i have no plans to, but i did stop consuming political content recently. i used to be the type of person to constantly be up to date on all the breaking news and literally everything politics, i felt like if i wasn't up to date on everything all the time that i was missing vital information and was a bad/uneducated person because of it. i realized that not only were those things not true, but also that keeping a news feed glued to my eyeballs 24/7 was causing me to fall back into depression and worsening my anxiety. i felt hopeless and trapped, like life wasn't even worth living. i came to the realization one day that i didn't NEED to look at these things at all, and it was all just a warped mindset i had developed for myself. it wasn't super easy, but i did it, i stopped engaging with political content online and it was the best decision i've made in a long time! not only am i much happier than before, but i've also been able to use my time to engage with my other interests that bring me so much more joy! now instead of feeling hopelessly depressed because of politics, i've been vibing by playing Animal Crossing and watching Scooby-Doo. now don't get me wrong, i still plan on voting and such in the future; when i say that i don't engage with politics anymore, i mean political commentary and online discourse. voting is important, but driving yourself to becoming depressed and installing a news feed in your brain is not.

This made me realize how much different my experience with social media is from everyone else's. I started social media (outside of KZitem) with Amino in... 2017, I think ? On there, I started a few of my first creative projects and it was awesome, I made a bunch of awesome online friends I'm still in contact with to this day. Over the years I joined other social media either out of curiosity, to stay in contact with people who left Amino because it sucks now, or because school made me. But now I'm inactive on Amino since my tablet is old and the app isn't compatible with it anymore, and not only the app isn't great now, but the site is worse. And since then I haven't been active on online communities at all. No matter the social media, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, Tumblr... I rarely post or even look at posts. The only social media I'm active on nowadays is Discord, and I spend most of my time on it speaking to the friends I made all these years ago that I mentioned earlier. As for KZitem, I'm obviously a lot more active on there, and I even post more too. I'm trying to show my creativity but even the people who subscribed don't seem to care that much about my writing. So as you said, being on there affected my self esteem in a bad way. I just want to do what I love but I apparently I'm not good enough. My creations aren't good enough. But right now I'm fine, I don't feel like that. And personally, I'd rather watch longer videos that required work and research than shorts, so I suppose I have a longer attention span. As for TikTok and Facebook, I just don't have them. TikTok isn't exactly known for having the most interesting and relevant content out there. And the only reason I have Twitter is to upload images and videos from my Switch on there and then go on it with my tablet to download and use them for my content. My lack of presence on social media isn't great to advertise my content, but I can't convince myself to post regularly again due to how high my anxiety and lack of self esteem have gotten since then because of how much my life sucks right now... Now that I wrote all of this, I realize it's an even more complicated situation than I thought it was.

The only other reason I use my phone is for my best friend who is long distance. I checked my phone and I've only been on here for an hour. (Btw this is only after a week of having a phone. I literally have my phone away.) Ive been free for 3-4 months. I actually got a phone to message my friend and cause I do need one cause I'm home alone and need some 911 thing as my mom says. I also have started reading so much and I've read over 9 books within a few months and that was my new years goal. I've accomplished a lot this year and I'm much happier.

Personally I grew up with electronics, I was introduced to social media at 10 years old. So it’s very hard to let go of a habit you’ve done for multiple years now, I got to have my moms iPad at the age of 7, and I don’t remember much from before that age (memory issues), therefore it sounds weird to me to quit or minimize screen time.. over 6 hours a day for every day I can remember. I understand the consequences of having 6 hours screen time daily, but like you said it’s almost like they have you in a chokehold, especially since I get bored extremely fast. I’ve been waiting for a game to come out for a week now, literally checking the countdown every hour.. it’s addicting, almost like some weird drug. I also use social media as an escape from reality so it’s hard to let go of, it’s an extreme source of comfort to me, but this video is very inspiring, I’m gonna try to minimize it for a while and see if it’s helping me in any way.

