I've uninstalled TikTok to unfuck my brain

I've said on here before that I spend hours each day walking around listening to the same 20-30 tiktok edits and self inserting into them. I know it sounds retarded but I've been addicted to doing this for years now. Whenever I get home from such a walk, my brain feels fried and I don't feel like doing anything. It must've made me slightly more schizo.

I uninstalled TikTok about 48 hours ago and I'm getting withdrawals. The real test will come whenever I walk past somebody I used to know in the past, like an old classmate. They will have a normal interaction with me, then I will overanalyze it and convince myself that they must've thought I was a retarded loser, and I will get a crazy urge to self-insert into a cool edit to compensate.

Going for a walk in these past 48hrs has allowed me to have more cohesive inner dialogue, I feel more peaceful and like I can produce better thought. Though I still mostly daydream.

Here's a thread I made a year ago about how things like music must be crazy taxing on our bodies:
 
I do that too, even bookmark and rewatch some of the edits. There are some gems in that app
 
In my whole life, I’ve probably spent like 3 hours max on TikTok. Even Chinese TikTok is straight trash, literally soft porn. Everyone thought Xi tamed the algorithm to block Western garbage, but it's a total myth
 
I can't believe someone that doesn't like their life can truly Escape doomscrolling
If not tik tok it will be reels, if not reels yt shorts, if not ytshorts then snapchat reels but I would probably rather kill myself than use that
 
it's too late
 
Thank god i never installed that shit
 
I doomscroll .is only. No goy media for now
 
I have never used TikTok.

How does it stunt your brain development? I do lots of math and watch long form videos sometimes to not endlessly rot on tiktok. My teacher told me that social media is causing holes in peoples brains. I do not believe this. She is old and has probably fallen for some misinformation online.

Should I stop watching it too?
 
I deleted Twitter instead, my screen time on there is absurd and all it does is rape my brain. I was parasocially checking strangers accounts to follow their life, that’s how I knew that I was too far gone

anything that has non stop dopamine driven feedback loops like tiktok, insta etc is proven to cause brain damage, for my case i had unlimited access to my phone during puberty and i ended up having no attention span and struggled with basic math but of course doing mental activities can mitigate some of it
 
ive recently uninstalled tiktok too
