📱💻✨ Webinar: Social Media and Mental Health

Understanding the Impact and Finding Balance

For students ages 15–21, social media isn’t just an app -it’s where friendships form, trends begin, and conversations unfold.

But behind the fun filters and viral content, there are real questions: How does all this scrolling, sharing, and comparing affect our mental health?

🌿 The Good:

• Building community & reducing stigma 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

• Access to information & resources 📑

• Creative self-expression 🎨

⚠️ The Challenges:

• Comparison culture & FOMO

• Cyberbullying & screen fatigue 📱

• Amplified anxiety & disconnection 🧠

🧭 The Balance:

• Be mindful of emotions after scrolling 🧘‍♀️

• Set screen-time limits ⏱️

• Take digital detoxes 📴

• Curate feeds with uplifting content—and talk about what you see online. 🗣️

Closing Thought: Social media isn’t inherently good or bad -it’s a tool. The impact depends on how we use it. With mindful boundaries, it can support (not sabotage) our well-being. ❤️
