(STEM 12 - GENESIS)|| In this Blog we will tell about how social media affects us and changes us in unsocial way. Social Media helps us socialize with others, but does it really connects us? en-us 2022-11-03 04:36:51 UTC 2022-11-03 16:07:25 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4f1.png magnayeshairakristine https://padlet.com/magnayeshairakristine/dthrigh9odp8l4e0/wish/2367835195 Social media is a tool that helps us communicate with others in a better or in a digitalized way. It refers to a computer-based technology that facilitates the methods of communication where individuals produce, share, and/or exchange information, interests, and ideas online. The idea behind it, was originally to connect people with their friends and families and communicate with anyone on Earth, or with many people at once. A powerful tool that is accessible for everyone, even a child, teen, adult, and senior can use it, if they know how to properly utilize it. If not, then it may take them to the unknown side of social media.

By observing the people around us, we can see the changes of human interactions by seeing that most of them are on their phones even when they are with their family, friends or significant others.

Even if it happens every time nothing will change the prolonged use of social media.

Because of the overuse of social media, interaction with family lessen, all of us are using phone more than we talk, even when we are eating outside and that is a sad reality that most of us are experiencing today. Kids became addicted and hardheaded when stopping them from using phones.

That people are more important than any devices and medias, we should talk more often with our family, pay attention to our environment and people around us more, make hobbies, find interests to divert our attention, focus on how to improve and make ourselves happy, and try to not be affected on what we see or read on social media and many more.

"Social media have "social" in term but making us unsocial to the people near us."

We tend to use our phone to scroll on social media applications in order to avoid people when we are not in the mood or shy to socialize with others or when there is a sudden attack of social anxiety. Also, when having the feeling of everyone’s eyes judging you, your face, body, outfit, posture and even your existence, which makes us not want to socialize with them more and that is the most fearful experience people may feel and it can only be avoided by scrolling through social media.
