Six Signs Proving That Now Is The Best Time To Take A Break From Social Media

2The news of a significant change in your life reaches your close ones through social media

There is a reason why some people are closest to your heart. And, if you start getting to the point where the news of a big change in your life like getting married or shifting countries, reaches your close ones through social media, then it is not a good sign. You may feel that it is not a big deal, but just think about it, when we personally call up or meet our best friend or family member and tell them about that much-awaited promotion or the good news that she said yes, then they genuinely feel happy about it and congratulate us with a big hug. And trust me; no emoticon or smiley can beat the feeling of that hug.

3You feel that a thing has not happened if it has not been socially broadcasted

When all you think about is how to put up a post about something that is happening right now in your life and stop enjoying that particular moment, then you are not on the right track. To get the feeling that something worthwhile has happened in your life, if you need to post about it, then you are only living in the virtual world, rather than living in the real world.

4The only thing that you do when you get some free time is to check social media

You get some free time when you are not working, say like when you are in the doctor’s waiting room or when you are out for dinner, and the first thing that you do is go to your social media accounts, then you are not just being dependent on social media, but you are also being rude to the people around you, who are waiting for you to get yourself checked by the doctor because they care about you. If you have people with you, then is it not a good idea to talk to them, rather to do see your timeline.
