Social media
Social media- One of the most important traits in this everyday life. This stuff contains both advantages and disadvantages. As a teenager , I must say this. I have a lot of uses with social media, especially instagram. But my parents made me stop it. But I really miss those people whom i was chatting with and i miss the stories , memes and everything on it.instagram helped me to get in contact with my friends even they sent my notes through it. I always loved it until I found that I had a strange addiction towards it. I mean , ‘what if my friends just text me’, ‘omg i need to check.’ then i found it myself that i have an addiction towards it. People have lived before instagram too...people lived before google, facebook, twitter, snapchat and everything. They were so happy with their lives. They were attached to their family and they collected information from the newspapers and books but this generation didn't even touch it . I'm not saying that the internet is a cancer, but it has an ability to change our lives. It's very dangerous. Once it becomes our schedule, we can't do anything that's essential for our daily life. We will be on to our phone , we will be living in an entirely different world that social media wants to show us.
These days,we are acting like we can't live without social media, ‘if we are out of it, our life is over’ ..what!? Seriously ? it doesn't even make any sense. We had a good life before and we were happy about our life. But now, our addiction makes us unhappy, we can't click a picture without a filter, we can't stay for a day without texting someone and we are being a toy for social media. They are using us. People who made these apps never thought that they are gonna make all the people as a toy. But now they know it, they really need to change it. Real world is more beautiful than that. Look around and you’ll get addicted to this world .
Another disadvantage of social media is that they have fake news more than real news. Fake news spreads like a forest fire and everyone will be sharing that faster before they get to know that it wasn't real.likes and dislikes makes addiction too. People will be curious to know how much likes they got for the post that they posted an hour ago or 30 minutes ago. They will be checking continuously and it will waste their time. Mobile phones are such an addiction . There are so many kids who act like they have mental disorders if they didn't get the phone. they ‘ll become violent and they even break the things that they’ll see in their eyes. This will make their parents worried and they will even make their kids consult a psychiatrist.
But still I'm saying mobile phones or social media are not that bad. It has good sides too. During this pandemic , social media is helping us really well .I can't stop writing without saying thanks to google meet and zoom. Google classroom is such a wonderful thing. As a student , all these apps are really important for me and I will say it anywhere and every other app is good too until you get addicted . open your eyes and just look around , it's beautiful out here.
