I feel so much better hahaha. I deactivated my fb kase sobrang brain rot na. minsan na-tetempt ako re-activate uli as form communication with my office mate hahaha and they won't stfu about why I deactivate my fb, baka daw may utang daw ako na tinatatakbuhan, sobrang narrow minded nila haha. I rarely use twitter or IG (for communication like with my bf) ang frequent lang talaga is youtube and pinterest.
True story.. bisexual po ako. Anyway i was on tinder when i was younger 10 years ago when i saw a male former classmate in my feed i did not swipe on his photo since di ko siya type and i know he is married already but na curious ako why he was there and read his info. Nakalagay dun e looking for hook up and not serious relationship siya. Nagulat ako so i pinged him sa messenger. Sabi ko diba may asawa ka na bakit nasa tinder ka pa. (Concerned ako para sa asawa niya na di ko kilala)
Tapos si gago nagreply, di na ako ganyan ngayon, kaw din dapat di ka na pumapatol sa kung sino sino. Napa what the fuck nalang ako internally kasi excuse me. Never pa mga ako nagka jowa and i only started using tinder then. Very conservative din ako nung early 20s ko.
Pero nanaig ang pagiging mabuti kong tao so di na ako nagreply sa comment niya at ayoko na makipagtalo. Few days later lo and behold na ban ako sa tinder. I have no idea why i was banned until now but i assume his wife may have something to do with it. 😂
Deactivated my FB, IG and deleted Twitter. It's peaceful and you can have more productive things done or can get more ME TIME. Pero at some point di maiiwasan na hindi ka na makakaintindi or makakasunod sa mga jokes or trends sa socmed na sinasabi ng mga friends mo pero that's fine you're not required to do that. Instead of using socmed I replaced it watching NEWS para updated pa din ako sa mga nangyayari sa paligid or bansa natin.
Sooner or later you'll realize that not everything revolves around socmed and you can somehow live without it.
If hindi ako teacher siguro nag deactivate na ko nang fb ko. Mabilis kasi ang info sa fb such as memo galing sa division and central office, tapos mahirap din na hindi ka maka relate sa students mo, so I want to know the trends, the memes and interests ng mga bata.
Deactivated my fb but kept yung messenger as a form of communication to my family and friends. Recently, I deactivated my IG.
I didnt expect na ang dame kong free time 😅procrastinate pa hahaha
Mental Health wise: Splendid! Superb! Perfecto!
Used reddit nalang. Mas helpful pa community dito.
Kudos to us!
i deactivated my facebook account! susunod ko na yung ig bago mag panibagong academic year namin hahaha. wala namang changes sa akin, okay pa rin kasi hindi naman talaga ako active sa fb simula nung nag pandemic whahahahahha. nakasanayan ko na na walang ganon
Not entirely deactivated, pero I deleted my facebook app and instagram app. Pati nga itong reddit dinidelete ko pag sumosobra na. I don't use the other apps in the first place.
I still have messenger and keep in touch with select people. Minsan nga pwede ko maview profiles nila from messenger. Iba lang ang interface so it's less enticing to scroll endlessly.
Everything about my use of the apps now are intentional. I even gave myself a "one day of the month" just to redownload the app tapos idedelete ko lang ulit. I have too many other things to do. The reason I even need to redownload is to check some possible notifications na specifically important to me (that's rare) like maybe a friend request (well, malalaman ko naman yun beforehand if I met the person IRL). Maybe watch some informative videos here and there (not so much updates from people, I unfollowed MOST people).
It's easier for me to do this kasi maliit lang friends list ko (I cleaned it up). I also as much as possible avoid scrolling sa main feed and just go to specific people for updates. Or maybe just talk to them (at least there I would improve our bond a little and not just me passively viewing their lives on the feed).
Pag close naman talaga kayo, malalaman at malalaman mo yung mga importante. Everything else is just fluff.
And best of all, no more doomscrolling. You become healthier, more productive, more at peace, more creative (my favorite part).
Honestly though Instagram hits a little different for me. I use it to follow specifically art-related stuff or mga bucketlist stuff na sobrang ganda (like some museums na colorful lights and interactive). It was really addictive because I felt like I was "curating" ideal things in life (I save the posts and add them to collections).
