Fri 01112019 : A new beginning.
I have disabled my Instagram account on 1st Nov 2019.
Yes. I did it.
Cold turkey.
Why?
I feel that i have lost focus of what matters most in life.
Bila tengok iG story orang, nampak sedari tu buat makan-makan kat umah dia ngn sedara lelain, tapi kenapa tak ajak aku yang rumah dekat ni? Terus i stress.
Bila tengok iG story orang, nampak kawan yg ku sangka rapat dengan aku tu pegi travel ladies trip dengan kawan kitorang yg juga ku sangka rapat dengan aku tu, tapi kenapa diorang lansung tak pelawa aku sama? Am i not a fun person to be with? Terus aku rasa sedih.
Bila tengok iG story orang, nampak orang tu beli tudung baru, padahal orang tu dah memang cantik pon, dia pakai tudung periuk pon lawa. Terus aku lupa bersyukur dengan rezeki Allah pada ku, dan aku nak jugak tudung tu, padahal dah ada lapan belas helai tudung of tona warna yg sama kat dalam lemari aku tu.
Bila tengok iG story orang, nampak orang tu pegi honeymoon lagi, tapi kenapa aku ngn laki aku takde peluang camni? Terus aku nak carik gaduh ngn laki aku.
Bila tengok iG kedai-kedai, nampak depa iklan barang baru, dan sale sana sini ngn discount code bagai, terus gatai tangan nak click-click beli padahal hutang credit card nak sampai RM10k taktau nak bayar camner.
Bila tengok iG, aku pon ralit.
Lansung terlupa nak tanya khabar anak-anak, apatah lagi nak layan perangai anak-anak aku yang potpet potpet nak bercakap dengan aku.
So ko paham tak betapa aku sendiri, jiwa, dan otak, dan perasaan ni jadik rosak dengan iG ni.
Yer. It's all my fault. I loose control. I loose focus.
Yer. It's all my fault. I loose control. I loose focus.
Hence, that is why I am eliminating the source.
I never have a facebook, nor twitter account.
So, sepatutnya boleh je la idop pon tanpa iG ni, kan?
And a good reason to start blogging again, after a year of silence.
Mari kita cuba.

Sekian.
Will miss you there sis. Tapi i understand your need because I feel it too (need to do the same.)
ReplyDeletethanks dear. it's tempting but i do find solace now.
DeleteI'm one of your silent reader on IG and I miss you. Samala macam i rasa, i got fb tapi dah lama x bukak. Habis masa kat IG je, scroll sana sini, end up apa pun tak dapat and yes duit habis shopping. But suka tgk your IG sebab terhibur gitu. I tatau u ada blog. Lepas ni follow your blog pulak lah :). I also got blog tapi dah bersawang jugakla.
ReplyDeleteawwww.. such a sweet comment. i maybe bukak balik iG sebab nak transfer the hashtags over to blog.have been contacted by many people that have been trying to locate my review hashtags. tak sangka ada yg sudi using me as reference.
DeleteI got you kak. Saya pun went on a social detox for 2-3 months because of the same reasons as yours. Now ada lagi IG but saya cuba not to be online much. I distract myself by buat benda lain so that masa bosan2 takde bukak IG. Alhamdulillah, now "recovered" sikit hehe i pray that may you find your kind of IG distractors too!
ReplyDeletemacam lagi hazab je rasanya i dok tengok ebay and shoppee pulakkk!!
DeleteSocmed detox is necessary babe. U're not alone. I still have my IG but decided to stop displaying my life in it almost a year now... alhamdulillah i feel contented. But i still browsing other's IG just for fun (touch n go kinda thing). I refrained myself from having the unnecessary emotions lols. After all, our life journey is different. There are ups n downs. It's okay becoz it's real life ���� Keep on blogging!
ReplyDeletegood idea.. i may not be updating it, but just open it up for some people benefiting on the reviews i have done before.
DeleteAwwwww, no wonder tgk IG feed no longer ada post psl Sis ni ���� But can totally relate bab mau detox from socmed. My FB just wujud for my sister sake and I rarely go online pn only share post from IG and IG pn I'm slowly reducing my screen time cause it's true it makes you lalai in what is more important which is your family attention. Don't worry, will always be one of your followers and will try to check your blog from time after time. Till then, enjoy the sense of relief from socmed Sis ��
ReplyDeletesusah nak control diri to reduce screen time, tu yg terpaksa cold turkey diri sendiri. the temptation is real wehh.
Deleteassalam. td masa sidai kain br perasan dh lama x jumpa jelita78 kt ig. masuk terus scroll ig cr tp x jumpa. so...xtau nk ckp apa tp nk wish good luck. jgn stop lama sgt ig tu��

ReplyDeleteRindu gak iG tu. Tapi this is something i need to do to get my focus back. Hugs dear.
DeleteSissss..missing you in IG.. Rindu baca sis berletiaq panjang dalam IG.. and jelitapunyareview also very informative..however we respect your decision.. And do actively blogging so that terubat rindu kami
ReplyDeleteTima kasih tau for the support. I totally enjoyed myself knowing that my review helps people. Doakan my sanity ok. Don't be a stranger!!
DeleteI do really miss your potpetpotpet Kak Ayda!!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course your drama laundry bersiri, your travel journey plus how I adore you manage your daily life routine whenever I've started to give up doing mine. I find you as my inspiration gitewwww!!
But I do understand on how toxic the media social have on us when we started to lost focus on other important things in life. Dah jadi macam budak² sawan fon..dok mengadap 24jam, lupa makan..lupa bersosial dgn org lain, buat kerja bertangguh. Lagi teruk when we started to compare our life with others or judging other people's life. Mcm anak² dara i bila tgk YouTube fav channel diorg, mulalah..mummy nak beli macam dlm YouTube tu..nak bilik macam diorg..mummy kata bdk kecik tak boleh make up, tapi kenapa diorg make up?..adoiii pening mak! Last² i banned diorg from watching those channels!
So I understand too well & respect your decision and pray you all the happiness in life.
Yes. I am eliminating the source of my lack of focus in life ni. Cuba istiqomah. Hahaha
DeleteThe toxicity is real. I do feel the same abt apa yg sis ckp pasal comparing life.
ReplyDeleteBut still we do respect ur decision. Stay blogging k. Rindu lah selfie 7suku, rindu laundry drama & rindu jelitapunyareview.
Love, @queenbalkidz
Rindu you jugakk!!! Thanks for understanding. May we both stay true on our paths. Hugs.
