Right from the start of time, i have been able to see how a lot of people handle the internet and also this took me back to those periods of our forefathers when there was nothing like technology and the way of living has been so cool and interesting, people cope a lot and also enjoy that moment about life but they do say that the world evolves and those period are not like now again where technology has overthrown the world and not just the technology overthroning the world but the technology keeps on upgrading every day and this has made things so easy to use and also access. The invention of technology has birthed a ot of things and that is where social media comes in.
There is no organisation or company and individual who doesn't use the social media and bringing this kind of topic for the initiative is a very big and nice one for me because that will definitely give one the opportunity to talk more, so talking about the impact of social media on the mental health, that has a lot of meaning because that is dealing with the overall upkeep of a person. Mental health in otherworld is a vital aspect of ones well being which is actually dealing with emotions and also the psychological aspect. Social media has a lot of impact on the mental health either positive or negative and one will surely be more than the other.
Some of the positive effect which social media has on the mental health is the opportunity of connecting with other people and also help to fill in the spaces of loneliness, social media has made it possible for some introvert who doesn't really make friends in reality but they are very outspoken on social media and most of them have lot of friends online which has kept the boring life away from them, if not for social media boredom would have been the partner of a lot of people. Not only the fact that social media help from been lonely, it has also served as office to most business owners. I see some people who sell clothes online and they use the social media as a means to publicize their product which is a fast means of reaching out to people. Now I will be talking about the negative effect of social media.
One of the major problem associated with social media this period is addiction, The generation we are now cant do without operating a phone, some cant even stay without a phone for 24 hours and now coming back to social media, A determined man wont wanted to go for a check online and never had the intention of staying long there but on the search he came across something almost related to his search and he decided to watch then also left the real purpose of coming to the social media to check and end up checking various videos before knowing, time has gone and wasted on unnecessary things which the social media entails. Social media has pros and cons but knowing how to go about it will really help a lot.
