After everything that happened to me in the past 2 years, I wanted to touch on an important subject. Social media isn't evil by itself, but it's fake and we need to open our eyes and realize that. The lives people share on social media, don't reflect the reality they live in. After the privacy crisis in the past year, Mark Zuckerberg had to speak in front of congress.
Social media effects on your mental health are scary and we need to do something about it.

Funny how it's called 'social' media but it actually makes us anti-social😧
Truth 🙌🏻
True😌
🤣🤣🤣
I think it’s the way we use is wrong
Real-life social is as fake as that in Facebook.
I'm not in any any social media except UA-cam. But sadly I spend too much time on it
Put notifications off = more relaxing
Are you not even making use of whatsapp??
@@expatlyfe ever since the status feature came in what's app..it has also turned into a shit
yeah, it's me
Me too exactly. And for me it's mostly the music that keeps me coming back; yet I always seem to get caught up in the political bull crap
i deleted facebook and im using Twitter its less addictive and im learning a lot of things its way better than facebook
I’m so sick of living in this fake generation
Same. It’s all artificial, people are pure stupid, and no one knows shit anymore because we just gaze at technology 24/7. It’s intoxicating and exhausting
@@cheechee6473 Right! They are so attached to this fake virtual reality that just causes more anxiety and depression
Plus the people who uses TikTok
Don't say so... the best generation of humanity belongs to the period we are living, at the same time this also can be the period in history in which worst generation of humanity will emerge.
Facts
I deleted my Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat too a week before I came across this video.. Honestly I've never been happy like how I've been now for a week.

I had my phone broken 4 weeks ago. And first few days were boring like a hell, i felt like i'm not being communicated with people because of not using social media. But now i understand that real communcation is not social media. And i really have less depression than i was using social media. Social media is such a horrible for some teenagers. It makes teenagers feel like they are going less than their actual age

I wanna say UA-cam helped me with my depression, anxiety and panic attacks. Its not all bad. UA-cam has some educational videos as well.
Same here .... I was not depressed but I was #introvert Nd not inspired
Moderation
Yeah but some.... And most people choose to watch stupid nonsense entertainment stuff... Be very aware what you watch be very aware what you feed in your mind...
yt is my home.
anything for a break from social media
@Kylo Ren Doyle
You realize how pointless Facebook is if you don’t even know 90% of the people on your friendlist...
Why I don't have Facebook! If u know me then u can call me!!!! Period
That's not the main thing. Its about us, our brain and nature. What it will slowly do and already did to society. If you get to know our nature, our brain, social media, smartphones and society, connecting those things together is scary.
I don't know only 2 people on my FB
What if I know 100% of the people in my friends list?
@The Most Interesting Man On UA-cam I... Don't have a sim card-
Social media is bad bad bad, of course for adults, even children, it's like drugs.
@Gorrito Azul True but it doesn't really work like the others.
Then stop comment on youtube because youtube is also a social media
@@muhammadnaufalavila5022 Thus, UA-cam is not too common addicted media
social media is the reason why this generation is the worst ever btw. could write a book about it.
@yousuf ahmed even if it is no one ever committed social watching UA-cam video and also UA-cam can be a better school than our original school
I had deleted all socials 2 months ago and trust me,I have never been so happier and satisfied before ..
I was a person with sooo much anxiety and all my anxiety just got vanished after it.
Everybody is so busy checking out what's happening on social media, they are missing out to have a real life
Same with me, i’m 18 years old and i didn’t use it my whole life! Social Media is just destroying humanity of originality and life!

Open your eyes teens our duty is to save us and our future generations from this poison
It's kinda funny that when me and my friends hang out, we don't touch our phones.
But when our parents see us, they immediately ask to take our pictures so they can post it on Facebook.
This is coming from a teen who has no Tik Tok, Snapchat, or Twitter

