Life Without Social Media

Social media has become man's number one companion because the hardship going on in the world today is alarming and everyone is looking for a place of solace. With the situation of everything today, I'm part of those that take solace in Social media.

Social media is a world on its own which has both merits and demerits; more than 80% of our time nowadays is been spent on various social media platforms either to learn, earn, search for information or just to catch cruise.

I love social Media because of lots of reasons, sometimes I might not even have recharge card on my phone to call out but I must surely have data in other to connect with people most especially on WhatsApp.

And the features on WhatsApp has also makes life convenient for it's user through audio message, audio or video call. I can say, the ability to make connections with people is one of the major reasons all of us are so used to our various social media platforms.

The Effects of No Social media on Me
The effect of not having access to social media platforms at all will be severe on me which will make life so boring and lonely for me to live. Social media serves as man's number one support system apart from ones partner/family, there is no how you won't see something that would catch your attention on it which will brighten your day.

Being away from from it will cause loneliness which might lead to depression if care isn't taking unless you have something reasonable that's preventing you from been active on it.

Social media platforms are places where I get to know what's happening around the world with news that cut across various sectors of life. Just as you all know that man is neither omnipresent nor omnipotent, so we can't know what's happening at different places at the same time.

In other for me to be current with events going on at different places, there is need for my activeness on social media. Getting news is so fast and easy on social media which allows me to keep up with trends and current events going on at different places, being away from it will make me clueless on events that are going on.

Social media is also where I get to learn different types of things. There are lots of things that can edifies one on it, skill acquisition groups that one can join are also on it. Moreso, through videos and pictorial tutorial online one can learn one or two things that are profitable.

So being away from social media will make me ignorant of different things I intend to learn. In short life will just be dark and boring for me if I don't have any access whatsoever to social media.

Conclusion
Although, I'm trying my possible best not to addicted to social media because I got to understand that too much of everything is bad. And being devoted to it can make one procrastinate on lots of things to do.

So the strategies I use to prevent addiction is to do away with it when I have important things to do and also when I noticed I've spent too much time on it. I also know that I can't live my life in comparison to the things I see online because I got to understand that large number of people live fake life online.

So I've trained myself to turn a blind eye to some unimportant things I see while also appreciate and desire good things that are pleasurable to me.

Learning is one aspect of social media we are thankful for. With social media, we can earn degree certificates from distant learning centers.
Life without social media would definitely be boring

Being without social media can be hell, especially if you use it as an important tool. For me there is no replacement

A life without social media will surely be boring. Imagine having to stay all day without social Media especially when you have a vacation from work. Haha. That will be a very boring day.

Also, I like what you said about being informed about what's happening around us. Social media makes that easier.