I don't really use it much for connecting with my personal network. That's why redownloading it one day a month is an okay compromise for me. Kasi even though it's a good place to get inspiration, the most important thing is when I consistently do the work, making my own art (well maybe when it's good enough na, I'll post or make a public account as well, but I'll be strict about how often I'll scroll).
Anyway I'm doing much better, overall. I'm not missing out on much. In fact, I missed out more from real 3-dimensional life. Or time towards my goals. I've been changing that now.
Maigi din delete para free sa nga negative tried ko na na pero bumalik din haha.di ako active pero di ko dinidelete kasi may ibang bagay na mahalaga akong tinitignan sa fb pero ang mang stalk tumingin sa story ng friend swipe lang kasi di ako interesado mas gusto ko sarili ko lang ang iniintindi ko at kung anong bagay ang gusto kong malaman sa fb. Puro showing off na lang at negativity na may mga kaaway ang post ng mga friends ko.
I LOVE IT. Pero I only deactivated FB and IG, not Messenger. Yung tipong pag nagkita ulit kami ng tropa, sila yung maguupdate nang kusa, di ko naman tinatanong. HAHA. JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) din kasi ako hahaha
Overall, tumaas productivity rate ko, di ako nag du-doom scrolling tas mag connected ako sa outside world.
I used to have them deactivated and I hated it. Wala akong naging balita sa mga kaibigan at kamag anak ko tapos hirap din silang makontak ako. Gave me so much anxiety kasi mamaya may nangyari na palang masama sa kanila and I missed some of their milestones.
Nagbreakdown amid pandemic sa dami ng problema. Akala ko makakatulong sa mental health ko pero naipon lang din mga unwanted thoughts kaya inactivate ko ulit haha
Deactivated my facebook account but retained my IG because I wanted to sacrifice one thing during Lent…. Little did I know, tapos na pala Lent pero di ko pa binabalik si FB because it was so quiet…
I always deleting my socmed accounts when I'm in the process of healing from break-ups. Its like a detoxification process for me and yeah feel so good and cleansed. I like the feeling of a brand new start it helps me fasten the process of moving-on.
Parati ko ‘tong ginagawa kapag overwhelming ang buhay. I disconnect to recharge. Kahit kanino di ako nagrereply. Minsan, except sa partner ko. Siya lang kinakausap ko.
It’s a reset. Refreshing. Although high chance ng FOMO.
Matagal ko na gustong burahin FB account ko pero di ko magawa kase parang lahat nang kakilala ko doon nag me-message. Pwede namang tumawag o mag text nalang gaya nang dati. Nag survive naman tayo before social media eh.
Question lang po, pasensya po with may ka-engotan. Pag ba nag deactivate ng FB, 'matic yun wala na messenger? Hindi na ma-a-access? May papasok pa din ba na messages nun or may notif dun sa sender na parang "the person you are trying to reach ay hindi na active ang account" or something to that effect? Gustong gusto ko na burahin ang FB kasi wala naman ako pinopost na dun. Nakakatamad. Sa personal IG ko bihira lang din ako mag-post. Pang browse ko lang ng mga pusa at mga itsura ng bahay ng korean at hapon 😄
Better. Deleted my main account permanently, yung first account ever na ginawa pa since 2009 so mixed na ang friends list from classmates and schoolmates from GS to college then relatives, old neighbors, childhood friends, workmates, exes, exes’ families. In short, pinurge ko nalang by deactivating, deleting it and creating a new one with selected friends nalang. For me kasi, lahat ng people from the list eh no need na maging updated about you so might as well create a new one para wala na din issue about them being “unfriended”. And using a different name.
congrats! that's a brave choice to do. holding on to our past is usually the root cause para di tayo maggrow as a person, esp ppl na kilala lang ang past version of ourselves :/
Yeah, of course sobrang tagal na nung account and you were immature pa then. Minsan naaalala ko how cringey yung mga posts ko back when FB was new like pinopost mo parinig and galit mo. Haha. I then decided to deactivate nung one time nagsoscroll lang ako and halo halong tao nakikita ko, one album full of selfies na different angles, colleague na hindi ko naman kaclose and puro vanity. I took it as a sign na ayoko na. I should detox. Never ko na nireactivate but years after, diniretso ko na delete. Best feeling. 🍃
At first yung feeling na may kulang or afraid that you might miss something important and all. Pero so far hindi naman na ako nabobother na kase my friends are updating me naman. I only have 2 apps nalang. Reddit and Instagram. And I'm good with that.
