Social media is very popular nowadays and has many users of all ages. Some fan-favorite apps are Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest. These can be helpful for learning new things but can also affect how people see themselves and how productive they can be in the world.

These social media apps help people express themselves and their interests. They have also helped people connect with others and learn how to cook certain dishes, plant in the garden, style new outfits, do makeup looks, and so much more. Not only do these apps teach people many new things, but they also help to market and advertise brands, which is a great way to make money and gain popularity.

One negative aspect of social media is that it can be addictive. Many people struggle with staying on task when they are on Pinterest or if they are watching a video on TikTok. This has caused ADHD to progress even more over the years of social media. Not only that, but these apps can cause insecurities when people compare themselves to models with filters or people with better features. Social media is deceiving, and it is hard to tell the difference between what is real and what is fake.

Though there are pros and cons to social media, it is still something that all people should enjoy by choice, but with self-control. By setting a timer on their phone, people can still get pleasure from scrolling but without going overboard and dwelling on things that are not realistic.
