I deleted my Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram

How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen?

As of two years ago, I’ve been completely off the mainstream social media, relegating my time to YouTube and TikTok (started recently). I did it to improve my social skills. Overall, I think it’s been a complete success and I would do it again.

I would know to do this by asking how much time I’m spending on social media, and what else I’m doing. If I’m really busy overall, I may not have time for it, and it’s kind of a wash. If I am getting socially anxious and not fulfilling my other responsibilities, it might be time for it to go.

I delete my accounts, and accept the blowback that comes from not being easily accessible.
