Social media allows teens to create online identities, communicate with others and build social
networks. These networks can provide teens with valuable support, especially helping those who
entertainment and self-expression. And the platforms can expose teens to current events, allow them
experience exclusion or have disabilities or chronic illnesses. Teens also use social media for
to interact across geographic barriers and teach them about a variety of subjects, including healthy
behaviours. Social media that's humorous or distracting or provides a meaningful connection to peers
and a wide social network might even help teens avoid depression.
However, social media use can also negatively affect teens, distracting them, disrupting their sleep,
and exposing them to bullying, rumour spreading, unrealistic views of other people's lives and peer
pressure. The risks might be related to how much social media teens use. A 2019 study of more than
6,500 12- to 15-year-olds in the U.S. found that those who spent more than three hours a day using
social media might be at heightened risk of mental health problems. Another 2019 study of more than
12,000 13 to 16-year-olds in England found that using social media more than three times a day
predicted poor mental health and well-being in teens.
