I already quit Instagram and Snapchat a while back and just starting to quit YouTube… It’s a challenge at first but it helps avoiding all possible triggers and keeping my streak as clean as possible… Join me I think I’m the only one doing this…

It would take quite a bit of preparation. Make sure there are people who will let you know of important events via text or e-mail. And of course that everyone knows to only contact you through these means. Leave reminders of this on your social media profiles before hand so people can see that you are not going to respond through social media.

All that aside I think it is an amazing thing to do and I totally support you. I assume Rewire Companion is included in social media for you?

Yeah thanks for the advice mate rewire companions is included too sadly.

This is motivating! If I may ask how long was it?

I think it’s been more than three months that i forgot about Facebook, Instagram and everything else … I do not miss any of it, to speak the truth hehe.

I feel otherwise man. Technology itself is not bad, it’s the abuse of technology that is the reason we suffer. I am taking my own example, previously I was addicted to porn sites, I quit those, then I quit Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram. I quit YouTube for good. I even quitted using android phone for about 6 months, thought I might be able to get over my addictions. I was completely wrong. I sat in my room completely distracted, daydreaming, then I realized that the problem is with me, not the technology. If we use technology properly we can only move in front, save our time, gain information. We just have to practice control, and increase our will power that will be enough.

At times I was even addicted to rewire companion. Every now and then I would check my post whether it got likes or if someone commented on it. I am practicing balance. I believe that is the key. Except porn sites, I don’t believe any thing is bad.

completely agree with you.
if we have a problem within our mind and get addicted to something we probably get addicted to everything else too.

i personally would never go without youtube. i use it for studying certain topics, to play music while studying even to get news (like last week tonight or ted talks).

we have to learn to use the tools we got.

Yeah bro even i completed 30 day nofap today. And I had deleted all the social media , FB, insta , from the day 1 it feels really great to live a real life. No social anxiety, no urges, no pmo, just real life. Life Will be so amazing . You will be focused towards your goals and you’ll be having so much time. It’s amazing. And life will be filled with positivity.
