Question 8 / 11 - Social media

Does the use of social networking sites influence your thoughts and feelings?

Correct!

For many people it is very important to get reactions to their posts. These reactions often influence personal feelings and thoughts. Even when you are not posting yourself, you are being influenced by the information you see and read. The term social media addiction already exists. It means that there are users who cannot live without the online world anymore. They can't differentiate between the real world and the virtual world. Sometimes their virtual friends mean even more to them than the ones they have in real life. Being addicted to social networks can destroy families, friendships and even working relations.
