Can Social Media Use Contribute To Depression In Teenagers?

Cyberbullying involves using technology to harass, intimidate, or humiliate others, and it can be difficult to escape because it can occur online and outside of school hours.

Social media platforms can contribute to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem, particularly when teenagers compare themselves to others.
