It becomes very difficult for us to adjust to a world without social media because we spend so much time involved with it.

One of the things that makes a social-media cleanse so difficult is that every time we log on, every notification we get is an addictive substance. It's just like any drug.

We miss extra bits of knowledge that can add value to our lives. We sort of lack empathy because we're multitasking all the time.

If you can pinpoint the moments in social media that are really negative experiences, those are the ones you can cut out. And when you do, you recognize how much better your life is.

Each person can achieve balance by cutting a few things out and seeing how it goes. If you cut something out, and it goes well, and your life is better, you keep doing it.

I wouldn't say anyone is 100% honest online. I don't see how it's even possible.

I'm not a fan of the selfie. I think it's at the heart of the narcissism that social media brings into our lives.
