How to Get Off Social Media?

. 5 min read

Scrolling through my social media feeds had become a daily ritual. Every time I opened an app, I'd find myself lost in an endless stream of posts, videos, and updates. What started as a quick check-in would often turn into hours of mindless scrolling. It was time-consuming, and it was taking a toll on my productivity and personal life. That’s when I decided it was time to quit social media.

Social media is now an undeniable part of our lives. Is social media really liberating as we think? Do we freely reflect our ideas and ourselves as they are?

Deciding to Quit

The turning point came when I spent an entire weekend glued to my phone, barely interacting with my family or getting anything done. I felt frustrated and disappointed in myself. That’s when I decided: enough was enough. I needed to take control of my time and break free from the clutches of social media. But quitting cold turkey seemed daunting. I needed a strategy, a way to manage my social media without getting sucked in.


Searching for a Solution

I began my quest to find a solution that would help me manage my social media usage without completely cutting it out of my life. I tried various methods—setting time limits, using apps to block access, and even deleting the apps altogether. But nothing seemed to stick. I either bypassed the limits or reinstalled the apps after a few days. The cycle continued, and I felt increasingly frustrated.
