The apps are not the issue. How the user uses them is the issue.
A simple hammer can give you a rush if you smash something.
That does not mean the hammer is wrong if someone uses it to smash everything they own in an attempt to get a high.
Let's be real, a certain political demographic has spent the majority of their adult life trying to change the world through apps.
Only for them to figure out after they are much to old, that reality is alot different than the isolated social circles they have occupied.
This explains all the grown children with no moral compass who have taken to rioting and intimidating behavior in order to explress their political views, rather than acting like adults and trying to change things in a productive way.
Children throwing tantrums in the streets because their digital bullying, gaslighting, and blatent manipulation tactics have failed.
Well now they are failing in the real world and they do not like it. Hence the onset of depression and anxiety.
Try living your life with an open mind and open heart.
Try living your own way while accepting other peoples way of life.
Want others to be free and happy, and you will find freedom and happiness in your own life.

@Zero One Exactly man. Following the horrible stuff in the world sort of makes you feel a responsibility for it; to keep following the stories, and to feel responsible like you could help but you're not doing it. You're right our brains aren't capable of handling it all without crashing or causing pointless extra stress. Ig I don't wanna go out of my area where I kinda know what i'm talking about, but its almost like our brains were not meant to care about things on a scale this big. Idk it's really weird.
It truly is terrifying, the over stimulation, over exposure, the endless brainless mindless scrolling
Literally iq dropping. It's one of the reasons why school students in america have worse academic performance than before
it's driven by the fear of missing out, among other things...

Actually I disagree with this, you don’t rule the mind, pay attention to it first, your mind and body will tell you everything that it needs, unfortunately most people’s minds and body are so dysregulated that they can’t connect with that center anymore.
@@MrMadalien A ruler watches his or her subjects, but it isn’t all they do. There are occasions where a firm control needs to be exacted, lest the errant thought translate into errant actions. Once manifested as action, they only become partially under one’s dominion and then the mind will have to deal with whatever outer reactions the actions put into play. Simply watching one’s mind may be well in moments of repose, but there are times a wise watcher must indeed rule.

Just switch off any notifications and any sounds on your phone. 99% of the nonsense that comes from phones (calls, texts, messages) are nonsense. Be a man and only react when you are ready to (10 mins a day).
Man, I always forget how similar my problems are to everyone else’s. These past few months I’d sit and scroll through social media day after day. Told myself I’d never join the tiktok bandwagon, yet every social media platform adapted its style and I watch it. I work for 20 minutes, then I pick up my phone to scroll through these tasteless, view hungry videos that I ultimately get mad at and switch to another app. It’s a hard thing to get away from, but damn worth it once you do.

Social media/Apps are designed to be addictive. So yeah they are -in some way- the issue. The users should take responsibility for how they use them but let's not forget what apps do to our brains.
@@amberglow7612 nah, its mainly rhe users fault for using them, people need to stop complaining about companies "manipulating" the users, people need self accountanility
Depends on the news. I’d argue the recent events have a huge impact on us as individuals.

@@tboltgames I see, I see, so he's conditioned you to take in whatever content and buy whatever product. He's cultivated low effort thinkers for viewers, simply liking for the sake of having liked previous videos, regardless of the video's topic itself, interesting.

The thoughts that enter my brain after a media detox is incredible. It feels like waking up from a deep sleep.
Staying inside, scrolling through social media, and watching netflix, just few seconds going out and looking at the sun, and you feel positive, and that the world is not as dark as you portrait it on social media, because on social media negative things are promoted most often.
How long do you recommand for a detox
@@cosmindvd ruclips.net/video/nxSgAwYeVaI/видео.html
@@hedrickoYO Id practice with different time periods. 1 day long is a good place to start. Dont look at any media for a full day. That includes using the internet. Block notifications from all apps. Just have your phone for possible emergency calls. Go somewhere secluded and just sit and think about your life. You will realize that you have been sleep walking and not taking care of important things in your life.

