I deleted all my social media!

Julia
Yes, I know, I sound crazy! Today I made the conscious choice to delete all my social media! Instagram, twitter, Facebook, snapchat, photttoo, you name it! Why may you ask? Because social media has completely consumed me. I would constantly sit on my phone and refresh over and over until more photos or tweets popped up on my feed. I felt like a robot. I would always be caught up on the latest drama, the trending pictures/videos, and all that other good stuff. I was so absorbed that it took a toll on my grades, and even how I viewed myself. It made me worry too much. So I have decided to focus completely and entirely on myself and appreciate the world that's right in front of me, instead of sticking my face in a screen for hours on end each day! I hope some people feel spontaneous enough to either deactivate their accounts or even just take a break for a little while so that they can focus on their lives. We'll never get these days back. Will I miss it? Of course. At first I felt extremely trapped and lonely, but now I couldn't be happier with the choice I've made. And will I ever make another account? Possibly. But for now, I will be social media- free!
