I’ve been thinking about closing down my Facebook and other social media. I definitely want to keep PC and a couple of other sites.

I spend too much time flipping through everybody’s happy family and friends posts on Facebook, feeling bad that my life is a mess. I don’t post much on there anymore and people question me about things. It seems easier to just shut it down.

Some people have told me they felt much better when they closed Facebook and it also freed up some of their time.

I see both sides of the social media debate, it definitely has benefits and drawbacks and I respect both opinions on that.

I’m wondering for me personally would I feel better if I just shut it down and focus on more meaningful interactions with others?

Or am I just running way from my sad feelings? Social media is not going away and it’s the way people connect these days.

What are your thoughts?
