Social media offers great ways to connect with people and to get lots of information, but it also has downsides. It’s easy to stay in touch with friends and family and to find many things that have or show your interests. However, social media can be addictive and risky for privacy. Cyberbullying and the spread of fake news are very common all over, it might even make you feel anxious or compare yourself to others too much. Social media can even affect a persons physical or mental well being. Being aware of both the good and bad helps you use social media in a healthy way. Although, taking some time off of social media can also be a good idea to some who are having a hard time.