Thank you for having made this video. I think the key is to get onto social medias that are better for your mental health. After 4673747338 failed attempts I finally grew to hate Instagram so much i quit it at the beginning of 2022. And i spent around half a year without ANY social media. My thoughts finally were mine again, my time finally was mine again, the content I usually create was finally mine again. It was all mine now, mine mine mine. I am a sucker for validation tho so at some point I joined Tumblr instead. Yes Tumblr isnt dead. I am on there for one year and i have almost 500 followers there now and i kick every possible bot. Tumblr has no dumb algorithm that is forced onto you, your followers all see your content reliably, you discover things the oldschool way and if you click onto one depressed post your feed doesnt look like you need therapy for the next few weeks. I am so much SO much happier on tumblr. And I love how slow my feed is. It doesnt force me to scroll 24/7 and waste my time - when i finished scrolling i finished. Maybe check some tags i follow and thats it. And then I go to Reddit and its the same game there. Reddit, Tumblr and KZitem (as consumer)... i dont need more. I am satisfied. And feeling TONS better than before. And you know what? I don't even feel the need to go onto the toxic algorithm-driven social medias anymore :) (youtube is a grey zone somehow it doesnt really make me as addicted as Instagram did so it stays)

In fact, I went 2 years without even looking at Facebook on my PC. I am a believer that phones are for phone calls. I don't chat with random people who try to solicit me, in fact, I block them. I take this view of online strangers, in that they are all out to get me. Ding Ding Ding Train gates coming down, NOPE! Not falling for it, my answer is, If I don't know you, I don't speak to you online at all! There...SAFE! You hit it right on the head when you said that you don't need other people to validate you. So if I want to go to Walmart in my Yoda pants and someone doesn't like it, too bad! Leave Walmart 'cause I'm-not-going-to! I like me and it doesn't really matter to me if others don't.

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZitem channel 6 months ago about self development. Now I have 535 subs and > 100 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

You do have a point about the show thing which is why whenever I watch a show that I’ve never even heard of and that somewhat peaks my interest I will watch it and not look up anything about it (except for which order I should watch the episodes in and whether the show was canceled or not) and especially what the people think about them because I know how easy my opinion can be curved by what others think. This mentality has allowed me to actually enjoy shows like the legend of Korra, She-Ra, Voltron legendary defender, the dragon prince, Wakfu, the hollow, and many others, because even if they aren’t the best shows, even if they all have they have things about them I don’t like, I enjoy them for what they are and I have a feeling that if I were to have looked up how a lot of how fans felt about the shows my opinion would have changed drastically. And before you say she influenced my opinion, I have done this even before I watched this video.

Yeah, quitting social media would be a great thing, honestly. But there’s so many people online who I can relate to, and who I can talk to about what I love and they won’t even think of me differently because they don’t even know me. I can rant to a person who’s equally as passionate about this silly cringe TV show that most people hate. And that’s another reason why people are addicted. It’s not like these randos are my friends, but I can relate to and talk to them, and I don’t have anybody like that (who’s near me) in real life, so it would be hard to get rid of those things that I consider safe spaces. It would be for the better for me to quit, but often I find it comforting

I literally couldn't quit social media even if I wanted to. Not necessarily because of addiction but because all of my friends moved from my state to across the USA. Quitting social media would literally cut ties from my best friends that I've had for nearly a decade. That and I'm in a long distance relationship, I don't need my boo thinking I'm ignoring her on a daily basis. But honestly, I'm not even into social media. I watched KZitem because my room never had cable, I use Discord for friends. That's it. Don't touch Twitter, never installed Instagram, I don't even bat an eye at all the cringe apps. I can safely say I'm not addicte- oh, what's that? I've been playing video games for 20 years? ... Well I guess I'm still addicted to my TV screen.