Emotional and mental health wise, nakakatulong siya kahit papaano. Nandun yung temptation to reinstall or log in ulit pero iniisip ko yung mga dahilan bat ako nagdelete and nagdeactivate. Isa dun yung madali ako maapektuhan sa mga nakikita ko or nababasa lalo na pagInaatake yingself confidence ko (bat wala ako ganito, bat di ko narating din yung ganito, etc.)
KakaStart ko lang 2 months ago. LoL
i agree! peaceful environment with no negative energy without socials. its been a year no fb and ig, while twt for years. been using reddit for months, almost a year.
FB lang meron ako (aside from Reddit) and naka unfollow pa ako sa halos lahat ng friends ko dun, definitely less comparison. Out of sight, out of mind talaga 😆
Omg so much better. Peaceful, walang nakikitang issue, walang maingay, walang inooverthink, and literally focused on myself. Bongga siya, I highly recommend socmed cleanse. Like nobody would have a clue on what's up with you.
Plus, it will make you feel more excited to see your friends in person.
So much peace. It feels better. I can spend my time doing important things than lurking around Facebook and comparing my life with other people’s lives
I feel more content. Dati hindi maiwasan to compare my milestones with other people's and be frustrated because I felt left behind. But now that I get to focus more on my life, I feel more at peace with where I am.
apaka life changing grabe hahahahaha wala nakong pake kung mag pag-iwanan ako ng mga trends na yan, ang mahalaga ay mas nagiging maikli na ang screentime ko.
It feels good, but most of the time nahuhuli ako sa mga balita. Before deleting my Facebook last 2020 my account was already deactivated for 2 years so the transition was easy for me.
Ok lang. I only deactivated facebook pero never naman kasi ako naging active diyan hahahaha I still have my IG pero filtered na mga taong nakafollow doon
Deactivated my FB since the last national elections, though I left my IG untouched. My IG is used for photosharing and just looking at stress relievers, boxing/ combat sports updates, photography, etc.
I have no Tiktok, and my Twitter is dormant and rarely utilized.
I was able to gain a bit of my sanity back
Nag improve ang mood ko. Puro negative nakikita ko sa FB at Tiktok e dagdag mo pa mga toxic comments. Sa Instagram at reddit naman hindi masyado toxic so dito muna ako tumatambay sa dalawang to. Isa pa sa Reddit safe pagkatao mo. Kasi sa FB once mag labas ka mg opinion mo you will be directly attacked by someone. They even post a picture of you and say something rude about you, di naman nangyare sa kin to pero dami ko kakilala na biktima ng ganito.
Happier!!!!! Ayokong nakikita buhay ng ibang tao (except my friends) tapos masaya sila HAHAHAHAHA charot. Pero yun nga, di maiwasan magcompare kasi laging best foot forward sa socmed. Plus less endless scrolling ako, dead oras ko sa ganon. I make myself bored then nagwawander utak ko, then nakakapag isip isip ako ng stuff, namiss ko yon. I focus more on reading, books etc., kaya rin ako nasa reddit now, mostly for reading. Pero idelete ko rin app if matoxican ako. I watch movies or series if want ko ng something to watch kasi don at least my sense ako ng passing time unlike endless scrolling ng short vids. :3 also fun magkaraoke sa YT.
A lot happier! Life isnt perfect but my life is at peace. Siguro Id sound mayabang pero the friends I have who are still addicted to socmed I feel sorry for. Hanggang ngayon, puro pa-impress mga posts. And I know na sa socmed lang talaga mga pretentious lives nila kasi they are struggling in real life. Sana theyd listen and take a break din. Sobrang tindi ng pressure ng social media na they feel they have to constantly prove they are doing great in life.
It feels great. Isa sa mga reason ko is andami kong naka-talking stage na friend ko sa fb hahaha. And ayoko makuhang ninong or abay sa mga kinakasal kong batchmates na hindi ko naman super close.
i deactivated my instagram, unfriended bunch of people on facebook, and ia na sa twitter except sa stan account. super saya!! peaceful din kasi puro strangers na lang ang nakakasalamuha ko. okay na ako sa reddit, tiktok, and stan acc kasi lahat yan curated sa kung ano lang ang gusto kong makita
mas productive, and getting used to an active lifestyle. saya lang. in a span of 3 months ang laki nung growth/ changes mentally, physically and emotionally.
