People are always comparing themselves to influencers which leads to the feeling of being inadequate

Social media has a tendency to perpetuate misunderstandings and stigmatization of mental health. Misinformation or oversimplification of complex issues can harm those who struggle with mental health conditions, making them feel misunderstood or invalidated.

The impact of social media on mental health is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it offers opportunities for connection, support, and education. On the other hand, it can exacerbate feelings of loneliness, anxiety, and depression.
