Out of curiosity, why haven't she stopped using TikTok? It's an honest question.
Many years ago, I tried using Facebook. I few months later I decided it was causing distress, as political discussion among people I knew was reducing my respect for friends and acquaintances. My next logical action was to completely abandon Facebook. I didn't even bother to delete my account, I just removed the app and never browsed it again.
I always wonder why people keep using apps that distress them.
