Social Media and Mental Health: a New Study

A recent study has shed light on the potential negative impact of excessive social media use on our mental health. Researchers found that limiting daily social media consumption to just 30 minutes can significantly reduce the risk of depression and loneliness.

A recent study found those who spent more than two hours per day on social media platforms were significantly more likely to report symptoms of depression and loneliness compared to those who limited their usage to 30 minutes or less.

The researchers attributed these findings to the potential for social media to foster feelings of social comparison, isolation, and negative self-evaluation. The results of this study highlight the importance of mindful social media consumption. By setting limits on the time spent on social media and engaging in activities that promote real-world connections, individuals can improve their mental health and well-being.
