Please drop advice, I've come to accept that I'm HORRIBLY addicted to social media

I got home from work at 2:30am, I got on Instagram around 3:00am, I've been up and now it's time for me to go back to work, no sleep LITERALLY from 3:00am to 2:00pm I was scrolling and commenting on social media, the whole time I'm scrolling and scrolling, I'm telling myself "man you need to get off" "if you read a book, you will be sleep in 10 mins" but I never do. I feel it's partly to do with the content on my social media, it's not a bunch of funny, mindless videos. It's informational, hidden history, metaphysics, etc... I LEARN from them but for some reason it's almost impossible to just put the damn phone down🫠 I'm not looking for sympathy or "just delete the app". I'm looking for real steps to take, or people who have also been super addicted to social media who got out of that HOLE. It's like these past 5 months has PASSED BY due to me constantly on social media but I'm tired of it.

Deleted all basic social media

I’ve been having a problem, (I have to say it) getting rage baited of course on Facebook. I have a problem with debating and arguing lmao. I also self-sabotage in a way on snap because it’s like I blog my whole damn life on there? Why idk. I’ve done it since a teenager, and while I know it’s not bad unless I perceive it as bad, it does make me feel guilty sometimes and the root of that is something I still need to figure out. I deleted tik tok as well! I have also deleted instagram. Tik Tok, Snapchat, Insta, Facebook are ALL deleted. So far it’s been like 2 days, but I honestly feel really good, I’m just trying to find other ways to keep me busy and away from rotting in my bed, or sleeping. The hard part is I don’t have a car, I can’t really go do much and walking around my neighborhood is just bleh. I do have a job, I work 40 hours a week at a senior home so I really feel like getting rid of social media will also help me pay better attention. I just feel so bored. Any tips??

Are influencers just modern-day scammers with better branding?

Most influencers sell lifestyles that aren’t real, promote products they don’t use, and make money off people who trust them. How is that different from scamming just more socially accepted? Or am I being too harsh?

has anyone here tried path social

i’ve been trying to grow my ig for a while now and it feels like i’m just stuck in the same place no matter what i post. i’m not expecting to blow up overnight or anything, but i’d at least like to see some steady movement. path social keeps showing up on my feed lately and i got curious. from what i understand it’s supposed to help you reach people who are actually interested in your niche instead of just padding the follower count. has anyone here actually used it for a few weeks or months? did the followers feel real and did they actually engage, or was it mostly just a bigger number on the profile? just looking for actual experiences before i spend money on it.

Is this a scammer pretending to be TikTok?

I've been receiving emails encouraging me to book a call with a TikTok Ads specialist for my business. The email is from **[email protected]** The email feels like a **scam**. Is anyone else receiving these mails and are they legit?

I’m trying to improve theCTR on myLink in bio and curious what’s actually worked forothers. I getclicks to the page, but not many people click through to the links. Doyou find it’s more about: fewer links? better design? clearerCTA?. Or does the tool itself even matter???
