There are all different types of addiction, such as substance and behavioral. But today, I focus, specifically, on social media addiction. I’ll cover many aspects of this all-too-common and debilitating issue — from how it affects us to what we should be doing about it. As part of the solution, I invite you to participate in my new challenge, “The Social Media Habit Refresh.”
You’ll find out:
- The definition of addiction per ASAM (American Society of Addiction Medicine)
- The idea of becoming a Social Media Minimalist
- The books that changed and impacted my views on screen time and social media
- What is MED (per, Tim Ferriss)
- What most studies show about the time spent on social media
- Why more of a good thing isn’t necessarily a good thing
- What’s really going on when you don’t feel like there are enough hours in the day
- What is solitude deprivation
- My personal social media refresh
- The public declaration I’m asking you to do
- What are low quality / low return activities and why you must schedule them
- Why / how I’m scheduling my time on social
- My current season (and why it’s similar to when my kids were small)
