My biggest problem is that Instagram and Facebook (my worst addictions) are really helpful for learning about events, posting about your events, marketing, etc. That's what I'd have a hard time parting with, people depend on my posts for learning about events. Also the DM's are really helpful for making connections and staying in contact with important ones.

Hey Caroline watching your video from india ❤🌼 its amazing and you are beautiful!

i love you baby😍😍😘😘

Hi Lovely Vlog Keep it up <3

Thanks for speaking your truth! Really refreshing 🙏

Oh god, it has been so long since I've seen one of your videos! This vlog was such a great accompaniment to my ritual of afternoon tea in the winter sun. As always, it added that sprinkle of extra warmth On that note, wishing you happy holidays ahead, Caroline! Take Care ☃️

I can't get enough of watching your videos, it's so great.

Hi Caroline, what is your instagram for subscribers to follow? I am not seeing it linked anywhere.

She’s back!!!

just the same as all other drugs you get high for the first time and then after 2 weeks you need to drink it every day just to feel normal you dont even get a buzz anymore only a placebo effect. you drink coffee you sleep bad wake up feel tired need coffee again just a visious cycle lol

It's been 9 days since I haven't drank coffee or anything having caffeine. Since then I have a much appreciation for water which I have taken for granted. Water is now my one and only beverage of choice.

Prior to 2019 I felt very estranged by social media and blamed a lot of my loneliness on it. While I think that our smartphones have facilitated a culture of loneliness I also believe that , like you mentioned in the video, sometimes we can’t connect to others until we connect to ourselves. I worked as a fundraiser in 2019 and probably socialized more that year than I had in the past 5. I realized that what was holding me back was my fear about engaging with people and not being relatable, which wasn’t inherently the fault of social media. You just have to be intentional with how you interact with the world and more often than not other people will feel similarly to you.

I would keep off the caffeine you appear more calm than in previous videos

great vlog

Chicory or posture may help a little for cravings. I think cold turkey with bottled water is what I used to kick coffee. Try peppermint herbal tea that might help also. Watch out for chocolate! It triggered my coffee craving. Watch out for sugar. Hope this helps! Just say to yourself, I love being free from coffee! The seventh day Adventists may have a coffee and cigarette cessation program that will help you. Bye for now.😅

You don't imagine how much this video helped mee, thank u!!

Instagram and social media in general is such a waste of energy and time. I’ve been way better off without it. I also enjoy trips and vacations more than before.

KEEP GROWING! ☀️

I know what you mean about the promiscuous comment. I started to feel icky that posts of my body got more likes/comments than when I talked about real issues etc. It was so shallow & repetitive. I stayed off social media completely for 2 years! It was the best. Then I went back on got addicted again ugh and now been off instagram for 2 months now and I don’t miss it. I feel that peace of mind that I missed when I was offline ❤️

This is indeed very heartwarming and very wonderful and very beautiful very adorable and this brings back such great memories of when I use to be a 90s kid and an early 2000s kid and I am a new subscriber as well:).

There’s a lot of great points. I especially like the part about consuming less and producing more. Also the idea of living a life of positive influence. I’m on a similar journey. For me I gave up a bunch of stream services like Netflix, HBO Max, etc., and now want to focus on producing more. Anyways, dropping in to say this was inspiring!

Your thoughts, feelings, and position on this subject are so admirable and morally inspiring! Thank you for sharing and taking your stand. I look at the big picture and realize that the goal of IG and other social media platforms is to use people to promote their products (marketing) and they do this by monetizing the views - so yes, it is a business and we are its consumers and promoters.

I loved how real you were in this video, I’m 16 and I just deleted TikTok yesterday but I still have Instagram but I want to get rid of it eventually too. ❤❤

Inspiring story! It’s very difficult for many to get off the social media platform I think for two reasons: the fear of missing out and the addiction people get to these little dopamine hits of getting likes, comments, etc. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has an excellent TED talk on this, getting attention vs paying attention and how social media gets you addicted to getting attention. Anyways, enjoyed listening to your inspiring story!

Appreciate your videos 😊 ✨

Hii I delete my account on instangram

Just deleted mine (again) but for good this time.

First, I love your energy! I find it super interesting that so many people are coming out with these kinds of videos, and they all have the same general message: 'social media is toxic'. I agree completely. I deleted my social media accounts (TikTok, Instagram, FaceBook, etc.) around 4 months ago and have much less of an urge to compare my face and body to other women. Thanks for making this video!💜

To quote Betty White during her appearance hosting SNL: "I didn't know what Facebook was. And now that I do know what it is, I have to say it sounds like a HUGE waste of time."

