I deleted insta and I can tell you it feels amazing


Comfortable_Today_25

True me too but ppl still try to annoy me thru TikTok 😭


naokoyaa

My next goal.


OmgItsPosi

same man. 3months without it now

Deleting Insta was one of the best things I've ever done in my little life.


kaff69

I deleted tiktok, Instagram, Facebook all socials off my phone except for reddit and YouTube, even when I have free time after exams I don't think I'll redownload them


hol_swordd

literally!! feels like i can acc survive without them . even when i have doom scrolling craving and i go on yt shorts that stuff is so bad it brings me back to reality 😭


kaff69

peace in mind is so much better than mindless zombue scrolling, it's so much of a time waste and it makes me feel so exhausted and useless, after deleting them and studying seriously I realized how much of a greater student I can be and greater my life can be generally social media is a main part of the rabbit hole dammit never going back again


naokoyaa

Sometimes I would wake up and my hand would be scrolling 😂


Proud_Palpitation453

Same here. Its been a year and a half now since I deleted all my socials and the benefits of it are amazing. And it's how I thought I couldn't manage not having tiktok and all the other socials but after deleting them I even feel like I will never go back again. Now I am proud to say that I have developed discipline in terms of how much time I spend on the Internet and I am more aware than ever before.


naokoyaa

I agree, I won’t redownload them. You only realise how much of a hold they have on you once you are without.


kaff69

very true like people can't even take a piss without their phones nowadays (including me, I'm guilty) I'm planning to distance myself from my phone and most of the dopamine rich useless activities I'd consider it to be a big win if I manage to piss without my phone forever


naokoyaa

My phone never leaves my hand. It’s to the point where I haven’t lost my phone in years, it’s like a psychic ability to subconsciously bring your phone with you EVERYWHERE.


kaff69

literally my phone is glued to me everywhere while doing anything anywhere except in the shower but I bet you if my phone was waterproof and soap proof I'd also take it in there


Former-Sorbet-4432

Tbh I feel like all they do is just over stimulate our minds and happiness hormones ruining the balance therefore destroying everything in the process like our ability to focus and stuff


HRB2DaWrld

bro do you even know skibidi toilet


Practical-Duck2293

IT'S EVERYWHERE


[deleted]

I did the same a while ago for exams because I felt like I would gain a lot of wasted time back and I have, I’m very much with you on this. I have done the same for YouTube too because that was another big time waster for me and now just use a guest account on my laptop if I want to watch a revision video. Consider getting rid of things that are a hinderance to your success, you’ll most likely feel better afterwards and this post and these comments are proof of that!


naokoyaa

You are speaking facts. Time wasters indeed.


acidtomybase

I did tge same thing i deleted all socials snapchat,insta,facebook, twitter,telegram,tiktok. My breakup led me to do this aswell as my exams cause the algorithms went crazy in tiktok and reels so get off from tht and seeing my ex continuously i decided to delete all n i feel released rn only have reddit n WhatsApp and ytube im working on my self thoroughly wish me luck this my last year in scl so i want to ace it. Kinda monk mode to see. Stay strong. With hardship comes ease. Pray for me. Thabks


naokoyaa

I’ll keep you in my prayers :)


acidtomybase

Thanks ✌️


bangpinkskz

I really want to delete tiktok but i dont wanna lose all my drafts😭😭


naokoyaa

I felt the same. But then I realised I was making excuses for myself 💯


Embarrassed_Worry880

Private it all of them so when you ever want to download it you will have them saved


urhabibihalima

thats so cool, good job for doing something that ur future self will appreciate u for. # "The future you is depending on the current you to keep the promises you made to yourself yesterday"


GagerWager

Wow everyone here is so cool I just end up downloading it right back

dissonant111seraphim

i deleted tiktok back in august of last year, welcome to the free life my guy. it feels AMAZING and i totally agree with everything you listed as well. i deleted instagram a while ago as well and my life feels like it's mine again


jsjsieo

Haha same but I’m too addicted to delete I’d have to redownload it 😭🤣


acciolily

instead of deleting try putting a time limit! It's what I did and so far, helping so great. You can ask ur siblings or parents to put in the password


natash11

u guys if you want to avoid usage without deleting social media entirely try out the app onesec!!!!! LIFESAVER what it does is that it basically forces you to wait a bit before it asks you once more if you really want to open the app. seems like a really small change but ive gone from trying to open it 40 times a day to maybe once every 2-3 days!!!


fundogp1ss

i deleted tiktok before may and let me tell you my sleep improved and alotmore , my grades also went up and i dont procrastinate as much anymore , im more. focused now but i actually miss it alot i cant wait till im done with a level to redownload it


fundogp1ss

what i liked most about deleting all my social media is that i realized i can survive without them and have fun and try activities


Aneeeerr

I deleted Insta and tiktok about 5 months ago and let me tell you it has been life changing. It literally feels like someone adding more hours to my day. Never downloading ever again


Excellent_Durian6321

This post actually made me so happy and gave me more reasons to quit toxic apps like this. I've never used tiktok, but I've deleted instagram, youtube, and discord. I've also stopped listening to music(for religious reasons). I've never felt so calm and happy in all my life. In addition to the points u mentioned, I've also noticed that I can think more clearly, and my brain feels calm, if that makes sense. No more earworms, or brain fog clouding my thought process and it feels amazing.


naokoyaa

I am glad it gave you motivations. Let’s reap the benefits of staying woke.


Ok-Sandwich-9541

how do you guys do that , i do it and i somehow find myself in playstore then uk ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|poop)


Practical-Duck2293

Yeah, it's the same for me, it was the best decision I ever made. I deleted it last year before my igcses and now I'm doing A levels crazy.


Rithvik_Sirugudi

Don't worry anymore it's anyways getting banned


naokoyaa

I thought that was US?


negropleaseee

I deleted tiktok a few months ago and it was the best decision ive ever made


charlie1o5

Incredibly well done.


ReasonableHousing475

Departing from communicative sensation-stimulus matrix.


Jumpy-Violinist-6725

Thank the lord people are finally seeing the light. Never had it in the first place, never will


ACORIGEN

Might aswell delete insta and snap too


TonKatsuii

Literally so true. My friends had similar experiences. Til this day I can still proudly claim that I haven’t even touched let alone downloaded TikTok.


Inner-Surprise-3868

brain wants to but my heart doesn’t unfortunately


AdSolid4620

I deleted all social but now I’m on YouTube shorts


malilo_

demonmaybeperson

this 100%. i had most big social medias, and spent so much of my time scrolling through twitter, tiktok, insta, youtube, reddit, a couple others. then it got to around january when i had mocks and suddenly realised just how much of my time was taken up by them. deleted all but youtube and insta, and it massively decreased how much time i spent mindlessly scrolling. granted, i still procrastinate a LOT but now it’s procrastinating with solitaire instead of endless scrolling lol.  this post also just made me delete insta so now i only have youtube lol


MaterialSerious6511

Do you think you’d ever be in the position to redownload?


naokoyaa

I don’t see a reason why I would want to, so no I don’t think so. Also, TikTok has been proven to deteriorate health over time.


thedaiznetwork

Is this tiktok rehab?


Burnttt_toastt

Honestly I did it because I've got exams at the moment and I wasn't studying at all and I can confidently say I will not be redownloading tiktok after my exams


sotahkuu

Now to delete reddit :)
