40 days of no facebook! … But I still have Tumblr :) I feel like this isn’t “cheating” because of the differences between the two. Facebook is definitely unhealthy for me because I waste soo much time scrolling down the newsfeed, just looking at other people’s lives, comparing them to myself. And then I feel jealous, and ugly, and boring, and nothing good comes out of it. It’s stressful and unhealthy for the self-esteem.. for me at least.
On the other hand, I feel like Tumblr is therapeutic. It’s simple, and clean, and organized.. It’s much less personal; I don’t feel like I’m being judged for anything I post. I see pictures of forests and mountains instead of people getting drunk in expensive clothes. It’s like my online photo-journal, with outside sources integrated. You don’t have to check it obsessively for fear of missing something important. It’s a healthy part of my life.. but yes, I’m still an addict.
But being addicted to Tumblr is like being addicted to spinach,
and being addicted to Facebook is like being addicted to nicotine.
