Question

Is social media a positive or negative influence on teen mental health yes or no?

Answer 1

Negative, completely negative. Specially if you're here in this website all the time (unfortunately I cannot state the reasons because I wouldn't want to hurt people in here) but I recommend you don't spend all your time here as people here can have a big influence on how you feel and your outlook in life

Answer 6

With the increased popularity of community-driven platforms, social media has become a lifeline for people seeking support. Platforms like Facebook Groups and Discord communities allow individuals to connect with others who share similar challenges, creating safe spaces for discussion, empathy, and support. These groups often provide a sense of belonging that can reduce feelings of isolation.

In 2024, peer support apps like Wisdo and 7 Cups have become more popular, offering real-time mental health support from people with shared experiences.

Twenty-four-hour suicide prevention hotlines aren’t the only sources of intervention.

Facebook Groups offer a wealth of support groups for people living with depression, anxiety, and loneliness.


just a fact
An increasing number of websites are now offering support through social media channels. These sites often provide anonymous forums for people to connect and share personal experiences.

Strengthen existing relationships.
Social media can also help manage relationships, especially with those who live far away from each other, thus breaking down geographical barriers. It can also be helpful at maintaining relationships for those with disabilities, such as older people and people with physical handicaps which limit their mobility and prevent travel outside the home.

Far from increasing isolation, social media can provide alternative means of finding support, even helping to lift depression. As Meetups have shown, they can also provide a healthy excuse to go outside rather than stay cooped up indoors or hunched over a computer.
