Excessive social media usage among adolescents has significant implications for their mental health and well-being. Studies suggest that prolonged exposure to social media can lead to increased feelings of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Cyberbullying, a prevalent issue on social platforms, can cause emotional distress and harm self-esteem. Social comparison, where adolescents compare themselves to idealized images online, may lead to negative self-perception and body image issues. Additionally, constant self-presentation and curating an online persona can create pressure to maintain a certain image, causing stress and identity-related challenges. To promote positive online experiences, strategies include fostering digital literacy and media literacy education, encouraging open communication with parents and educators about online challenges, implementing responsible social media guidelines, and promoting balanced usage with a focus on offline interactions and hobbies.