I want to delete all these media apps and stay with family. But online education cause me to delay that mission.
I feel like I wasted a year being on social media Doing nothing and it feels horrible 😭
i have solution 😉
@@rajan1357 huh
Me too😑
Me too especially this year.i could have learned so much
We all are doing the same but for many years. Only some have the courage to limit social media in daily life
I do agree that when I am looking people on Instagram, everyone seems to have a wonderful and perfect life. Also, I think that it is true that people tend to value their phone and social media more than the real life interaction.
An interesting video on Social Media ua-cam.com/video/IgmxbkyZVC4/v-deo.html
I could not agree more. Ditch social media and watch how much better your life gets and how much better you feel about yourself. I am amazed at how much happier I am now that I no longer use any of this crap. It's just pure soul-sucking evil.
sharing my personal experience- deleted all my social media accounts last september, it turned out to be the best decision i have taken in my life. i was a well-performing college student, but i dealt with anxiety, panic attacks, FOMO, low self-esteem, lack of concentration, and generally felt low most of the time. social media used to numb my brain, provide me escape from reality. writing this after completing 100 days without social media - i am more satisfied with my life, have healthier relationship with my friends (lost a great deal of online 'friends', but i do not care about them anyways now) and family, i live in the present, doing better in studies, can focus more, have better sleep, am also writing in newspapers and websites, enjoy the sunrise or sunsets, enjoying good meals without having to worry what others will think. that decision has turned and changed my life for so much better!
Good
@Nour’s world I honestly did, I felt someone very close to me is missing from my life. This lasted for about 7 days maybe. But as time passed by, I started seeing the benefits of a healthier life, now when I look back it was all worth.
You made my day 💞
wow!!!
Did you also quit youtube?
If so, how long does it take to quit and what tips would you give someone, who is addicted to it?
Luckily I'm not addicted to social media. I'm scared of sharing my life with everyone.
Me2
Mee also
WHY NOT READ, QUESTION A BRAIN A DAY LIKE I DO WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE OF "HUMAN" AND "HUMANE" what are parents doing to educate their children's brains and themselves to stop BLAMING. I USE SOCIAL MEDIA TO READ, HEAR QUESSTION WORDS???? and use face book as a God sent tool.
you are addicted your just spewing bullshit youtube is also social media funny everyone gives youtube a pass because youtube who's owned by google are the good guys the hero's thats funny lol
Same!!!
A private life is a happy life. I used to think that was nuts but this really is a true statement. I am so much more content going forward rather than looking around at others on Facebook and feeling whatever. I never thought I would give up Facebook because it was like it gave me a false sense of accomplishment and happiness. I'm glad I don't have it anymore. I'm ashamed at what I used to share because I am not tlreally an open book kind of person yet fb made me be that way on there. I don't miss it. I don't want to know other peoples business.
It's shocking how people only share their perfect highlights, but it's even more shocking when people fake a lot of things and portray a different reality instead. I know a lot of people in my life who share a completely fake image on social media and it's just really sad as it doesn't help them much, but it also sells an illusion to others. An example that hits home is a friend who has very abusive parents and a careless partner but does not shy away from posting stuff that glorifies them constantly.
sometimes i walk out, no shave, no shower, worst shirt, and love people's reactions! who cares...
@@ronlentjes2739facts everybody is 🐑 🐏
During this quarantine i've spent most of my time watching videos of bloggers and beautiful models posting how their lives were before corona. I started comparing myself to them and realized how shitty and boring my life is. I will delete every social media app and start focusing on myself and on my journey in life
How are you feeling since quitting social media? Focus on YOU💪 Enjoy your life! I hope that all is well. There is so much freedom from being off social media(as is typing this...on social media)
You will see, and you will FEEL so much better in your life being away from it all. You do YOU. Be safe out there.
Do it !
I feel lost and confused and I don't know what I'm doing in my life because of social media
I'll do the same too because it's like I'm loosing my mind and to be honest before social media I wasn't a person who trouble with depression it's since I went in social media I started developing sadness watching sad stuff and seeing people been kill and it's really affecting my mental health to be honest

Nope, it's just you. Just quit twitter and Instagram already.

I don’t have any social media accounts other than youtube, quora, whatsapp. Best decision😊
The only social media I'm most addicted to is UA-cam and the fact that I've been on it for almost everyday, scrolling down and reading the comment section and once I'm addicted to it, it's gonna be very difficult for me to stop using it
Needed this….Thank you
This is a very big problem and everyone knows it.
They've only listed the harms of social media. But actually it also has positive effects which outweight the negative ones. Look it up. There were done several meta analysis on this topic. In summary it rather turns out to have a slightly positive overall (pros & cons) impact on humans so far according to the research.
A scary comment really.
Phillip Crook Well, don't be scared 🙏😌💕
Problem is people like you

You are right. Social media has its disadvantages and to be a more happier person, it's important to be mindful of how we use it
we shouldn't use them at all.

