The Truth Behind Social Media and Teen Anxiety. 👁️

Many teenagers today spend hours scrolling through social media every day. We believe that social media is one of the main reasons why more teens are experiencing anxiety and depression. It affects how we see ourselves and how we think others see us. When we keep comparing our lives to what we see online, it makes us feel like we are not good enough. A study from the Pew Research Center showed that teens who use social media for several hours a day often feel more anxious and sad.

Some people say that social media is not the problem because it helps us connect with friends, share our thoughts, and learn new things. They believe it can be a safe space for people to express themselves and find support when they feel alone.

While that may be true, too much time on social media usually does more harm than good. Even if it connects us to others, it also exposes us to bullying, pressure to look perfect, and fake standards. In the end, many teens end up comparing themselves and feeling worse. That’s why we think we should use social media more responsibly and take breaks when we need to. Protecting our mental health is more important than getting likes or followers.
