Everything that has ever been evolved in the modern world comes with both the advantages and disadvantages.
The invention of social media is proving to be a bad thing as it continues to spread and also improve.It is damaging our lives and most people do not want to accept this, here is how.
We have become isolated human beings. Social media with the exclusion of communication between people makes us isolated and stay by ourselves and yet no man is an island. Some people even cut off communication with the world outside.They would rather be on Instagram or snap chat just checking things online or watch movies other than socialize with the outside world.
We start taking note of the wrong things and making the unimportant things a priority in our lives.Its very unfortunate that we forget about family and relationships with friends at the expense of social media.You would rather stay on your phone the whole day than spend time with family and involve yourself in other things.
We end up wasting a lot of time, it has been proven that social media is addictive.When we get into the internet we can stay in their for long hours and forget that we had other things to do.It also makes you want to live a life that is not yours as you are always comparingyour life to that of other people that you take keen of.
