"The Good and the Bad: How Social Media Affected Me as a Gen Z Individual"
Social media affects me as a generation z individual in both negative and positive way. Considering that I spend almost the whole day on the internet and almost forgot to do my usual stuff to do at home but I do recommend staying active on one's health than spending all your hours behind a screen which would be unhealthy. Plus this generation is full of people who compete in social media for likes and attention. It influences me by depending on the internet, highly engaged to social media to the point that it makes me lazy, the different side of me begins to appear as the result of playing too much online games and it affects my relationship with my family and friends by not giving them enough time. Additionally, social media changes our attitude and the way we think, it is because of what we read and see online.
But on the brighter side, it helps me to understand more about how technology works and makes my life more convenient somehow particularly when I need to seek an information because there are some words that I'm lacking at and whether if it's accurate or not, and other many things that I've experienced by the use of it. Also, its good or positive side is that we Gen Z individuals, sees social media as a way to connect both to our friends and to a more diverse group of people. Eighty-nine percent of Gen Z teens surveyed said that social media helped them interact with people from different backgrounds and experience; it helped them gain access to different points of view and helps them show their support for causes and issues that are important to them, which is mostly true to our part. Let us all control ourselves in using these platforms to avoid addiction and health problems, caused by too much usage.
