About make up for lost time
Welcome to Make up for Lost Time, a personal project based in Ploiesti, Romania, dedicated to helping adolescents like you reclaim your time from social media and discover the joys of real-world activities. We want you to prioritize life beyond the screen.
Why make up for lost time?
Our biggest concerns with social media include its impact on mental health – anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, loneliness, and constant comparison. We also worry about privacy, the spread of misinformation, cyberbullying, addiction, and the pressure to keep up with ever-changing algorithms. We understand the challenges of managing your time and maintaining an online presence.
Our unique approach
Make up for Lost Time stands out by providing clear information and a variety of engaging activities designed to reduce your screen time. We encourage you to participate in community events, read books, explore painting, and connect with others through meaningful conversations. We are here to help you discover the many fulfilling alternatives to social media.
Our mission
Our mission is simple: to empower you to free your time from the grip of social media and TikTok. We want you to experience the richness of life through community involvement, literature, art, and genuine human connection. It's time to prioritize your well-being and create a life that's more fulfilling than any social media feed.