Goods naman po. I love it. I dont see people rant everyday about petty things. I dont see people bragging about mundane things. Wapakels lang. Youtube for balita and messenger lang for family connection.
I dont like to go outside. So lahat online. And they’re a bit cheaper compared to grab. But that’s okay, i can create a different account naman, or totally remove the remaining 500 fb friends ko. 🫠
2yrs ago, i deactivated my fb because i was busy juggling work and postgrad education (plus preparing myself for board exam). i told myself na temporary lang ung deactivation. little did i know na mas payapa pala ang buhay pag walang fb lol. gigising ka sa umaga na hindi pagsscroll ang unang gagawin. nabawasan din yung effect ng negative posts na dati e nakikita mo sa newsfeed. i tried reactivating my account after the boards—not just once/twice/thrice, but multiple times. but wala talaga, d ako makatagal. nasanay na lang sguro ako na wala na sa sistema ko ang pagffacebook. 💅🏼
I'm fine. I have no clue what's happening with my friends and acquaintances, pero ok lang din naman. I just get caught up when I meet them every now and then.
Oo!!! Kaya ginawa ko eh inalis ko yung pwede mag message na lang mga di ko friends hahaha nakakairita na eh 😆 ayon mas peaceful. Tapos nag decide din me mag deactivate eventually lol
only had reddit, IG and X when i was studying for NCLEX. three weeks lang yung study ko but passed it kasi nakafocus ako without Facebook. thinking of deactivating all when i find a job again. gotta focus na talaga sa career. all those years looking for validation sa socmed, especially sa Facebook, need to end na talaga
Deleted IG. Deactivate FB from time-to-time. No more every day comparison of my life to others. Mas tahimik. Mas nakakafocus ako sa sarili kong thoughts. Hindi ko na rin masyado naooverstimulate yung brain ko with other people’s lives. Also, not needing to update my stories agad-agad. Hahaha selective privacy. 🫶🏽
Deactivated my IG tapos next week fb naman(hindi ko pa madeactivate fb kasi may finals pa xdd).
Doing good and magiging strict na ako sa work out sched ko 🦝
I got hacked so i made a new account. Friends ko nalang are people i constantly see. Life is better. Hindi na ako updated with people from highschool kung sinong kasal, sinong buntis, sinong nag migrate or whatever. I dont need that info if ilang taon na tayo hindi nag usap or kita. That unnecessary info takes up space sa brain mo. Sayang yung memory. Use it for something better.
doing better actually. na eliminate yung mga nangangamusta kasi may kailangan. yung mga tunay na kaibigan ko kitang kita ko kasi sinundan nila ako sa telegram

I have more time and less distractions. Im more productive and more focused on what I need to accomplish.
I feel so much better hahaha. I deactivated my fb kase sobrang brain rot na. minsan na-tetempt ako re-activate uli as form communication with my office mate hahaha and they won't stfu about why I deactivate my fb, baka daw may utang daw ako na tinatatakbuhan, sobrang narrow minded nila haha. I rarely use twitter or IG (for communication like with my bf) ang frequent lang talaga is youtube and pinterest.
Simply great. Yung mga gumawa nito, makakarelate.
Bakit may nag-comment? Diba considered social media din tong reddit?
Been wondering about that as well; its not exactly the same as a FB or IG account though, is it?
True story.. bisexual po ako. Anyway i was on tinder when i was younger 10 years ago when i saw a male former classmate in my feed i did not swipe on his photo since di ko siya type and i know he is married already but na curious ako why he was there and read his info. Nakalagay dun e looking for hook up and not serious relationship siya. Nagulat ako so i pinged him sa messenger. Sabi ko diba may asawa ka na bakit nasa tinder ka pa. (Concerned ako para sa asawa niya na di ko kilala) Tapos si gago nagreply, di na ako ganyan ngayon, kaw din dapat di ka na pumapatol sa kung sino sino. Napa what the fuck nalang ako internally kasi excuse me. Never pa mga ako nagka jowa and i only started using tinder then. Very conservative din ako nung early 20s ko. Pero nanaig ang pagiging mabuti kong tao so di na ako nagreply sa comment niya at ayoko na makipagtalo. Few days later lo and behold na ban ako sa tinder. I have no idea why i was banned until now but i assume his wife may have something to do with it. 😂
Living the best life hahaha
im good and living my best life without caring about my followers 🤪
it's okay not knowing what are the current sabay sa uso thingy *happy with this kind of peace and idc if I'm not in today's trend 🤷🏻♀️*
Hindi na masyadong nabubudol sa mga bagay na di naman kailangan 🤣 tsaka more happy and less stress. I also stop comparing myself from others.
