Social Media Makes You Less Happy





Is Facebook making you feel down? A new study links the social media to feeling sad and depressed.
Users who become dependent on social media suffer from many adverse effects including academic, financial, occupational, relationship and physical problems.

Among students, the most obvious impairment is merely academic as they stay up late at night on their social media sites, neglecting to sleep, resulting in sleep deprivation.

According to Psychology Today, “Looking at happy pictures of others on Facebook gives people an impression that others are always happy and having good lives.” – Hui-Tzu Grace Chou.

From social media detox to loosing negative thoughts, there are simple and easy steps to make social media usage a positive and healthy experience.
