“USE SOCIAL MEDIA WISELY, DON’T LET THEM CONSUME YOU”
Living in a modern era must be too sophisticated and convenient for us nowadays. We can access to what we want to have and know in just a click.
However, these social media that we have, without our knowing, gradually consume us and altering our own state of mind.
Moreover, these Social media bring not just a good impact but also bring unhealthy impacts to our thoughts, behaviors and emotions. Hence, these would influence or even change our habits for example, our eating habits (Millard, 2020). Social media contains various content or platforms that may seem good for us or bad as well. One of the example is Cyber bullying. Cyber bullying has its immense toxicity that affects one human’s mentality. It may also cause Chronic stress, Anxiety and lastly Depression.
Our Mental Health as well as Emotional Health are the vital part of our life and these are part of the five aspects of our Holistic health. Our mental health encompasses our psychological, emotional and social well-being whereas emotional health promote productivity and effectiveness in activities like work, school or care-giving (Xong, 2018).
In conclusion, Social Media is very useful and beneficial because it lessens the hardships of work but, we must utilize these Social media prudently and use it for important matters only. Our Real world is more significant than our Virtual world. Stick to something that has positivity and have a good riddance of negativity as well as toxicity.
