We all Deactivate Our FB account at some point in time for some reason or other. I did it for the first time about a month ago the reason Being An exam I was appearing in a months time together with utter frustration that culminated from the Fact that I didn't have any updates of any form as My work life , the insane commute and weekend Studies left me with no time.
SO I decided instead of wasting time there and brooding over the sad facts I have the power to deactivate it and Make it little easy for myself , I know people who have never had a fb account and were still alive and pretty normal .
I go to the settings , answer the Reason why I wish to deactivate My account which was simple - I waste too much time here though I wish they had more realistic Answer which could read something like this - I have no updates and I have better things to do in life then to just check Peoples time-line and feel sad ,Nevertheless I deactivated.
A week went by and Yay I was still alive ,no signs of depression Either . During the week I did pick my phone in free time and searched for this App which would give me a doze on Monotony of my life only to realize it didn't exist anymore , I still didn't feel my phone is all Useless now.
In the Process I have discovered Few things , pretty basic though:
1) It doesn't Kill you : Its just an app after all, it wont make an iota difference in your life , it just another Habit , A routine.
2)You ll have Enough Spare Time: Now that my exam is over and Still there is no Fb , I use that spare time to Well Read , sleep a little longer .We do waste a lot of time there and according to a study An Average Indian FB user Spends 4 Hours a Month on Fb alone!
3)You wont have access to peoples Life you don't care/Know well as result You wont feel horrible even if your life is Simple monotonous journey without any promotions, travel, Engagements etc cetera.
On the Other hand :
1) You wont get to see many offers on the sites you might have been following otherwise
2) You will miss on quite a few birthdays, Anniversary's , new born and Event Invites
3) And if this is your source of World News well then.. Good LuCk
And yes That would be all .
I am not against FB or any social Media PLatform ,After all we need to Move ahead and Accept these changes , its helpful in many aspects and mean not only harm. But We have forgotten where to draw the line, Its suppose to be a platform to interact with people But we started to compare our lives which is the reason of most of the troubles( it all applies to me as well )
They didn't know of the impact it would make on an Individuals life , neither did we weigh the Consequences.
I would want to get back my account, few more days maybe. But it did teach me that I need to learn to Use it just as Platform for Interaction /little knowledge sharing and Nothing more, that my life is as good and there is no point of sulking over Monotony which is short lived and Much needed sometimes.
Whats your experience like Without FB?
