I was wondering if the symbol ≁$\not\sim$ (i.e., not tilde) could be used to express that a random variable X$X$ is not distributed as a normal distribution with a mean of 0$0$ and variance of 1$1$. For instance, is this appropriate: X≁N(0,1) $$X\not\sim N(0,1)$$

Or is it more common to say: X is not X~N(0,1)$$X \text{ is not } X\sim N(0,1)$$

I need a way to express it in a symbolic form to be as succinct as possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
