You're only seeing the highlight of the life of these people. You'll never see their real self, never see their real personality and you'll never see this person's problems. Everything is perfect online, and it makes us feel so inferior and worthless.
Girls usually follow girls on Instagram who had plastic surgery and photoshop their photos. These girls develop self-esteem issues, especially if they started using social media at an early age.
Boys usually start to follow seemingly successful men. These men build their business on your insecurity, be it a pick up artist coach who wants to give you false hopes and sell his product thanks to your insecurity, or be it a crypto online coach who also just plays with your emotions and tells you it's possible to go from a dishwasher to a millionaire, which is often not that simple.
Then there are boys who follow guys like Dan Bilzerian, who aren't even trying to help, but are just flexing on us.
The use of social media even gets worse if you're an active poster. You'll look for likes, and if you get them, you'll get addicted and develop a fake persona online to get even more likes. If you do not get them, you'll feel like shit.
I've had some times in my life I did not use social media and I felt better. Then again, if you use social media wisely and follow the right people, it will actually enhance the quality of life. But realistically, you'd need a strong will power, since most of the time we only use social media as a form of escapism and procrastination.
I've recently noticed a shift in the YouTube community. While there are a lot of YouTubers who vlog their "perfect life", there are now YouTubers who actively try to be edgy and weird to appeal to these girls who have previously been turned into self-esteem lacking ones. The YouTubers, such as Joana Ceddia, ANJA, and many more, wear weird clothes, don't use make up, are below average looking, and decide to keep their videos low quality by using a bad microphone and a bad camera despite having enough money for ideal quality (3 million subscribers). Then there's Alivia D'Andrea, a girl who had really bad acne, who documents her glow up story, which generates a lot of viewers.
These insecure girls are finally able to see themselves in that person. This is the only YouTube niche that applies to girls where looks is not the most important factor.
Anywhere else on social media, looks is #1.
We gain nothing from social media in the end.
All the information we need for life we could look up in a few hours, but yet we spent months or years in our life on the Internet.
Even worse than social media are websites such as bestgore. I like watching these videos because I'm curious, but after watching shit like that I feel so bad and my social anxiety is really bad again.
I will limit my Internet/social media usage to 2 hours a day from now on.
I will only follow meme pages. I will only use YouTube to watch documentaries and some funny entertaining YouTubers.
This will greatly benefit my mental health.
