In this episode of How to Twenty-Something, I discuss the significant influence of social media on modern life as a twenty-something year old, emphasizing both its benefits and drawbacks. I share personal experiences and observations about the growing trend of detachment from social media, threats to your mental health when overconsuming, and how to have a balanced relationship with all of the different forms of social media. I specifically note that social media isn’t all bad, but it is important to develop an awareness around how it’s impacting your life, thoughts, and actions.

Key Takeaways:

• Social media gives you a distorted view of reality
• Do you tie your self-worth to your view count or likes?
• Ways to begin detaching yourself from the negative influences social media possesses
• Bringing online connections to real life
• The benefits and consequences of social media
• How to set boundaries with your social media addiction
