mylahxandermom's Journal, 22 March 2018

For a school assignment I have to give up something for 72 hours. I figured I’ve done pretty good with giving up foods and changing food habits. I think I need to try three days off Facebook. I haven’t ever done a “social media cleanse.” I’m giving up Facebook because it seems to be my biggest time suck. I’m afraid that I will want to eat when I used to go on Facebook. Going to try house hunting and exercising in that time instead. Or playing with the kids.

I think social media is as addictive as food. I;m in week two, going on three where I gave up FB for an indeterminate time. I find that I now waste it on here. Good luck house hunting.

Thank you. I’m gonna try not to be in here too often. Yes social media can be addictive.

I don't have a Facebook account, but I do like the social media aspect of FS, very supportive with only the occasional troll, lol

Great Idea! Not only are you helping yourself, but your educating and influencing your kids on how to best manage social media....Its good to get out from time to time and inspire the kids to play outside as opposed to staying in and playing electronics (in any capacity). All to often we fall into the social media trap, kids r especially vulnerable as this is the primary way of communicating now days. Way to break the cycle !!!

I quit FB awhile ago. It's very freeing. Way too much negativity. I know I'm better off without it.

Using the time to spend time with your kids or your husband instead sounds like a brilliant thing! 🙋🏻 Social media is great when it’s on OUR timetable. NOT when it overtakes our lives. 🤦🏻‍♀️lol

I ended up deciding to give up all social media for the three days. But now I feel like I’m on them too much. Yet tonight my son did a concert and the song was for grandparents day. I’m glad that technology gives us a a way to share those moments across the country.

I had around 500 FB friends and over the past 2 yrs. I have unfriended around 450. It has been refreshing not to see all the drama taking place in friend's lives. 50 FB friends now and they are ONLY my best friends. My ride or dies. It has been relieving to limit my time to FB.
