I am thinking of removing WhatsApp altogether from my phone! Do you still have it?

This is the last connection i have to my family. I feel that app does not bring me any good and beside my sister who only messages me to send bad news or ask for something, only three people still message me there.

I also have work people there whom I am not interested to chat with in the first place, work group where no one posts and when they post I don’t participate and other WhatsApp groups which I have been thinking to delete because meh these people are no longer part of this phase of my life..

This whole what’sapp makes me depressed .. when i hear the notification sound, makes me anxious!

I don't use whatsapp at all but I think in your circumstances I'd have a second phone just for that, I'd keep it in a drawer and only look at it very occasionally when I was in a mood to do so.

@AntisocialTroll nah I don’t want to keep holding onto this one way or another. Enough, I just want to move on. Keeping another phone is like keeping a cause for anxiety to keep wondering with myself if i should look and what could possibly be waiting for me there

I have it. It sounds like you should delete it, though. If an app you don’t need is making you anxious, I don’t think it’s worth having.
Also, the messages will still get delivered to your WhatsApp account even if you don’t have the app installed, so if you want to redownload it every few months to check, the messages will be there waiting for you.