Exactly, just keep yourself occupied with something or someone and you'll be just fine. This is why having a job and a normal routine is essential. You won't have time to worry or lose your mind then because you're a busy bee.
At first when I watched this, I was worried if you were okay. Then I realized of course there's always a message to your videos, and the moment you showed the forest after all of the online information addiction clips, I got emotional. It is so true. As soon as I go outside, it just makes me want to chuck my phone away and just do yard work or just sit on my front porch and watch the birds and squirrels and say hi to neighbors as they walk by with their dogs, and feel the sun warming me with a light breeze passing by. It reminds me of being a kid, and how much more present I was. Thank you for the beautiful job on the video. They're so impactful, and you do a great job with the artistry and creativity too.
That intro was a cinematic masterpeice. I really like the way you've been editing your latest videos man, the quality is unreal. Also always nice to see a fellow Jay's fan, hopefully you're cheering the leafs on tonight as well!
Thanks man! I actually don’t like the Leafs at all hahaha I’m sorry man. Huge Habs fan here, but I dislike the Bolts more than the Leafs so I am indeed cheering for the Leafs. Hoping they can break their first round curse!
seriously!!! it gave me chills.
i agree . the intro was "going somewhere". more like that please
This resonates on such a meaningful level and just nailed the feeling of this moment in time. Thank you for this. Thank you for letting us know that so many of us share the same concern, the same anxiety. And most of all, Thank you for reminding us that we can put it all away. We can put the black mirrors down.
Love this storytelling format of your videos, keep them coming.
I was feeling exactly like this, a few weeks ago. I chose to just embrace boredom sometimes, breathe the fresh air and seek what I want through actions and stop waiting, embrace the choice and consequences of our sacrifices and go on with it. That's life
Yea sometimes it not abt the choice, it's abt just following it through
1:40 That thing is peace, stillness, simplicity.
It's like that meme I saw "Parents at 30: 2 kids and a house. Me at 30: "I should abandon society and live in the woods""
This is probably, by far my favorite video from your channel. Recently I feel the same way. I could spend the entire day following up what's happening on the planet. But I've decided to cut all stimulations like social media and negativity. It does wonders and definitely what I didn't know, I needed.
Thanks for the video. It is beautifully made.
As someone who has dealt with Derealization/Depersonalization Disorder, this is such good advice. What we’re running from is usually the thing we truly need and want :) Take a breath, drop your shoulders, and allow the current moment to happen. It gives your environment a chance to do the heavy lifting instead of your mind.
Hi, do you think DDD can be caused by excessive social media consumption alone?

@@existence.5806 Absolutely. It’s very important to remember that it is an anxiety-based condition that is caused by behavior. It is not an incurable sickness or disease. It’s totally changeable by behavior. There is nothing wrong with the brain.

@@hangloosejanjuc I'm not so plugged in to social media that my world view is wonked up by it. I don't think the content I'm consuming is messing with me so much, so I can't exactly say consuming less can have more of an effect.

I don't see a lot of videos like this in our current era of RUclips so I thought I'd comment (something I rarely do) on how nice it was.