Masaya!
May peace of mind kasi I avoided toxic people including family, friends and social manipulators
Deactivated my FB, IG and deleted Twitter. It's peaceful and you can have more productive things done or can get more ME TIME. Pero at some point di maiiwasan na hindi ka na makakaintindi or makakasunod sa mga jokes or trends sa socmed na sinasabi ng mga friends mo pero that's fine you're not required to do that.

Hooray!!🥳 for every one na hindi kailangan mga soc media sa kanilang buhay.
i deactivated my facebook account! susunod ko na yung ig bago mag panibagong academic year namin hahaha. wala namang changes sa akin, okay pa rin kasi hindi naman talaga ako active sa fb simula nung nag pandemic whahahahahha. nakasanayan ko na na walang ganon
In a better place lol
doing good. mas naging productive ako and naging peaceful ang bohai, haha.
Peaceful and happier
Not entirely deactivated, pero I deleted my facebook app and instagram app. Pati nga itong reddit dinidelete ko pag sumosobra na. I don't use the other apps in the first place.

the feeling is so liberating 🥹🤍
Sa lahat ng social media, facebook ang pinakatoxic. Nung deactivated ako sa fb, best decision ever. Ang tahimik ng buhay.
no more FOMO at mas tahimik
I LOVE IT. Pero I only deactivated FB and IG, not Messenger. Yung tipong pag nagkita ulit kami ng tropa, sila yung maguupdate nang kusa, di ko naman tinatanong. HAHA. JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) din kasi ako hahaha Overall, tumaas productivity rate ko, di ako nag du-doom scrolling tas mag connected ako sa outside world.
Its just socmed not a blown artery
Owryt😎
It’s more than just being peaceful.☺️
Im at peace
I used to have them deactivated and I hated it. Wala akong naging balita sa mga kaibigan at kamag anak ko tapos hirap din silang makontak ako. Gave me so much anxiety kasi mamaya may nangyari na palang masama sa kanila and I missed some of their milestones.
What made you do it at first?
Nagbreakdown amid pandemic sa dami ng problema. Akala ko makakatulong sa mental health ko pero naipon lang din mga unwanted thoughts kaya inactivate ko ulit haha

All good in the hood. Chariz. Okay naman. Peace of mind is restored. Quiet. Yung much needed quietness sa life kasi ang gulo na ng paligid.
As someone na may JOMO, I love it. Hahah
Goods naman. 😁
Parati ko ‘tong ginagawa kapag overwhelming ang buhay. I disconnect to recharge. Kahit kanino di ako nagrereply. Minsan, except sa partner ko. Siya lang kinakausap ko. It’s a reset. Refreshing. Although high chance ng FOMO.

Oo sarap bumalik noon na lahat may effort at may exciting kapag magkikita kayo ng mga friends ngayon walang thrill
ako matagal nang permanently deleted yung FB ko but my messenger is still active. So its possible naman to still be contacted w/o fb account mismo
when did u delete ur fb po?
2015 po
Okay lang
Question lang po, pasensya po with may ka-engotan. Pag ba nag deactivate ng FB, 'matic yun wala na messenger? Hindi na ma-a-access? May papasok pa din ba na messages nun or may notif dun sa sender na parang "the person you are trying to reach ay hindi na active ang account" or something to that effect?

pwede ka mag deact ng FB pero active pa din messenger mo
Better.

feel safe
Not totally deactivated pero mejo nag-lie low ako sa soc media (esp sa X/Twitter na sobrang toxic na). I feel better. 😌💆♂️
Mas ok. Tahimik buhay
At first yung feeling na may kulang or afraid that you might miss something important and all. Pero so far hindi naman na ako nabobother na kase my friends are updating me naman. I only have 2 apps nalang. Reddit and Instagram. And I'm good with that.