One day, about 2 years ago, I just decided to cut out all social media and was surprised on how little I missed it. I never looked back. I just noticed that, _at worst,_ I was arguing with a stranger or a group of strangers with mob mentality.(Didn't happen too much, but it did happen. Hence why I never got twitter.) Then, _at best,_ I would be mindlessly scrolling for about 20min until like one meme made me churtle maybe. Rinse and repeat. I just decided to be honest with myself and that truth was, social media never added anything meaningful to my life. It felt up a void in my life with filler. Worse, it stunted personal growth with algorithms and made me angier at the world. I noticed that naunces did still exist too. Outside the internet, when everyone is out if their echo chambers. I also learnt the value of being bored. That it wasn't the enemy. But a calling to get creative, try something new, or go on an adventure. The best part, I got back more time in my life. More time to work out, create art, give the people care about more qaulity time, and with time to spare. My life might feel more like a slower pace. But that is because I got off the treadmill that kept me preoccupied, but emty inside. I am happier and I took back my life and sanity. On social media, I remember feeling chronically nostalgic for better and simpler times. Once I got off, I realized it was still here.

I hate social media because there's so much mean toxic posts that makes no sense, and I especially hate those posts and/or comments that jerks make just because they're jealous of People being happy and gifted, and they dare try to take that away from us! :-| ...idiots... |:-( Social media is ruining in life too, but I won't let it... I encourage you to do the same by ignoring online trolls, and stuff... One time a troll tried to ruin my life, but he ended up killing himself in a car accident... maybe because he knew I'm better than him, and he's just a talentless cyberbully. |:-( *makes Minecraft villager noise* It was easy to move on after that. I love your content, especially your Gaming videos! :D

Honestly, I've found that social media doesn't do much. I love talking to people so much more. I deliberately wait until the next hang out with friends and put about two weeks in between so we have something to talk about during our hang outs. It's so great. I have a handful of people that only reach out to me through facebook messanger, but that's acceptable, because it's more like texting than real social media.

I never really go on other medias besides youtube and most of my friends are in discord, but years gone by and I started slowly leaving screen time, and now I am trying to learm a new language, learn and instrument, now I am even thinking about improving my maths xD and I hated maths... Once social media isnt a big part of life, than you get back to trying to do something, because it does get boring so take advantage to learn something that you always wanted to do, read books or make a book :) hope that helps for anyone

I doubt this comment will be seen with the many others, but I would like to say good for you, CypherDen. I never started social media in the first place when they first started and have never regretted it. As I tell people "The less you have of that the happier you'll be.". I only have KZitem to either listen to music playlists or videos like the new CypherDen video lol. Love the rad art style at the beginning of the video btw and I only have Discord to stay in touch with very dear and close friends, like recently me and dearest friend ended up watching Lackadaisy and had a fun time. Not bothering with social media is better for anyone's mental health because in the end it's meaningless, many years from now major of the things you see from there will never be remembered, and life is short and you're only guaranteed the present the in life, so enjoy it with your loved ones and go after the dreams you have. I guess I'll end this with advice a 103 or man I knew gave me 6 years ago I'll word best from what I recall "Don't spend so much time with your phone, there's plenty of beauty in the world to appreciate even in the smallest flower.". He also loved to four-wheel ride with his neighbors and friends and did so until he was 104 years old and almost made to his 106th birthday. Also, 7:09 Definitely me 🤣 and the The Wet sock Dimension is relatable at 1:17.

I really enjoyed this video. It was informative and taught me a lot about what social media can do to the human mind. I really want to quit it altogether and focus more on being present and in the moment. I have nothing to gain really from being on there. When you brought up the topic of time and how precious it is, it really resonated with me. We only get one family, and we should love while we still can. Thank you so much for making this video. Until next time, keep up the good work, and remember to always make time for yourself.

I was never much for social medias, personally. I have an insta (rarely), and I use Discord (mostly) to talk with friends, but for the most part I just stuck to watching KZitem and doing other things in that time. I won't get on people who use it constantly, but I respect the decision either way. Even if it brings you joy, too much of anything is a bad thing. :)
