Content: In this paradox, we forget that our own opinion is way more valuable and worthy than anyone else’s. Deceit-fullness
Despite having a life full of sorrows and difficulties, people opt to post those moments of life filled with joy, happiness, pleasure, social events and success only. It pressurises us to maintain unrealistic standards created by those people. However, we often forget that those pictures are edited to the extent that they look perfect to us. It can be frustrating, thus lowering our self-esteem to the lowest standards. Comparison and competition
When social media is constantly feeding us with pictures of perfect people with perfect lives, it lowers our self-esteem. It creates an unhealthy amount of comparison and competition. A person who is already struggling with low self-esteem and self-doubt will feel like he is living a below-average life after seeing others living their best lives. Despite being a harmful platform, social media itself is not the root of depression and anxiety. Issues arise in our head when we get carried away and lose grasp of reality, making social media a reality.