For the past few weeks I've been feeling more and more angry with the world and I've been stuck inside my own head for too long. This video comes at just the right time for me.
Such a great video man. This was definitely me when the pandemic started and even before it, but I got rid of mostly all my socal media profiles (still have IG) and got back in touch with reality and realized how many things in my life I needed to address. The goal is to get a home in a really quiet location and just work and create in peace, as it gives me the greatest sense of purpose, but to also interact and have regular conversations with people as the world is missing that connection with one another.
Great video production.. love the color grading
In my opinion one of your best videos.
Poetry meets the simplest and easiest to recall mindsets needed not much for productivity as much as enjoying productivity.
Thank you Joey for your efforts.
The beginning of this video reminded me of a terrifying moment I had the other day while showering. I was calm, my mind was empty and it felt as though not a single thought, positive or negative, was floating in it. Then all of a sudden these random events started swirling in my head and I felt like I was about to snap and lose control of my brain. It's like I was thinking of everything at once and my head was going to pop. The Will Smith incident even passed by for some reason 😆. All these random thoughts just kept zoning in and out of my mental and wouldn't stop. I even thought of outer space and the planets including Earth. Everything started feeling foreign and like nothing made sense. Even my surroundings (which was my shower and the stuff inside it like soap bars and bottles of shampoo at the moment) started feeling like they were fake and didn't make sense. This feeling eventually passed but it lasted a good 3 or 4 minutes. I already fear losing my mind daily so that doesn't help and I've also been super isolated. My point is I think this video perfectly encapsulates someone's mind being over stimulated in today's world and goes perfectly with it's title
Dude that's a psychotic episode. I suffer from that and it's absolute garbage. Social media and TV make things even worse. This video is everyhting I've been thinking about since the pandemic started and everyone had nothing to do except complain and fight over anything and everything on the internet and television. I decided to get away from it all and that helped me get through those times with a little more peace. I even started to read books again hahah my attention span was horrible before that. I still disconnect from everything when I'm not working and have to use the internet.
@@lghjsdtugfkgfjgtru Damn, I thought it was more of a derealization episode, I really need to watch myself. I know what u mean about social media, especially facebook is bad for this I feel. It creates the false perception of, "Everyone has perfect lives except me" and when u start feeling that way it's so easy to get in your head and feel depressed about everything. I got off all social media except RUclips back in 2020. I've been trying to start reading and finishing books but have crappy self discipline with it. I've been working out but not consistently enough. I notice during and after working out I feel the most grounded. I still isolate myself in my house way too damn much though
lay off consuming media bro, that includes news youtube and social media
@@donniechant1357 well defo don't let strangers online diagnose you. It does sound more like derealization to me. Psychosis: "delusions, hallucinations, talking incoherently, and agitation. The person with the condition usually isn't aware of his or her behavior."
@@nondescriptbeing5944 Yea, now knowing the description of psychosis symptoms, it definitely wasn't anything of that nature. I do have a severe fear of something like that happening to me at any moment though and can give myself anxiety attacks just from thinking of hearing voices and/or seeing hallucinations. I watched this schizophrenic dude give a interview a few years back (I mean this guy had it bad) and it put me into a paranoid panicky state for a few days. I visualize so much and it's a blessing and a curse because I can visualize myself in good situations but at the same time my brain thinks it's fun to visualize being crazy for some reason. But yea, if anything I think it's more derealization. I've read up on it a little bit and most the symptoms sound very similar to how I feel when I go into these states. As weird as it sounds I think what sets it off a lot is when I think of outer space and the universe, that type of stuff and it starts making me feel like my surroundings are almost dream like. I usually listen to music or work out to kind of push the feeling to the side but in situations where I can't immediately turn to that it gets pretty scary, I gotta face it head on then. I can't imagine what people with way worse mental shit going on are going through or have gone through
This was beautiful, man. Great visual storytelling and message.
I'm happy I postponed watching this vid when I first saw its notification before two weeks..
I really needed this talk* exactly rt now!
I appreciate it👏🏻
Lately I have been dealing with the disconnection from the world, derealisation... Human connection and specially family helps but when I find myself alone again.. I struggle with anxiety because everything just feels fake, weird... Sometimes I realise it's mostly fear but that I fear [Life, being alone, not understanding what's actually going on, no path, feeling lost as a human who feels trapped in a reality that is fake, in a fake world...] is also the freedom and the point of Life.
You are not alone. Best wishes to everyone, hope you can change your mindset and point of view of Life to one that makes you feel healthy, Happy and sane.
This is exactly what i've been feeling for the past few mos. Pressure, the feeling that I need to keep up with a lot of things.
uninstall social media for 2-3 months, I did thinking I couldn't live without it. After those months, I've never been able to use social media again, I just feel it's a bunch of UNNECESARY info in my life I don't want to waste time on. I promise it seems impossible, it seems ur about to disappear, but once you do it, and get hours and hours everyday for LIVING, then you don't want it again.
and that's only for social media, I think it's applicable to many things we feel are important, but aren't.
This was one of your best videos. I was feeling this exact way...while opening youtube and IG. Thanks man.
This is my fav video of yours so far. So great man..
This really resonated with me today. Thank you for this one, Joey!

