Social media is everywhere, and a lot of it isn’t really real. Half of what people are posting is good and fun things and the other half doesn’t get included. It gives the illusion that life is always happy and wonderful, which isn’t true for anybody.
People alter their appearances with filters or photo editing software so that they look perfect or entirely different. This leads to insecurity and unhappiness because other people compare themselves with unrealistic images.
Social media is susceptible to disseminating misinformation as people reshare unconfirmed stories or “facts” The misinformation gets highlighted during important events or tragedies when people turn to social media for information.
Celebrities and influencers tend to act out their lives. Paid endorsements, grins, and photo opportunities distort reality and fantasy.
Social media is riddled with falsehoods. Not all that is on the internet is factual. Critical thinking and avoiding comparisons with internet images can safeguard our mental health and self-esteem.
