    Banks: The Relationship of Social Media and Mental Health Among College

    The Epidemic of the Social Media and Mental


    Health Relationship Among College Students
    By: Olivia Banks
    Mental health disorders has been around before social media, however the
    obsession of social media destroys college students’ mental health. Over the past
    decade, social media has grown as a platform to promote a person, place, and/or idea.
    Social media platforms, such as Facebook and Instagram, develop a sense of community
    for online users. Social media depletes endorphins in the brain by negatively comparing
    themselves to others. Social media plays into emotions and how people behave or act
    out. Social media increases anxiety by always wondering what other people think of
    them.