Biblical explanation of the Gospel:
God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why
we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go
there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but
rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam
sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23)
The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell.
Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how
high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him.
For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ
- for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day.
None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all
have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us
are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is
guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit
to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal
hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned.
No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin.
Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16)
We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ.
''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -
not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins
(past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him.
This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him
by reading God's Word.
So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13)
''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15)
''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19)
Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8).
Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin.
While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10).
Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.
If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6)
(John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again."
If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually.
When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance
until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36)
''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7)
If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes -
to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God.
You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace
revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son.
''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17)
''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10)
You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ.
As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so.
In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.''
''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19)
''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41)
''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body,
but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21)
''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that,
just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4)
''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God,
who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12)
Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left!
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32)
Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you!
Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
This video found me exactly when I needed it!
I have a dilemma - what happens if I find real life overwhelming too? I go off social media because I find it overwhelming only to find that society is still overwhelming with people acting busy, rushing around for no apparent reason, noise everywhere, traffic pollution, sounds of people blabbling etc.
What if it feels like there is no escape? What happens if real life is starting to feel like social media?
Maybe the city isn't the place for you
@@somerled5513 hmm good point I can move out but my point still stands that society is getting more and more chaotic
Quiet the mind.. sit still for hours without tech. Embrace the silence.
@@livelaughpuke not really if you grow to control where and how you live...life was more chaotic back then...it just APPEARS worse now
you need a hobby. start making music, art or anything.
I’ve just started watching, but can already relate seeing the beginning. I needed this, thank you, Joey
its an ad dude
Holy Heck...I dont know why but that transition from 1:31 straight to the ambient nature atmosphere hit me like a brickwalll and made me stop and reflect for a moment at what in the world I am doing with my life.
Same. Felt like achieving peace after long overstimulation.
This was a great piece!!! The sound design was amazing!
The cinematography, the content, everything is TOP TIER. Thank you so much!❤️
My god Joey, this is some brilliant cinematography and narration! You’ve come a long way since 2019 when I subscribed ✨💯
Beautiful video, really great job on this one, Joey.
Good video man I really needed this
Bro I needed this. Im struggling with social media so hard and im also on the way of disconnecting from the internet. Tbh 10 years ago we didn't know what we were getting into when we were discovering the web. Nowadays It's just a constant stream of bullsh*t stuff running through your brain and It's basically impossible to find the really valuable information between the sh*tload of fake and dumb content whose only purpose is to benefit from you as a viewer.
Fact
I've been having this problem for a while until I deleted all social media for 2 months, now I'm back and I finally got rid of that addictive connection. It's beautiful, as always, amazing video! And keep it up!!!👌💯💯💯
These 5 minutes are a perfect Masterpiece! They represent our mundaine so well and the saddest part is that most people are so hooked up and caught up in this vicious cicle that they can no longer live, thing or act outside of this sticky course of events.
Congratz for the amazing work!!!
"But if i leave it im afraid that i will miss something, feel alone" that summed it all up.
