Social media nowadays has become something that is an inseparable part of our lives. It has become a source of a lot of things because initially it was supposed to be a place where information can be gained as well as connections can be made. Still, today it is much more than that because it has such a big audience that can be connected in just a few seconds. That power is insane because people have to have their influence over a huge chunk of the population of the entire world. That ability is quite powerful and its scary at the sit's time as well.
Social media has surely defined the way we communicate because previously it was much more different than what it is today we see a lot of basic differences between the ways we are using to communicate as the perspective about communication has changed quite a lot and it is all a contribution from the side of social media. Along with that, there is an increased amount of entertainment that can be pursued from social media itself because today in the digital Lifestyle which we all are living social media plays a very integral role in that in all terms whether it be gaining information enjoyment or any other sort of aspect that we look to seek because social media has everything.
One of the best things about social media is that it allows us to stay connected with friends and family and every single person that we want to be connected with across the world as well as also the ability to be finding like find people around the world as well because in life we often move ahead and there are a lot of such people who stay left behind such as old school friends or something like that and they are often found in media as you have heard a lot of such stories where I found one of my oldest school friends through social media again after gap of maybe 5 or 6 years.
Along with this fact, it also gave people an opportunity to interact with influences as well as celebrities as well because it was a feeling that people used to think about celebrities that they are very much uncontactable and they are only on screens but we are big fans of them and we definitely would love to meet them or interact with them in some other way and that is what social media these days allows us because there are a lot of people who are interacting with the celebrities on a very frequent basis as they hold up a lot of meet up as well as also online sessions where France can be interacting with them through different means and that is a great advantage that social media has to offer as well.
But as everything that exists in everything has its negative aspect as well which is something that pulls it back slightly and social media also has it as you can see on social media there are a lot of such aspects that are going to be something that you would like to avoid and one of the top things of that been the fake news Because a lot of people try to influence the stream and such a man which they want people to believe in that is how fake news starts and also you must spread it can be extremely dangerous as we have seen as a lot of examples in the passes well because they can create a sense of anxiety among people which is something that no one would want.
Another very big downside of social media is that the people who are active on the platform often feel that it is going to be necessary to stay connected with other people as well the peer pressure that comes with the constant comparison of people among themselves also adds up to the mental health issues because it is always going to be putting stress on them. After all, people always see the curated lives of other people that can be comparing themselves to them and that is going to surely put pressure on their health as well for sure because that is something which is always going to be going on as the endless Quest of validation that is only met through likes and comments and the number of metrics of interactions on the post that you do social media.
If you ask me what impact social media has had on my life personally then I would say that there is no perfect answer a yes or no because there have been a lot of such instances where I feel that social media did save me or was a great help as it existed and a lot of such examples is well when I felt that it would have been great social media never existed so it is always going to be a mixed bag of experience for me but it is something that is a great tool to have and can be extremely helpful in a lot of situations but also a lot of such situations can arise when we should sting a bit away from it as there are a lot of such as pets in existence on these platforms.
