(Wilson)SEVEN SIGNS OF A SOCIAL MEDIA ADDICTION OR COMPULSIONSome people are able to handle the social media revolution that is sweeping the planet earth. However, more and more people are not able to handle it. Here are some signs to look for that indicate a problem with social media:1. Spending more than one hour daily at social media sites. Some would say one should not spend more than half an hour daily. 2. Checking social media sites whenever possible. Some people leave the program open and switch back and forth to it while working, for example. Others use a phone App to check it while eating lunch with friends, for example. This is extremely rude, but one observes it a lot. 3. Over-sharing. In an age when many people are very concerned about their privacy, some people are sharing very private information or photos with their Facebook friends or on other sites.

The more social media a person consumes exposes them to more problems such as addiction, cyber bullying, and exposure to inappropriate content, and psychological effects. Social media is fun, everyone is using snapchat, instagram, YouTube etc. but it starts to become a trend that can consume your daily habits. It’s hard to regulate yourself when using social media, one click turns into another and another and all of the sudden two hours pass by. These habits can quickly result in social networking addiction. Social networking sites such as Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, and dozens of others allow people to stay in touch like never before. However, some people spend so much time on these sites that it begins to interfere with their lives. Psychologists are referring to this as a social networking addiction.SEVEN SIGNS OF A SOCIAL MEDIA ADDICTION OR COMPULSIONSome people are able to handle the social media revolution that is sweeping the planet earth. However, more and more people are not able to handle it. Here are some signs to look for that indicate a problem with social media:1. Spending more than one hour daily at social media sites. Some would say one should not spend more than half an hour daily. 2. Checking social media sites whenever possible. Some people leave the program open and switch back and forth to it while working, for example. Others use a phone App to check it while eating lunch with friends, for example. This is extremely rude, but one observes it a lot. 3. Over-sharing. In an age when many people are very concerned about their privacy, some people are sharing very private information or photos with their Facebook friends or on other sites. A possible reason for this is to gain approval or acknowledgment from peers. This is sometimes called the need for social affirmation. 4. Interference with work, school performance or your offline social life. Some studies report that too much time on the social media can cause lower school grades. It can also reduce work performance and even lead to job loss. 5. Withdrawal symptoms if you try to cut down on the time you spend on social media. 6. Escapism. If you are using your time on the social media to avoid conflicts or problems that are occurring in your real life. You can know this because when you are “down”, you turn to Facebook or another social media site to feel better. 7. Losing sleep to go on social media sites. It is bad enough if your social networking interferes with your daily work and studies. However, it is really out of hand if you stay up late at night to check Facebook, for example, or must wake up early to check it in the morning.

Mostly A’s You are addicted to social mediaLeading hypnotherapist and counsellor Diana Parkinson says: “If you’re constantly checking your phone, tablet or laptop, you’re moving into compulsive or addictive behaviour. If you feel anxious when you're not connected to social media then you have a problem.” Diana recommends: “Make time to actually speak on the phone, arrange to meet up with those you care about, share a meal, chat face to face and have a real cuddle you can feel.” “Make a golden rule that when out with friends or family there will be no phones at the table. Switch off or put on silent and out of sight. Really take time to notice how much better your life is as you spend more of it in the real world and less in the virtual world.”
You are social media-phobicSocial media isn’t a big deal to you Leading hypnotherapist and counsellor Diana Parkinson says: “Social media is now an accepted way for people to communicate and interact and we use it because it gives us instant connection with whatever is happening in the moment.” “Social media can give us a real sense of belonging, that we matter because – ‘Look I have lots of friends/followers’. It shows we are an important part of our own little network and it can boost feelings of confidence and self esteem. It’s a place where we can voice our hopes and dreams, ask for help and advice, and where we can feel ‘heard’.”
You have a healthy balanced attitude towards social media Although at the moment you’re a moderate user of social media, keep tabs on how often you visit these sites and make sure it doesn’t develop into an unhealthy obsession. Leading hypnotherapist and counsellor Diana Parkinson says: “Social media can make some people feel inadequate, as they compare their ordinary life with someone's ‘look at me having a great time’ postings." "So if spending time on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram makes you feel upset or bad about yourself - stop – because you could spiral into depression.” Section OverviewSocial media can be fun but use your time wisely, and practice healthy social habits. Check the signs if you feel that you might be addicted to social media, the sooner you know the faster you can start healthy habits. Cyber-bullying
Research on this topic is still at an early stage of investigation; the phenomenon only appeared a few years ago, as the use of electronic devices such as computers and mobile phones by young people has increased. Although difficult to detect, victims of cyberbullying experience greater levels of depression than face-to-face bullying. Unlike traditional forms of school bullying, where once the victim gets home they are away from the bullying until the next day, with cyber-bullying the victim may continue to receive text messages or emails wherever they are. Another is the potential audience. Cyber-bullying can reach particularly large audiences in a peer group compared with the small groups that are the usual audience in traditional bullying. For example, when someone downloads a picture or video clip with intention to embarrass the person in the clip, the audience that may see these clips/videos can be very large. Another common characteristic of cyber-bullying is the invisibility of those doing the bullying: cyber-bullying is not a face-to-face experience, and (like rumor-spreading) provides those doing the bullying with some degree of “invisibility” and at times anonymity.

