Few people are convinced that social media services have adverse effects on either individual or public. I completely agree with the statement, because social browsing has more cons than pros. This essay will enlighten the negative sides of the media on the person as well as the civilization and also the reasons for my view.
The unhealthy impacts of social platform on an individual are mainly, increase of peer pressure, addiction, and risk of being conned by the false information that is spread on the sites. Let’s see how peer pressure is developed in an individual. If a person in browsing over the media and watching all the things shared about others lifestyle, he/she will gradually compare himself with others who barely know him which in turn will lead to depression and also foster to engage in either self-harm or criminal thoughts, just to be acknowledged and respected in the community.
Another important outcome of its usage is addiction. These days many of the teenagers are interested in getting more likes, subscribers, comments etc., than others which is leading to” win at all costs attitude” weather by uploading inappropriate content or by posting wrong information. Because of this misleads society is being robbed in away or other. Every now and the, we are coming across an article on news regarding cyber trafficking and online frauds just because of blind trusts on what-ever information that is posted on the internet.
Despite of all this negativity, there are few positive impacts of social media such as study related contents are provided, can obtain up to the minute news. So, by limiting the browsing time, and sharing what is relevant online and trusting only the entrusted channels can reduce the ill impacts on this society.

(Example) These days most of school kids have easy access to any websites for school assignments but a decade back school kids and adults goes to Library to read, gather information from authorized source only.
First and foremost, social media has a profound negative impact on creativity. Nowadays, both school children and adults have a reduced ability to generate ideas, think critically, and analyze information properly. For instance, in the past, school children and adults had to visit libraries to access authorized sources for their assignments. However, nowadays, they have easy access to any website, which may not always provide reliable information. – How is this related to social media use?
Secondly, misinformation about the real world, for example: Some news media give false information to influence political opinions and spread untrue information to fool audiences, creating confusion, violence among general people.
– Clarity and Coherence:
Some sentences in the essay lack clarity and coherence. Paragraphing and structure should be right.-Language Usage:
The essay would benefit from more precise and formal language. Some
sentences contain informal or colloquial language that may reduce the
overall academic tone. For example, “These days most of school kids have
easy access to any websites for school assignments” could be revised as
“Currently, many schoolchildren have unrestricted access to a wide
range of websites for their academic assignments.”– Grammatical errors.

Without a doubt, new technologies or what we can call social networking sites have impacted communications as well as relationships in many ways. From my perspective, it cannot be denied that social media these days has created a lot more negative impact than a positive one. Therefore, I am going to reflect my own view of such an issue in order to confirm my argument through this essay.
First and foremost, Social media exposes young children and adolescents to unrealistic standards that might force them to push themselves to a certain unnecessary extent. For instance, if a person uses filters that can make their skin brighter or clearer- with these tools anyone can become easy on the eyes, however that is not the real life. People when see all this on social media tend to believe all of this to be true and they can start having impractical expectations from themselves. This can often lead to body dysmorphia or even self-esteem issues.
Secondly, social media can create a false pretence, for not just kids but adults as well. It is extremely easy for everyone to anonymous on the internet and hence this can cause some serious security issues. It can basically open doors for predators.
To summarize, In my opinion social media is a powerful tool for the world to connect with each other. However it is imperative that it is used in a way that does not cause harm to anyone.