But youtube taught me more than the school. UA-cam can actually teach many things. Facebook is only good for business when you have something to sell online not for a hobby.
Artificial Intelligence this is not true. UA-cam did not teach you how to read or write in this comment section. UA-cam did not teach you the majority of what you’ve learned about daily math you utilize without even realizing it. UA-cam may have taught you about many random aspects but it did not teach you about the tools you utilize on a daily basis
@@kylecody4642 im not saying i didn't learn anything in school. Especially in elementary, it taught me a lot on how to read, write and how to do maths that i use in daily basis and im really thankful for my elementary lifr. But when i reach high school. I slowly realize that im learning nonsense academic shits. Then, i start using youtube. It teaches me many things on how to save money, cook, difference about credit and debit card and how to use them, how to make money online, stock markets, how to conquer fear, anxiety, and depression, kinds of herbal medicines and their uses, and how to repair ceiling fan and many other things.

This is a great clip that lets us know the negative effects of social media. But on the other hand if we can use it properly, it won’t be able to hurt us
Lots of people I know would rather use social media to communicate with another person than picking up the god damn phone and calling 😂
Social media gave me depression, anxiety , panic attack and more...
Especially instagram..
Thank you so much!
Instagram is the worst. I quit fb and Instagram and got my life back
For me , Instagram = hell. I said the same thing to my online Insta friends then I deleted the app.

UA-cam Short As Well. I Hope UA-cam Can Make Short In Different Different App. It's Very Distracting When I Want To Search Something And Short Is On My Homepage I Can't Focus On That. Fortunately Google Is The Only Platfrom That Can Make Everyone Smart & Happy
Watch UA-cam videos instead, it reduces anxiety and depression
Social media isn’t social. I have friends who are really active on Instagram even requesting me to upload their vids and yet they never really want to meet in person..I wonder where are we heading
Caveman days. We are going backwards. I highly suspect time travelers are interfering and rewriting things so mankind doesn't succeed.
Yeah true people are loosing trust
The people who are busiest on social media usually have the least going on in their actual life. People who are genuinely busy have no time to post all the time on social media.

I’d never appreciate my mom telling me that i’m beautiful until i saw this video. Social media really makes us insecure and it’s sad : (
It’s very scary when we look at the bigger picture! So many of us comparing our daily lives to the highlights of others. Hey, if you liked this go check out my first video - ‘INTRO / make a change’ I’m very passionate about modern day society and how social media plays a bit part in this, any support won’t go unnoticed!
The moment I realized I liked posts without even reading or looking at the image, I thought WTF. WHY AM I EVEN DOING THIS?
it's now been 4 years without social media. I still have not missed it.
People on phones don't see things. The era of phones infrastructure was NOT ready for the overload as we were getting more and more computers online. MS decided it's either PC's or phones. At first they tried to merge the two which was called Windows 8.
it's true that social media will really affect you, you will feel insecure. I know someone at a young age already feel insecure about herself, it's because we learned to compare ourselves to others. I just agree that those who don't spend much time on social media has peaceful life than us social media users.
If your top of the heap, no need for feelings.

Great video like always sir
I'm feeling so proud of myself after deactivating all my social media accounts even during the quarantine time and instead invested on creating a better self.
Same
I uninstalled a part of social media and I felt that I had much more time during quarantine for important things
Good job man.I deactivated my Instagram account few days back
I've been so depressed during the last 5 months because of social media. I had no money, I felt ugly and worthless. Going on Instagram, made it a lot worse to the point I thought of suicide everyday. I decided to stop going on it constantly n try to avoid it. Ever since I did, I've become so happy in general to the point I decided to pursue my graduate job in London, since my anxiety b depression got better. I'll get to know if I got the job or not tomorrow, even if I don't, I'll still be happy for actually pushing myself to go. I feel optimistic about the future. Pls guys try to avoid it if you have depression or anxiety. Take care
Ps, my anxiety and depression has risen, now I'm afraid of starting my job and I probably won't accept it
❤️🧡💛💜 I'm happy for you!
Take the job
I deactivated. Last time I did for 8 months went back on and got back into depression. When I don’t have it I feel like I’m living for me. Not a bunch of people who don’t matter. Your happiness comes first.
goku san Take the job. You deserve it. Be happy. You have to come first. So take that first step and get up and get out there. Life is too short to stay down. Life can be so beautiful if you allow it.

