Anyone been avoiding social media lately?

I have been too busy with work and socialising to use socials and it has been amazing . Life feels so fulfilling and as it was before the pandemic ,but better since I have changed a lot of things for myself

Por eso no uso social media.

Less time here and I don't seek out a lot of news that is intended to be what we see and hear.
This is a three day weekend and when it's done, deleting my account. It's too much negativity.

I have been avoiding it for the simple fact there is way too much drama in the world today. We need peace and good news. Social media just reanacts nightmare s

I only ever come here, but I’ve definitely been avoiding the news.

errr ive been binged watching true crimes on YouTube so i don't think that makes any difference since there's also those kinds of stories there

Yes big drama stuff sadly, trying to tune out all the heartache got a kid and family to worry about.

Can't blame you LLB. Virtually nothing to gain by tragedy porno☹️

I'd much rather discuss something real naughty!😈

Most people dislike me so I don't use it been cyber bullied enough

I haven't had the energy to get on much

I took a break for a few days for that very reason

Just boof it all away.

For me the effect is cumulative. So even if I avoid news and media the damage has already been done and any future exposure only makes things worse. For me there is no healing.

Yep. I don't need any more negativity in my life right now.

Not intentionally avoiding it, just too busy to be on it

Only here and sparingly at that

Not avoiding it. Just not absorbing the negativity anymore. It's all about how you use it.

I stopped watching the news in around highschool, it's nothing but negative stuff and half-truths

Yeah sw and YouTube for work, I avoid social media for that reason
