This cult will revolve against deleting social media apps for bettering our mental, emotional, and our physical state of mind. In modern times a lot of of people in society suffer from depression, anxiety, and insecurities due to social media which lead to thoughts of self harm. Social media creates a toxic environment with unrealistic beauty standards, unrealistic lifestyles, and makes a normal person feel not good enough. People also tend to get addicted to social media apps, which is bad and forget about what life is with out a device. Cutting off social media will better people’s self esteem, make them not only happier but healthier. With no social media people will have more time to realize who they really are and what other hobbies they like that don’t consist technology.
The leader will be a phycologist or a mental health advisor, someone who has experience in what the human mind is and how it works. The rules of the cult is :
-No social media apps allowed at all, if you break this rule you’re automatically out of the cult.
-A time limit will be put on everybody’s phone so that, we rely on our phone less for entertainment or comfort.
-A recorded log of physical activities that are done daily, to see improvement on how life is with out social media. One physical activity a day will need to reached.
– You will have to meet with a therapist or friend (someone you trust) once a week to communicate your struggles or improvement with, once someone verifies you are in a good state of mind it won’t be needed anymore.
-You will have to notify the leader from the group ways that helped you not re download social media, so that other people From the cult can try.
-If you break these rules or don’t follow them, you will have too pay back a big amount of money for the waste of time and resources that were spent, which is why before joining you will sign a contract to avoid any problem that comes with anyone not following the rules.
This cult will meet once a week, in a reserved yoga center to talk and practice mindfulness. I will recruit followers by first creating some marketing Strategies like a logo. Then I will talk about this cult with people I already know and ask them to help me spread the word, to the people they know. I will put signs up on the streets with my logo for my cult and offer a peace gift, perhaps some food to captivate someone’s eye. You should join to make yourself a better you!

Hi Kimberly,
I think your cult is interesting, I usually associate cults with for lack of a better word, stupid or unrealistic ideologies. However, cutting out social media would be a cult that I look at as self-improvement and it would positively impact our mental health. The rules aren’t overly strict, they are reasonable and the fine would help to keep them in line. I find your cult convincing enough to join at some point in my life.