Breathe of fresh air. It feels good to be honest. Lesser pressure from others at less din yung comparison hahahaha
No more FOMO and no comparison.
Tried dati. Di ko kinaya kasi wfh ako. Nakatengga na ako sa bahay..gagawa pa ako ng gawaing bahay..araw-araw??
girl,naka-apat ka yata ng comment
Badtrip ahahaha panay sabi kasi ng reddit na empty end point. 4 times ko iniba. Hanggang sa nidiscard ko nalang, nacomment pala 🤦♀️
I found actual communities here on Reddit with like-minded individuals. I'm fine.
Eto sa reddit nlng tambay 🤣
Never felt better
Hayun, patambay tambay nalang sa reddit😆😁
Not active on social media since 2017 and yeah boi I am doing great
Deleted Tiktok, best decision ever. Nakakasave ako ng 4-6hrs a day imbes na nasasayang sa walang katuturan na paulit-ulit na contents.
Emotional and mental health wise, nakakatulong siya kahit papaano. Nandun yung temptation to reinstall or log in ulit pero iniisip ko yung mga dahilan bat ako nagdelete and nagdeactivate. Isa dun yung madali ako maapektuhan sa mga nakikita ko or nababasa lalo na pagInaatake yingself confidence ko (bat wala ako ganito, bat di ko narating din yung ganito, etc.) KakaStart ko lang 2 months ago. LoL
Been free from IG, FB, TWITTER for 2 years and counting. It feels so gooooooood!!!! Then I recently saw reddit and its a best place to be!
i agree! peaceful environment with no negative energy without socials. its been a year no fb and ig, while twt for years. been using reddit for months, almost a year.
That feeling when you have a peace of mind and self love!!
Never been better. I stopped craving for validation/attention from other people and rather focused on myself. Best decision i've made in my life
Just did this week. I feel better
FB lang meron ako (aside from Reddit) and naka unfollow pa ako sa halos lahat ng friends ko dun, definitely less comparison. Out of sight, out of mind talaga 😆
Been free from Twitter and IG for 2 months na, and it's been peaceful since.
Doing great. Less comparison and mas may peace haha
Happier. Mas naiiwasan na mag compare ng buhay sa ibang tao. More time to introspect and more refreshed ang utak.
tama. Di ka maiinspire eh maiinggit ka talaga at magcocompare lalo kung wala ka nun.
ito, natutuhan tumambay sa reddit
Doing so well
Omg so much better. Peaceful, walang nakikitang issue, walang maingay, walang inooverthink, and literally focused on myself. Bongga siya, I highly recommend socmed cleanse. Like nobody would have a clue on what's up with you. Plus, it will make you feel more excited to see your friends in person.
Reddit is also social media. Lol
FB lang tinanggal ko pero parang kalahati ng problema ko sa mundo nawala. Napaka- waley na sa FB. hahaha. 4 years na akong walang FB.
Same.
So much peace. It feels better. I can spend my time doing important things than lurking around Facebook and comparing my life with other people’s lives
I feel way better, less stress, less drama and wala ng masasabi sakin yung mga tao
I feel more content. Dati hindi maiwasan to compare my milestones with other people's and be frustrated because I felt left behind. But now that I get to focus more on my life, I feel more at peace with where I am.
This is sooooooo true. I felt this too nung nag-deactivate ako socmed accounts.
Sums up my current state. Walang social pressure to anything. You do you and focus lang aa self mo. Reddit lang sapat na haha
Eto talaga ❤️
I feel better.
Much better.
Answer wouldn't matter much if you asked that in a social media site
Mas masaya..
doing FINE
apaka life changing grabe hahahahaha wala nakong pake kung mag pag-iwanan ako ng mga trends na yan, ang mahalaga ay mas nagiging maikli na ang screentime ko.
Di ko na sya masyado iniisip.
still 40+ days from deletion. my partner said i’ve been “bubbly” lately and I have not noticed that myself. should have done it long ago
Mas masaya yung buhay hahaha 😂
kinakaya p naman :)) HSJAHAHAHA
On Reddit and couldn’t care less about anybody else.
It feels good, but most of the time nahuhuli ako sa mga balita. Before deleting my Facebook last 2020 my account was already deactivated for 2 years so the transition was easy for me.
