You spend hours on Facebook, Instagram, etc. Can social media make you paranoid?

Ironically for a technology that’s designed to bring people closer together, spending too much time engaging with social media can actually make you feel more lonely and isolated—and exacerbate mental health problems such as anxiety and depression.

When you are overwhelmed with household chores or parenting, you might turn to social media for entertainment or relaxation. It quickly turns into a negative experience, leaving you feeling doubtful about yourself, envious of others, and even depressed.

Just a few minutes on social media can negatively impact your mood and well-being. You are trying to relax. But your mind wanders and you are disturbed. This influences your personal life as you might transfer the negative vibes to your near and dear ones.

Seeing the “happy pics” posted by your friends, relatives, and colleagues does not truly make you happy. Do you feel good about it? Do these images sometimes irritate you and make your thoughts turn negative?

Envy kicks in when you see these women all dolled up and looking beautiful. A feeling of remorse sets in when you see their vacation posts. Social media filters and other editing tools may be the reason behind those perfect-looking snaps.

It still makes people feel insecure or inadequate. The Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) syndrome is a genuine psychological phenomenon.

You constantly check your phone for updates, even if it means sacrificing your sleep and neglecting your real-life relationships.

Social media platforms can become breeding grounds for harmful behavior, such as spreading rumors, lies, and abuse, which can cause deep emotional wounds that may never fully heal. Reddit.com being the worst offender.

Dear influencers, please try to be more authentic and transparent online. Create more genuine social media content. Try to share behind-the-scenes/glimpses of your life, be honest about your struggles and challenges, and do not conform to unrealistic beauty or lifestyle standards.

Dear users, Always bear in mind that most of the social media influencers are doing it for publicity and reach. For them, it is a source of income. They might not hesitate to capitalize on our insecurities.

Remember, nobody’s life is perfect as you see on social media!

They all have their ups and downs in life. Heart-breaks, self-doubts, and disappointments happen to them as well. But they choose not to share it online. It is always better to consume the content with a pinch of salt.
