Social media allows us to stay connected with distant family and friends or access valuable information, but it can also have a negative effect on people. It can be addictive, lead to feelings of isolation and expose us to harmful content which can contribute to anxiety and depression. We recommend spending more time offline, and engage with friends and family.
