Do you need to “unplug” from social media? [quiz]

“Unplugging” from social media does not necessarily equate to quitting.

“I went to bed on Instagram, I woke up on Instagram, and I most likely went to the bathroom looking at my Instagram. That’s why it had to stop. No object or person should have that type of stronghold on you” —Zooey, first year, evangelical Christian college