Interesting topic my friend
Why our cell phones not release dopamine while we take online classes 😂😀
Because its boring
😂😂😂😂some dumbos even get it😆
OMG IKRRR
Hhaa .....right
I am wondering the same, mine releases Melatonin 😴
idk why everyone's saying 'you're watching this video in a social media app' honestly, youtube's a streaming service. and what makes it different from ig and tiktok and others is that it's not low attention span based.
Also, that we talk about this in UA-cam means that it won't be on a platform being criticized. They have the control on the visibility of posts in those places and likely won't enjoy their reputation being harmed.
Well... part of it is low attention part but if you stay away from all that then definitely it's a really good website, i just want all the others to close down but UA-cam i use to get information from for a number of things and learn things i love it! but all the bad content needs to go, everything needs to just be there for a purpose to help us in our lives not bring people down.
UA-cam defo doesn't suck you in in the same way of not you don't have to let it do i don't really subscribe to people anymore after a lot of bad incidents with youtubers cos it locks you into only watching them but it's not realistic to what i may feel like doing and watching so i just search it.
There are also 1-4+ hour podcasts/ lectures, (Dr. Racanello) Audiobooks and even tutorials.
So UA-cam has something for those of us having a longer attention span as well.
UA-cam is basically a television that you choose the program yourself
really thats so bullshit UA-cam's social media you're socializing right now with people but is funny everyone gives it a pass thats sad
I watch this video just so I can have motivation to stay off social media.
I’ve been in my phone so much it’s ridiculous. I remember when I was 12 or 13 and I got grounded because I’ve been on my phone too much which lead to safety problems and I got so mad and depressed that I’d do anything to get it back. Or I’d get so triggered when my parent say I been on my phone too much. When now that I’m a couple years older I truly understand what my parent meant.
I get so bored at times that I just turn my life into social media and what I think people want to see that I just need to live my life and find different alternatives !!!
excellent work. over time we can abuse social media as a place to speak out our difficulties and solve issues in life. earlier people can boast on how happy they are by buying a car, a house, getting married and so on. now it is just a show off free of cost and unrealistic. !
it's not just social media. It's the whole world. From society and standards to school.
And blaming it all on Social Media is stupid.
@@Avicerox exactly lmao. Especially parents nowadays and adults like to blame everything on social media telling us we should stop making it a part of our lives and depending on it, but i never understood it. I do use social media but I could go without it for a week. Who said it's social media? It's the stupid world you created and left for us.
@@vooyz Yeah, and I don't get why they think Social Media to be bad and fake. The Internet has taught me more than Schools can ever teach me. The Internet has helped defeat my depression being caused due to School, and it helps my introvert personality a lot. I can never understand these guys.
@@Avicerox Exactly. Social media and games have taught me so much more than school.
@@Avicerox EXACTLY. Parents just LOVEEE to blame our social media. Like social media is literally the thing that keeps me motivated now. I wake up at 3 A.M. randomly without knowing why? *Media*. I like "different" music? *Media*. I'm sad? *MEDIA*. Like its always the media smh
I am using social media to watch how social media ruins my life.
underrated comment.
stupid thing to be said. be productive instead
@@rashijain2558 take some things light, miss :)
Not just social media, it’s porn addiction too and Netflix and anything like it
When I left them I felt sooooo much better, I’m now just using UA-cam and I hope I leave it
I'd pay for an alternative to Google maps and street view that actually works for PC users.
WOW, Thanks From 🇱🇰 Sri Lanka
Social media is waste of time.
Only time it's not is if you're running a business.
Robert girma welllllll no..take this video for example or great TED talks or motivational speeches...social media is very very helpful and useful depending on how u use it and what u use it for
Robert girma everything has pros and cons
Yet here you are
I don’t even use other social media except UA-cam I’m just so sick of seeing every person on their phones 24/7 and hearing bout Instagram, Snapchat, tiktok, etc. I just hate phone and social media culture ..... k I’m done.
Same ! :(
I quit Instagram two days ago and I feel a lot better! I actually feel focused on my life and what I enjoy doing. To be honest it’s all a big distraction and I’m glad I broke free of it
antes la gente hablaba de futbol y quien eran sus futbolistas favoritos y sus equipos ahora solo saben hablar de redes sociales de facebook de instagram de snachap de seguidores de me gustas de tiktok y mas mierda y esto va ser peor en el futuro
Hmmmm right buddy:(
I rly need to quit social media
Social media drove me to insanity and ruin
I never like social media, my friends keep on backbiting someone when someone upload a picture
The fact that UA-cam is recommending me this video.
Me too
Me too
Me too bruh
Me too
Nothing is a consequence...
"How social media is destroying you!"
Me at 3am binge watching yt : Yeah I'll watch this.
UA-cam is okay, it’s much better than Fb or insta because there are plenty of useful content than just watch others beautiful life even they’re not true at all.
@@lebaochau1668 yeh
In youtube you watch a lot of intersing videos,in instagram you watch peoples acting like gangsta and a lot of bullshit things,you speak with peoples and create stress to your self
Same
The annoying thing is social media is so widespread that some companies communicate through social media apps with their employees and they expect you to have one even if you dont want to use it cos you have to work there and you have to have that certain account which sucks and it shouldnt compulsory for anyone in anywhere
Strange I haven't felt this in social media before
As you know in the past 2 years I've been going through a lot and I haven't posted many videos, this is why I wanted to work on a topic that mattered to me. I hope this video will make you ponder about how you use social media.
P.S. This video just got featured and uploaded on Anynomous Offical Channel. Wohooo!
Just keep going bro. We love you. I can't tell you how much your videos have helped me. THANK YOU.

