It’s crucial to keep a balanced use of technology.
Unplug to take a break from it all.
Set a time limit on the apps you use most, or get a friend to remind you to stop scrolling.
Have lunch with your family.
Catch up with friends.
Go take a hike.
Even taking some time for yourself to shower, listen to a podcast, or read a book.
You can have nice things.
And social media is only one of them until it’s not.
How about practicing a little online self-care?
In this first week of Mental Health Awareness Month, the kind folks over at Trill will be reminding us of good mental health practices for our time online. We’ll be taking a closer look at toxicity in social media, how to keep it real by avoiding overly glossy or unrealistic representation, and what a meaningful online connection can look like. Follow along for the journey, and be sure to check out Trill’s Tumblr, where you can find out more them and the work they do.
How do interesting and meaningful conversations happen online, you ask? Here are a few tips!
Ask open-ended questions With open-ended questions about neutral topics like favorite media or recent events, your new friend will be more inclined to share their experiences and opinions on mutual topics.
Actively listen to their answers Show them you care by being engaged in the conversation and remembering details about their side of the conversation. Use these details to ask thoughtful follow-up questions or to relate to them.
Be enthusiastic While this is much easier said than done, a little enthusiasm goes a long way. If you don’t seem interested in the conversation, your new friend might feel hurt and excuse themself from the conversation. Although these conversations might feel stressful, think of them as an opportunity to learn more about different perspectives and experiences. Try your best to express your enthusiasm and your new friend will surely notice!
Don’t let awkwardness steer you away Meeting new people can be awkward, especially when it’s hard to find common ground. Those awkward moments where you stumble over your words or when it’s uncomfortably silent are inevitable. Instead of pulling back after experiencing one of these moments, don’t be afraid to push onward and bring up a new conversation topic to explore. That being said, know your limits. If a conversation becomes too uncomfortable and you are no longer enjoying the conversation, it is always acceptable to excuse yourself and attempt to connect another time.
