Social networks have an impact on people's mental health.
How social networks affect a person's mental health
Social media releases dopamine, the feel-good hormone.
When the hormone is released from enjoyable activities, a person develops a habit.
Therefore, people often become addicted to social networks.
For some, this can be a real problem as it takes a lot of time and effort.
In addition, social networks can negatively affect your attitude, self-esteem and self-confidence.
Sometimes you can encounter bullying and ridicule on the Internet.
Some people compare themselves and their lives to others, which makes them feel bad about themselves.
Social media can be unsafe for people with depression as it can worsen a person's symptoms and condition.
Social media also often increases anxiety levels and symptoms of mental disorders.
In addition, social media often causes sleep disorders and insomnia due to strong emotions and blue light from the screen.
Social networks can be especially dangerous for the immature brain and psyche of children and adolescents.
Therefore, it is worth limiting the time and content on social networks for children and adolescents as much as possible.
