I know several here wrestle with the whole FOMO thing, but I could fall off tomorrow and not skip a beat in life because it’s not my life…it’s merely a little part of it. There’s definitely some cool people who bring about some pretty nifty and heartfelt exchanges, but there’s the other side of this site that makes it really easy to take some steps back and bring reminders of why you can’t get sucked into it. It’s just too much sometimes and borderline unhealthy to be addicted to any form of social media. It’s too big of a time and energy waster and seriously compromising to one’s mental health.
nowic2 · 61-69, M
@PerfectionOfTheHeart yes, definitely some cool people here. You are one of them 🙂
@PerfectionOfTheHeart Very well said.
It tends to be more so for me when in-person life /relationships aren't going well.

Think its fair to say there are many here because of such struggles .. that come for the connection / support they can find at times. Not surprising it can become addictive in those situations, when people are most vulnerable.

@BrandNewMan Yes this answer is spot on~
FreestyleArt · 36-40, M
No. But I have family on here I love and cherish. You know who you ares.

Even though I don't social a lot.
nowic2 · 61-69, M
@FreestyleArt it’s good to have your tribe
FreestyleArt · 36-40, M
@nowic2 I cherish them. God bless us all
LavidaRaq · F
Same, here awhile, gone awhile. But always come back. Kinda like Hotel CA , you can check out but you can never leave lol
nowic2 · 61-69, M
@LavidaRaq yep, know the feeling
Thrust · 56-60, M
@LavidaRaq it is. It's like a community you ordinarily wouldn't see. Every type imaginable
Well, I have left several times over the years since SW started and I keep coming back, so addiction is a plausible diagnosis.
Lilymoon · F
It works for me usually, because I'm off and on in small doses.
I'm not here all day posting every half hour lol
@Lilymoon Same.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
I'm not here as much as I used to be. I take it in cycles.
nowic2 · 61-69, M
@LadyBronte I hope this is a good cycle for you 🙂
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@nowic2 Thanks.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Adogslife I have limited friends as well. And you have never intruded, at least in my opinion.
Strongtea · 22-25, M
Yes it’s pretty addictive, I have some good friends here.
Nope! Not ane more i only post every 2-3 days so i keep myself from getting addicted like i used to be
nowic2 · 61-69, M
@TryingtoLava a good move
lissah · 36-40, F

Lilnonames · F
@lissah yup that's me as well, the algorithm killed s w
being · 36-40, F
Yes yes though I am taking pretty abundant breaks and so it somehow works...
scorpiolovedeep · 51-55, M
Addiction ? No

I post occasionally.
Selective in my interactions.

As for as DMs are concerned,no one goes that extra mile and invests in intentional conversations.
YoMomma ·
I was off for a few days
No, but, I do enjoy it. In moderation.
nowic2 · 61-69, M
@MayorOfCrushtown good to hear. They say moderation is best
SlippingAway · 46-50, F
Sometimes, I left for a couple of years and came back recently
nowic2 · 61-69, M
@SlippingAway hope you’re enjoying & stay awhile. 🙂

Sweet00Lullaby · 36-40, F
Not addictive for me.
DDonde · 31-35, M
It has been
val70 · 51-55
No, not really. Stay the user in the sense that you're using it for a purpose that advances yourself
SW is like selling your soul to the Devil more than it is addictive, for me.
@cinsac how
@TryingtoLava Because everytime we respond to something, it's like being naked in front of all of you. Being judged, and scrutinized for our words, which may, or may not be understood.
@ExperienceDLT youre really embracing tumbleweeds post hahah
@TryingtoLava 😁 pfffft