This, This is peek youtube. The cinamatography was amazing, heck even the sponsored section was beautifully produced. The story of going from chaos to beauty was present throughout the video up to the B-roll at the end. That transition at 1:32 was perfect. Other film makers should look to this video on on how to make film that inspires and leaves a lasting impact on their subject.
Lastly how do you prevent yourself from mindlessly scrolling?
I was literally laying out in my yard last night on a hammock with beautiful weather after an incredibly stressful week with a sick toddler and terrible weather, just staring up at the sky, embracing the silence, without my phone, listening to the wind, taking deep peaceful breaths. The feeling of relief and weightlessness and gratitude that came over me was amazing. I resonate with this amazing lifestyle practice you are constantly encouraging your views to embrace so much. I have never before in my life loved unplugging more than I do now, nor have I ever loved the beauty and simplicity of nature, wether it be the Ocean, or the mountains, or the outside woods sounds, more than I do now. I unplugged from social media a few years ago when its poison and toxicity came to a massive head in 2020.. funny how in an entire world being influenced to panic and be afraid of each other, I had peace, and funny how we had some of the best family/friend experiences of our lives then. The only damper was that the majority of the rest of the world had given up on not just living their own lives, but the Joy of life. All because of what people on the other side of a screen are telling them to think and how to live. Living like this in combination with knowing the creator of it all, God, is the greatest thing a human can experience.
That was beautifully written bro. Legit moved me. Thank you I really appreciate it. Keep it up! Much love.
@@MrMarsAlien Except for the God bit.
Dude i needed this so much this is how i am i feel relaxed when im with nature everything slows down ❤
needed this deeply today, thank you
Yeah, I agree. I'm actually from Ukraine, and I live in Kyiv, and I have to say - It is tough to focus on all the bad things that happen here. There were multiple times that I've suggested to my friends to use grounding technics. Holding a piece of ice in your hand, look out the window. It really helps out and snaps you back to reality. So... Yeah.
what does holding a piece of ice cause? I'm curious and want to learn more about those techniques.
@@lghjsdtugfkgfjgtru grounds you, i assume. Keeps you focused on an stimuli here on earth, and away from drifting into obsesive thoughts.
We live one day at a time, your brain is made to focus on the present if you think too much about what would happen next it produces stress, is like using your arms to push a wall, useless and harmful, we don't need to, even in these hard times, knowing that your experience is moment to moment can give you a lot of energy to deal with life.
@@emanuel5880 this is me 10000% I need to think more positive and change my ways
Ooh, what a depression comment.
Your videos never disappoint. They are so on point and really remind me of whats important in life. Thank you Joey!
"The feeling you were running from, is what you were searching for this whole time" i felt this to the core. Ots sorta the equivalent of realizing the person u tried to avoid being was the person who u were all along. And finally coming to terms with it sorta brings comfort
What a beautiful video. Very often I feel so alone in feeling that way but it seems a lot of people are like me. Overthinking, anxiety and social media/news outlet addiction is so depressing. I live in one of the most beautiful parts of Scotland and I feel that I don’t appreciate it enough
i got teary when you spoke about how good you've been doing it. You can see it. how genuinely good you're doing
I hope you are doing well, Akame.
You've come a long way Joey. I'm proud to witness your work.
I binge watched the majority of your videos & bro I gotta say, 1. your content is incredible & immensely helpful & 2. you've made massive physical progress since you've started this channel 🙏🏻 congratulations & thank you, I wish you the best
Man this video was amazing. You're truly gifted at expressing yourself
What a fucking masterpiece, Joey!
It’s a great thing to disconnect very often. When you get too absorbed into all the information, it can send you spiraling into constant depression and anxiety. Great video…Well needed.
Embrace disconnected...alone. The clip montage at the beginning is a perfect explanation of why it is the best option. Choose what you connect with. If you connect with insanity you end up insane.
Thank you for your time and dedication!
Thank you for showing and exposing things/issues people feel, but are afraid to reveal.
Thank you for inspiring and saving people in depression, alcoholics, people thinking about suicide, lonely people and people who feel the same way like you.
Please, keep the good work an motivation!
"Go touch grass" - what a great statement 😄💜.
Your videos just keep getting better and better Joey!
Honestly, ever since I moved out I've been feeling a lot better mentally. Have no TV in my place, so no news & negative stuff & it feels great! Deleted instagram, don't use social media & don't miss it. It's going good 😃
Wow this is an incredibly put together and well thought out video. Truly a masterpiece.
I needed this right now, thanks for taking the time to make this :)
This is so good, thank you for all these reminders, need to get out of head for sure. And off youtube LOL
Man i really needed this so badly i am feeling the same way this whole Ukraine war and food shortages,fuel prices, inflation,netflix what not , cant even focus 1hour of study thanks man for this
Ironically I would not discover this video if it weren't for my RUclips discussion.
Your videos are just on a whole other level dude. You are just incredibly good in moviemaking
reading atomic habits and digital minimalism and a lot of this resonates. love you joey.
This is the best informational video I have seen in a long time - anywhere. Thank you for posting it.
Can we just appreciate how high-quality of a video this is? Those shots are just 😩
