Social media what is it doing to our minds? | one life infinite explorations

Social media validation is like the left one samosa in the plate , when guest come into our home.
You pretend like you don't want it but really ๐Ÿ˜?
Deep down you are willing for just one bite or In social media case , fb,  insta or Twitter or what's app bite๐Ÿ˜‚.
When Instagram hitting one billion users , so imagine how much money the developer will get ?
Like w always switch between three apps like generally we most of us use this apps like what's app , insta and facebook.
So we are discussing social media validation and what social media doing to our mind ?
We definitely want to find this, isn't we?
Because most of us will agree or disagree  but deep down we all are stuck in it ? Aren't we?
So let's  check how it works on our body , mind and everything.
So first we start discussing this scientifically, your brain chemistry especially DOPAMINE associated with love ,lust and sex.
It's responsible for the connection we make between an action and feel good reward what that follows, Every time that action reward gives us happy and cosy or I should say some intense or insane vibes and this association become stronger day by day and you start craving more and it will result into an addiction.
.
●How it affect us?
So it is just an addiction.
It will make you feel good , great or Sometimes or I will say most of time you will feel some anxious , sad or some mixed emotions that you won't even detect .
The effects of DOPAMINE is not so good .
Like we actually addicted to social media .
Like it started SEEKING or reaching for your phone after posting picture to check how many comments or likes you got.
The reward comes when the likes start floating and then it's become an addiction .
You can log in anytime you want but logging out is a difficult task to do.
.
●Social and mental effect -
The average people spent time on social media is at least 2 hours .
And most of people spent more than 2 hours per day this use leads to high level of addiction and may also leads to depression.
 People who spent more than 2 hours per day on social media have a high tendency to reward a mental illness.
A recent study found that if you are a teenager using social media is like digging into pocket of chips or winning money .
You just can't get enough .
It's important to tell our FOMO to FO time to time because what you really missing out of life is LIFE .
Living and nurturing beautiful and lovely life given to you by God.
.
●How apps are on it -
The current market of Facebook which is also owns Instagram and what's app income of this apps are in  billion dollars.
But as everyone know Facebook is free and always will be that's because we are the customer and advertiser are.
Our attention is what we sold for free .
This apps are designed to get uz hooked.
Because more attention platform can pull the more effective is it's advertising space become .
Allowing it to charge advertiser more .
This is ATTENTION ECONOMY.
The average people check their phone once in 157 times daily and the apps like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter makes money of every second .
From infinite scrolls on Instagram and facebook this apps are built exactly like slot machine .
You pull down to refresh and then wait for  at least hours and what you gonna get a new follower?  A new like ? A new comment ? Or nothing ๐Ÿ˜.
And we will try this again and again and again.
Social media gas lots of trolls .
So for this we need to find where to draw the lines but because it doesn't just about likes .
When you feel your post doesn't get so  many likes or comments you get disappointed , you feel sad or just feel bad about it .You may think on this alot.
But life is not an episode of an black mirror there is a actually hope , Instagram recently report that to take hide on likes from photos .So people could actually pay attention towards the content .
Social media has lots of curse .
Yeah there are some more point which proves that social media is a pure bliss but really is pure bliss?
Because as we compare the good and bad points of social media the trolls wins the game.
 So it's time to get out from our danger over use of social media and start living life the way you want it.
