The average person spends 147 minutes, or 2.45 hours, on social media per day — that’s up two minutes from 2021. Which might not be so great: Studies show that social media can increase negative self-image, depression, anxiety, and feelings of loneliness. And then there are privacy concerns and the sheer level of exhaustion from the deluge of content that people encounter on a daily basis.
So it would make total sense if you quit social media in 2022. And if you did, we want to hear from you for an upcoming story on BuzzFeed News. What were the highlights? The challenges? Did you end up returning?
