The link between social media relationships and our mental health

[eLdavis]

Social media has made it a lot easier to reach out to our loved ones no matter the distance or time zone, it helps create a zone for emotional support, it is also a place to find like minded persons that can be of benefit to your mental well-being. Has social media affected your mental health in anyway?

Social media relationships can affect mental health both positively and negatively. I’ve seen how online support feels uplifting, but comparison, rejection, or miscommunication can trigger anxiety or low self-esteem.
