According to National Center for Health Research surveys, the most popular social media platforms are YouTube (95%), TikTok (67%), Instagram (62%), Snapchat(59%), and Facebook (32%). There has been much talk on how the use of social media can be harmful to our mental health if not managed. Social media can disrupt our sleep, impact our cortisol levels, increase symptoms of anxiety, depression and loneliness. Social media can increase negative thoughts about ourselves if low self esteem and insecurities are pre-existing. Although social media can be educational and informative if the sources are legitimate, the cons are very much alive, especially for younger, impressionable generations, where looks and money seem to be threaded into views.