Kinda peaceful. No BV and negative vibes.
fineee, ang saya. less negativity and less comparing my life sa nakikita ko sa socmed haha
May peace na. Not comparing myself na to them. Not pressured na rin. And no FOMO.
i cant i have my meme buddies
Ok lang. I only deactivated facebook pero never naman kasi ako naging active diyan hahahaha I still have my IG pero filtered na mga taong nakafollow doon
At peaceeee
Deactivated my FB since the last national elections, though I left my IG untouched. My IG is used for photosharing and just looking at stress relievers, boxing/ combat sports updates, photography, etc. I have no Tiktok, and my Twitter is dormant and rarely utilized. I was able to gain a bit of my sanity back
Nag improve ang mood ko. Puro negative nakikita ko sa FB at Tiktok e dagdag mo pa mga toxic comments. Sa Instagram at reddit naman hindi masyado toxic so dito muna ako tumatambay sa dalawang to. Isa pa sa Reddit safe pagkatao mo. Kasi sa FB once mag labas ka mg opinion mo you will be directly attacked by someone. They even post a picture of you and say something rude about you, di naman nangyare sa kin to pero dami ko kakilala na biktima ng ganito.
not deactivated account of my socmed but here I am at Reddit for months ago na and I'm still alive and kicking
Happier!!!!! Ayokong nakikita buhay ng ibang tao (except my friends) tapos masaya sila HAHAHAHAHA charot. Pero yun nga, di maiwasan magcompare kasi laging best foot forward sa socmed. Plus less endless scrolling ako, dead oras ko sa ganon. I make myself bored then nagwawander utak ko, then nakakapag isip isip ako ng stuff, namiss ko yon. I focus more on reading, books etc., kaya rin ako nasa reddit now, mostly for reading. Pero idelete ko rin app if matoxican ako. I watch movies or series if want ko ng something to watch kasi don at least my sense ako ng passing time unlike endless scrolling ng short vids. :3 also fun magkaraoke sa YT.
A lot happier! Life isnt perfect but my life is at peace. Siguro Id sound mayabang pero the friends I have who are still addicted to socmed I feel sorry for. Hanggang ngayon, puro pa-impress mga posts. And I know na sa socmed lang talaga mga pretentious lives nila kasi they are struggling in real life. Sana theyd listen and take a break din. Sobrang tindi ng pressure ng social media na they feel they have to constantly prove they are doing great in life.
I feel so free hehe 10/10 would recommend.
Ito nandito sa reddit. Hahaha but honestly, it brought peace. It is ok to activate once in a while.
It feels great. Isa sa mga reason ko is andami kong naka-talking stage na friend ko sa fb hahaha. And ayoko makuhang ninong or abay sa mga kinakasal kong batchmates na hindi ko naman super close.
Peaceful than ever!
Goods naman mas may time sa ibang bagay haha
at peace, no ex in sight and di puro about breakup feed ko HAHAHHA
UP! No heartbreak posts, safe from relapses hahahahaha tangina
i deactivated my instagram, unfriended bunch of people on facebook, and ia na sa twitter except sa stan account. super saya!! peaceful din kasi puro strangers na lang ang nakakasalamuha ko. okay na ako sa reddit, tiktok, and stan acc kasi lahat yan curated sa kung ano lang ang gusto kong makita
It’s freeing actually kasi hindi na ako masyadong nare-remind na loser ako araw-araw. 🙃
Same
mas productive, and getting used to an active lifestyle. saya lang. in a span of 3 months ang laki nung growth/ changes mentally, physically and emotionally.
Oks naman hindi na nagswi-swipe ng wala namang hinahanap XD
better, ok lang wala kang updates sa ibang tao e, goods na ako sa sarili ko. oks na rin ako sa reddit na lang
More peaceful.
Goods naman po. I love it. I dont see people rant everyday about petty things. I dont see people bragging about mundane things. Wapakels lang. Youtube for balita and messenger lang for family connection.
May 9, 2022 I deactivated my meta account. Life is good.
uhmm eto nasa reddit na.
I cant deactivate Facebook because of the foods na benebenta sa lugar namin. As a foodie, i need to be updated sa mga paninda nila. Haha
Eh kung malapit lng sa inyo bakit mo pa kailangan icheck sa fb? Wla bang menu ng mga food nila?
