Congratulions! About 2 years ago, I took a 1 year break from social media (joined again in 8/2016). It was a great time to just reconnect with myself and go back to the “old fashioned” way of making plans: texting and phone calls! 🙂
I recently realized that social media (mostly Facebook) perpetuates my anxiety about relationships, so I’m taking another break beginning this weekend- I’ve already announced it to my friends. I’ll look at it occasionally to see if there are events I want to attend, but other than that, I won’t be using it as a means for entertainment anymore. Now that I’ve fully realized the extent to which Facebook highlights my insecurities, letting go of it seems much easier.
I fully applaud your decision to jump off social media for a while! Please post soon about how it’s going 🙂
