Digital Wellbeing Resources

Prioritizing Your Wellbeing

At Qerios, we believe that your time spent online should be enriching, not draining. Social media is a tool for connection and creativity, but it is important to remember that real life happens offline. We want to support you in maintaining a healthy, balanced relationship with Qerios and your digital life as a whole.

Our Promise: Your mental health is more important than your feed. We encourage you to use Qerios in a way that serves your happiness and personal growth.

Tips for a Healthy Online Experience

Social media can sometimes feel overwhelming. Here are some strategies to keep your digital wellbeing a priority:

• Curate Your Feed: You have the power to decide what you see. Follow accounts that inspire or educate you, and feel free to mute or unfollow accounts that negatively impact your mood.
• Practice Mindful Scrolling: Be aware of how much time you spend on the app. If you find yourself scrolling mindlessly, take a break. A quick walk or offline activity can do wonders for your focus.
• Be Kind to Yourself: Don't compare your behind-the-scenes life to everyone else's highlight reel. Everyone has bad days, and social media often presents an idealized version of reality.
• Set Clear Boundaries: You don't have to be "always on." It is perfectly healthy to turn off notifications, take digital detox breaks, or set specific times of the day for checking your messages.

When to Take a Break

Sometimes, the best interaction with a social platform is stepping away from it. If you notice any of the following, consider taking a break from Qerios:

• Feeling anxious, stressed, or inadequate while using the platform.
• Prioritizing social interactions online over sleep, real-world relationships, or responsibilities.
• Feeling overwhelmed by the volume of questions or comments in your inbox.

Taking a break isn't giving up—it’s an act of self-care. Your account will be waiting for you when you feel ready to return.

Seeking Support

If you are struggling with your mental health, please know that you are not alone. While Qerios is a social platform, it is not a substitute for professional support. If you are feeling overwhelmed, please reach out to trusted friends, family, or local mental health professionals in your area.
