SOCIAL MEDIA AND YOU


            left out because you couldn’t join them due to another
            commitment.

            This anxietyis constantly fueled bythe content youcome
            across on social media. The more you use social media,
            the more likely it is that you will come across someone
            who is now having a better time than you are.This is the
            source of the worry about missing out (FOMO).


            17. Expectationsthat Cannot be Fulfilled
            The majority of people are probably aware that using
            social media can lead to the formation of unrealistic
            expectations about life and friendships in one’shead.

            The vast majority of social media platforms are severely
            lacking in online authenticity. People will write on
            Facebook about how much they adore their significant
            other, and if they use Instagram, they will fill their
            Instagram profile with heavily staged photographs.

            In reality, there is no way for you to tell whether or not
            this is all a charade. Evenif everything appears to be in
            order on the surface, the person in question could be
            drowning in debt, their relationship with their significant
            other could be on the rocks, and they could be seeking
            validation through their Instagram likes.


            18. A Poor Self-image of One’sBody

            Whenit comes to Instagram celebrities,it’s worth noting
            that if you look through some of the most popular
            Instagram accounts, you’ll see very beautiful people
            posing in expensive clothing on their well-proportioned
            bodies.
