Hello all,

Wow! I didn't expect an outpouring of responses and support from so many. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
A few of my main takeaways from responses:

1) Wow (again!), social media seems to be big business! Seems to be the Starbucks of the Internet. I've never been one to indulge highly in trends, including technology and even Starbucks. Still, I may be feeling that colloquial term "FOMO"--fear of missing out!

2) One of my main reasons for leaving Facebook specifically was unfortunately a very sad one, one that I will not really talk about due to personal reasons. Reading everyone's comments was very helpful and gently reminded me of a very important reason why I ultimately wish to stay away from Facebook.

3) I think I would like to babble more about this issue with my T. I think I am trying my best to live my best life, but I'm quite confused regarding social media. I'm a young adult, and I feel that many people around my age enjoy social media or find value in it. Personally, I don't find good values from social media. However, I wish I could just follow a trend for once without having to have racing analytical thoughts on how I ultimately won't find value in social media.

I thank you all dearly for your contributions to this thread.