@@jaishreeram8045 Haveli pe aa jana to my comment above!
me: wow they really make a great point
also me: *spends another 3 hours on youtube after watching this video*
Lmaoooo Fr tho 😂
Lol haha
Social media nowadays is about who got the Best Lifestyle..who has the most expensive material things..competition with each other plus there's no privacy on Instagram and Facebook..they both have special features to view/stalk anyone's profile..even celibrities and public figures..to genuine people out there keep your life private and to a minimum because anyone could be watching you.
There’s always pros and cons to social media.. at the end of the day you are in control of your own life, actions and thoughts 🤷🏼♀️
👍💖🌸
But alot of people arent standing up for themselves, or the world.
People are literally dying out there from social media
Recently i deleted my social media.....and in recovery time i had been thinking to go again on it, on that lifestyle...but after seeing this vd....i wont thank u!!!!
HA! I’ve been off Facebook & Instagram for almost two years now don’t miss it one bit! 😘✌🏼 super happy with life 😊
Neither do I!
Taylor Downing woohoo that’s awesome!
Congrats, i too joined in the club right from 2 days back
Congrats been on the road ..
Were you an active user? I want to quit but it’s hard
UA-cam is much more compatible with human life. If you spend too much time on it, at least you are getting lots of info. Ban social media.
So ban UA-cam lol?
@@imanepink no youtube give me knowledge and news i am learning programming language like python from youtube
@@ash-gr3gr it's still a social media... Whether people like it or not. UA-cam is the also the only social media I actually care about and regularly use too. OP said ban social media so using their logic UA-cam should be banned because is a social media.
@@imanepink in instagram, Facebook etc, it friend-friend relationship. But in youtube is like creator-audience relationship. So i don't consider youtube as a social media. That's my personal view.
But generally youtube is considered as a social media.
@@civilizedmonster yeah UA-cam is a Social Media. I am against banning YT but the OP said ban social media lol so using their logic that means ban YT.
Social media is no worse than adults of the 70s and 80s with their noses stuck in a newspaper.
oh my god am i addicted😮
"the unglamorous,unfiltered day-to-day bland normality"what a line!
I closed down my Facebook account today. It already feels like one less thing I have to waste my time on.