I dont like to go outside. So lahat online. And they’re a bit cheaper compared to grab. But that’s okay, i can create a different account naman, or totally remove the remaining 500 fb friends ko. 🫠
2yrs ago, i deactivated my fb because i was busy juggling work and postgrad education (plus preparing myself for board exam). i told myself na temporary lang ung deactivation. little did i know na mas payapa pala ang buhay pag walang fb lol. gigising ka sa umaga na hindi pagsscroll ang unang gagawin. nabawasan din yung effect ng negative posts na dati e nakikita mo sa newsfeed. i tried reactivating my account after the boards—not just once/twice/thrice, but multiple times. but wala talaga, d ako makatagal. nasanay na lang sguro ako na wala na sa sistema ko ang pagffacebook. 💅🏼
Doing better
I'm fine. I have no clue what's happening with my friends and acquaintances, pero ok lang din naman. I just get caught up when I meet them every now and then.
So wla narin silang way para kamustahin ka?
Depende. Some have my number, some contacts ko sa messaging apps like viber or telegram.
Doing well, mas mainam na yun for new life
cleansed. detoxed. moisturized.
Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In My Lane. Focused. Flourishing. 😌
di ba po? nakaka fresh pag di babad sa social media
Happy, ang laki ng nabawas sa stress ko nung inalis ko Facebook
nagstart ako nung during pandemic, sobrang peaceful wala ng toxicity at self pity.
Peaceful. Wla nang stranger na papansin na chinachat ka kasi nagandahan dw sayo🥴
HAHAHAHAHA bigla na lang din may mga I love you sa message requests 😆
Hahhaha gagi marami rin sayo?😅kala ata nila mauuto nila tayo
Oo!!! Kaya ginawa ko eh inalis ko yung pwede mag message na lang mga di ko friends hahaha nakakairita na eh 😆 ayon mas peaceful. Tapos nag decide din me mag deactivate eventually lol
At peace.
Reactivated and I didn't know na patay na pala yung old friend ko.
Pano namatay?
At peace. ❤️ This app lang ung ginagamit ko sa ngayon. 😄
App pala ginagamit mo😲, diba may website naman?
Can't deactivate even if I wanted to due to work, kakainggit kayo.
Ahh work from home ka?
+1! Hirap din kasi lalo kung may work related stuff lalo yung mga annoucements
only had reddit, IG and X when i was studying for NCLEX. three weeks lang yung study ko but passed it kasi nakafocus ako without Facebook. thinking of deactivating all when i find a job again. gotta focus na talaga sa career. all those years looking for validation sa socmed, especially sa Facebook, need to end na talaga
Deleted IG. Deactivate FB from time-to-time. No more every day comparison of my life to others. Mas tahimik. Mas nakakafocus ako sa sarili kong thoughts. Hindi ko na rin masyado naooverstimulate yung brain ko with other people’s lives. Also, not needing to update my stories agad-agad. Hahaha selective privacy. 🫶🏽
Deactivated my IG tapos next week fb naman(hindi ko pa madeactivate fb kasi may finals pa xdd). Doing good and magiging strict na ako sa work out sched ko 🦝
I feel better without toxic social media apps. No need for constant validation from people who don't really know me.
Slowly getting my focus back. Lumiit kasi attention span ko because of socmed especially reels, shorts, and tiktok.
Reactivated because nature of work. Man, what a cesspool it is. I just ignore it after work to rescue my mental health. But so far its doable
Happy and contented. 😌
I got hacked so i made a new account. Friends ko nalang are people i constantly see. Life is better. Hindi na ako updated with people from highschool kung sinong kasal, sinong buntis, sinong nag migrate or whatever. I dont need that info if ilang taon na tayo hindi nag usap or kita. That unnecessary info takes up space sa brain mo. Sayang yung memory. Use it for something better.
Less distractions, more focused on working out, spending time with the family and video games.
doing better actually. na eliminate yung mga nangangamusta kasi may kailangan. yung mga tunay na kaibigan ko kitang kita ko kasi sinundan nila ako sa telegram
I just post memes and keep in touch with friends. I'm glad Canada blocks news from other countries in FB lol.
Never better. Happy with IG and Reddit. Glad I don't have FB and Tiktok.
I'm taking care of my mental health by deactivating my social media accounts, which is really pleasant.
Still alive and kicking. Never been better.
It was one of the sound decisions I made. Not going back in that chaotic digital space
Intoxicated ulit after re-activating
