I realized after a one month hiatus from social media that I am happier and thinking more clearly without it. I don’t think I will leave Minds. I will however be spending less time on social media for the foreseeable future. Something else I realized is that scrolling through a newsfeed so replete with black pills and other bad news desensitized me to this clown world. I would get outraged for a few minutes and move on to the next awful news. I didn’t allow myself time to channel my anger into anything productive.