Off topic, You've got really good hair😍 I quit FB and IG a while back and I'm not planning on going back, Too much pressure to feel validated and at the end of the day it's all smoking mirrors.

Spirituality isn't weird. If you need food for your body, you also need to feed your soul somehow. So don't shame yourself out of it.

Yeah I have reflected on much of the same things, and I don't think that this topic concerns women more than men - we aren't that different to eachother. I've been through two rounds of almost purging my social media presence since 2008 and I've come to realize that it's happening in cycles for me, like that some anxiety level reaches the top and I react with the flee or fight instinct, but always comes back for a new round. Social media is a tool, and like any other tool in the real world you can harm yourself on it, but with practice it can make wonders for your cause.

Thank you for this video. ❤

i went through a hard time 2 years ago . And i would always post these vulnerable moments of myself and having people watching me who didn’t really care about and i would expose myself too much and i also had people that never liked me watching my life and it honestly made me uncomfortable

Just deleted Instagram "again" today. Causes me depression and I waste lots of time

Subbed! Been loving watching these vlogs! Thank you a lot for your advice videos and these vlogs! You rock! Keep killin it!

Great video. But I just want to ask, how you you get over the fear of missing out? Like I usually just watch other people's stories and stuff but I ask my self do I really need to be watching other people's lives. Not knowing what other people are upto gets to me all the time. Any advice would be helpful. I just want to delete the app and not care about other people's lives.

Caroline, your video on quitting social media was very true. i think its so sad how many young women are being impacted & men with depression because all the filters and comparison that is literally stealing their life, joy, & just moments,, time is currency!!! my hubs & i were talking about how kinda strange it is that we as a culture take selfies.. There is an amazing documentary by former model from the 70s called Gods of the new age, it is so interesting hope you get to see it. i saw it years ago seemingly by accident.. its nice seeing people starting to see the down and sad side of social media 💟 Shalom :))

REMEMBER me when you're famous! continue please I'll always love to watch your videos ❤

social media is very dangerous and toxic

Omg obsessed w you, you have such a beautiful energy

Hey Wandering with Caroline, really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos better than your Editor with good pricing and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your videos to reach to a wider audience ? Pls let me know what do you think ?

My reasons to quit Instagram : * Comparison with more good-looking people * Wasting my time * You Have Nothing To Pretend * You stop obsessing over others * FOMO into ROMO (Relief) * I would like to be social, then on being social media * Addiction - Screen Time * Mental fatigue * Finding peace * Get my attention span back * To be more focused * Learn new things * Want my previous version of Sashwat back * To remove external validation * To not go after likes * To be more present * Start living for myself and not for others * Excepting my flaws - Not undermining myself as a person * Do not make myself dependent on short-term pleasures * Dopamine detox * I can start reading books * I can focus on my studies * Try to make some real connections * Enjoying the Outdoors * Avoid Advertisements * Privacy * It Doesn't Often Teach You Anything Valuable * It Makes You More Negative * It Encourages Superficial Relationships * Feeling jealous after seeing others happy with their friends * Online is no substitute for offline. * Having more meaningful conversations * Realizing who your real friends are * Having more time to think * Getting back control of my life * To not overshare anything with anyone because not everyone has a good intention for you * To not get influenced by anyone’s agenda or thinking * Seeing people for what they are and not for how they look * I can care less to show off or look at others show off * Improving Sleep Quality * Strengthening Willpower * Practicing Mindfulness and Cultivating Patience * Building Confidence * Embracing Boredom * Enhancing Creativity * Improving Sleep Quality * AT THE LAST TO Live Authentically Be HAPPY Don't believe everything that you see online You are what you eat "If you don't pay for the product, you are the product" And I don't want to be the product BY THE WAY, You’re so beautiful Please Marry Me

Bravo. IG is corrosive and a time thief. I think we often forget to factor in the background static social media has in our lives. It may not be front of mind but it’s always lurking in the background affecting us.

Love your channel just found it and subscribe 😊

It took me a broken phone to stop using social media. My iphone was beyond repair because it fell out of my pocket rock climbing lol and instead of spending the money to buy a new one i actually downgraded to a black berry. Its been almost a month and i feel free but totally agree with the points you brought up in your video.

you're gorgeous!

You’re so beautiful

You sharing about the omegas and consistent periods as I watch, with my channel all about periods :D