Mostly A’s You are addicted to social mediaLeading hypnotherapist and counsellor Diana Parkinson says: “If you’re constantly checking your phone, tablet or laptop, you’re moving into compulsive or addictive behaviour. If you feel anxious when you're not connected to social media then you have a problem.” Diana recommends: “Make time to actually speak on the phone, arrange to meet up with those you care about, share a meal, chat face to face and have a real cuddle you can feel.” “Make a golden rule that when out with friends or family there will be no phones at the table. Switch off or put on silent and out of sight. Really take time to notice how much better your life is as you spend more of it in the real world and less in the virtual world.”
You are social media-phobicSocial media isn’t a big deal to you Leading hypnotherapist and counsellor Diana Parkinson says: “Social media is now an accepted way for people to communicate and interact and we use it because it gives us instant connection with whatever is happening in the moment.” “Social media can give us a real sense of belonging, that we matter because – ‘Look I have lots of friends/followers’. It shows we are an important part of our own little network and it can boost feelings of confidence and self esteem. It’s a place where we can voice our hopes and dreams, ask for help and advice, and where we can feel ‘heard’.”
You have a healthy balanced attitude towards social media Although at the moment you’re a moderate user of social media, keep tabs on how often you visit these sites and make sure it doesn’t develop into an unhealthy obsession. Leading hypnotherapist and counsellor Diana Parkinson says: “Social media can make some people feel inadequate, as they compare their ordinary life with someone's ‘look at me having a great time’ postings." "So if spending time on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram makes you feel upset or bad about yourself - stop – because you could spiral into depression.” Section OverviewSocial media can be fun but use your time wisely, and practice healthy social habits. Check the signs if you feel that you might be addicted to social media, the sooner you know the faster you can start healthy habits. Cyber-bullying
Research on this topic is still at an early stage of investigation; the phenomenon only appeared a few years ago, as the use of electronic devices such as computers and mobile phones by young people has increased. Although difficult to detect, victims of cyberbullying experience greater levels of depression than face-to-face bullying. Unlike traditional forms of school bullying, where once the victim gets home they are away from the bullying until the next day, with cyber-bullying the victim may continue to receive text messages or emails wherever they are. Another is the potential audience. Cyber-bullying can reach particularly large audiences in a peer group compared with the small groups that are the usual audience in traditional bullying. For example, when someone downloads a picture or video clip with intention to embarrass the person in the clip, the audience that may see these clips/videos can be very large. Another common characteristic of cyber-bullying is the invisibility of those doing the bullying: cyber-bullying is not a face-to-face experience, and (like rumor-spreading) provides those doing the bullying with some degree of “invisibility” and at times anonymity.

However, more and more people are not able to handle it. Here are some signs to look for that indicate a problem with social media: 1. Spending more than one hour daily at social media sites. Some would say one should not spend more than half an hour daily. 2. Checking social media sites whenever possible. Some people leave the program open and switch back and forth to it while working, for example. Others use a phone App to check it while eating lunch with friends, for example. This is extremely rude, but one observes it a lot. 3. Over-sharing. In an age when many people are very concerned about their privacy, some people are sharing very private information or photos with their Facebook friends or on other sites. A possible reason for this is to gain approval or acknowledgment from peers. This is sometimes called the need for social affirmation. 4. Interference with work, school performance or your offline social life. Some studies report that too much time on the social media can cause lower school grades. It can also reduce work performance and even lead to job loss. 5. Withdrawal symptoms if you try to cut down on the time you spend on social media. 6. Escapism. If you are using your time on the social media to avoid conflicts or problems that are occurring in your real life. You can know this because when you are “down”, you turn to Facebook or another social media site to feel better. 7. Losing sleep to go on social media sites. It is bad enough if your social networking interferes with your daily work and studies. However, it is really out of hand if you stay up late at night to check Facebook, for example, or must wake up early to check it in the morning. Staying up late is one characteristic of those who overuse social networking sites, according to some studies.

However, more and more people are not able to handle it. Here are some signs to look for that indicate a problem with social media: 1. Spending more than one hour daily at social media sites. Some would say one should not spend more than half an hour daily. 2. Checking social media sites whenever possible. Some people leave the program open and switch back and forth to it while working, for example. Others use a phone App to check it while eating lunch with friends, for example. This is extremely rude, but one observes it a lot. 3. Over-sharing. In an age when many people are very concerned about their privacy, some people are sharing very private information or photos with their Facebook friends or on other sites. A possible reason for this is to gain approval or acknowledgment from peers. This is sometimes called the need for social affirmation. 4. Interference with work, school performance or your offline social life. Some studies report that too much time on the social media can cause lower school grades. It can also reduce work performance and even lead to job loss. 5. Withdrawal symptoms if you try to cut down on the time you spend on social media. 6. Escapism. If you are using your time on the social media to avoid conflicts or problems that are occurring in your real life.

It is bad enough if your social networking interferes with your daily work and studies. However, it is really out of hand if you stay up late at night to check Facebook, for example, or must wake up early to check it in the morning. Staying up late is one characteristic of those who overuse social networking sites, according to some studies. |
