Fact about social media

[nsidibe]

Human beings are social creatures. We need the companionship of others to thrive in life, and the strength of our connections has a huge impact on our mental health and happiness. Being socially connected to others can ease stress, anxiety, and depression, boost self-worth, provide comfort and joy, prevent loneliness, and even add years to your life. On the flip side, lacking strong social connections can pose a serious risk to your mental and emotional health.

One of the worst thing about social media is FOMO, fear of missing out. This is hugely affecting people, especially Gen Z. This has not only increased spending habit but even created depression and anxiety issues.

That is true, social networks create too many expectations and hype sometimes, FOMO is one of the great evils, also the great deployment of dopamine generated by interactions on social networks and these are developed so that you generate more and more dopamine the more you use the social network, since the algorithm of modern social networks usually rewards the most active users.
