What are Some of the Negative Effects of Excessive Social Media Use?

According to Natasha Varela, director and therapist at The Family Institute at Northwestern: “University Researchers who studied data on more than 10,000 adolescents found frequent social media use disproportionately affects teen girls’ mental health more negatively than that of teen boys.

“While this may seem like a side effect of a generation addicted to their phones, the answer isn’t as simple as logging off. Despite the harmful consequences, many teen girls continue to use these digital platforms out of fear of missing out.”

Also, a 2018 report from Pew Research indicates that girls have noticeably different behaviors when using social media and are more likely than boys to post about their personal beliefs, feelings, and problems.

Some of the negative effects of social media on teens–and on teen girls particularly–include:

  • Cyberbullying
  • Depression
  • Suicide
  • Negative body image

Fortunately, the legal system offers parents and teens–accompanied by the right legal team–the opportunity to hold these social media giants accountable for creating an atmosphere that often drives families to destruction.
