Social Media

It has been a rough beginning in 2025 for everyone. I sometimes talk about politics and whatever this crazy year has us going. It will be challenging, especially since we have social media.

Social media is for communication, creating content, and getting information. It has also become a way of our lives that could make it worse for us by being bullied, politics that has false information, and many other things. I have been on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok plus YouTube.

All those media platforms could make you feel very overstimulated and could be mentally consuming. Some social media are not like that because you could create content that is positive or spread false information that could scare you. I know this because it just takes you to rabbit holes, and it wasn’t good for me, especially for those who like to do conspiracy theories.

My biggest tip is to set a time limit for social media, for instance, 30 minutes a day, go for a walk, and pick a hobby. I watch YouTube more than anything to learn something new or find something interesting to watch. YouTube is an alternative to learning new hobbies that don’t cost money. Also, go for a walk and do what you have always wanted to do, like travel.
