Nowadays social media has become an important part of our life. Many people spend hours on social media, due to which they forget other important things. Although social media does provide some information, but if it is made a habit, then it has many disadvantages. In some rich countries, therapy is also being given to get rid of mobile addiction.
Harmful effects of social media and benefits of detox
According to studies, social media causes more harm than benefits. A recent study has found that if you reduce your daily social media usage by 30 minutes, then problems like loneliness, fear of getting lost from the world, anxiety and depression can be overcome quickly. Imagine, if you stay completely away from social media for a week, what effect will it have on your health. Let's know its benefits:
