All of my social media accounts were being hacked constantly, so in 2017, I deactivated Facebook and cancelled my Instagram and Twitter accounts. Not only was I tired of political talk 24/7 but seeing friends argue over politics on my timeline was pretty much the last straw.
Unfortunately, many of the companies I deal with use social media platforms so I reactivated Facebook and created new Twitter & Instagram accounts in the past few weeks because I was missing out on a lot of pertinent info.
I've basically unfollowed 2/3rd of my Facebook "friends" (most of whom I haven't seen or spoken to in decades) and just use it for those important music-business related accounts, but I've yet to post and have zero plans to interact on that particular platform.
Oh, and back to the topic: I definitely felt far less stress once I deactivated all of them. It was like a weight lifted from my shoulders.
