We, teenagers, socialmedia becomes part of our lives. We used this as inspiration and
entertaiment. It has useful ability which allow as to communicate with others, to our families and
friends who lives in distant places and can access informations in just one click. Also, using social media
has it's effects depend on how we used it either good or bad. We create accounts in social media for
some reasons.

Social media is a big platform that is utilized by billions of people, some of them are teenagers
who's starting to grow and open their minds to see the real world on what is really happening in his/her
surroundings. In social media, you are free to post anything you want, so many people are influenced to
use this platform including teenagers, but not to communicate also to post an updates about them like
their achievements, photos and videos. But everyone has different perceptions even your friend on
social media that can lead to judgement and cuberbullying because they are jealous on what others
have and achieved. Also, they are posting fake informations to discredit others so they will linked to
mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, self harm, stress and suicidal thoughts. On the
other hand, it has also good effects on teenagers because social media for them is inspiration because of
the people who has a good heart and intention that keeps giving positive thoughts by sharing
inspirational quotes and messages to teenagers who has problems and chaotic mind.

Social Media has a big impact in our lives especially to teenagers. Even though it has good or bad
effects to teenagers still, it depends to our intention on how we used it because I believed social media
is for connection not for bad intention.
