It's amazing how deeply social media has become a part of our lives. Some people can't live an hour without checking to see if someone has liked their new photo.

Step 1
Psychological addiction.
About 80% of people who have an account in any of the popular social networks admitted that they check their page for new events at least once a day; the third is engaged in updating the information on their page with especially painful regularity. Thus, the psychological dependence of the user of the social network is almost as strong as the dependence of the smoker on nicotine.
Step 2
Jealousy.
According to sociological research, the cause of many divorces in the United States and Great Britain was an excessive fascination with social networks. Many wives, trying to improve their spouse in infidelity, went to his page in search of evidence and, of course, found them: likes, reposts and comments left on the photos of alleged rivals could sometimes destroy someone's marriage.
Step 3
Help in work.
Social media can not only ruin families, but also help to relax during the work process. Short social media breaks have been shown to increase employee productivity by as much as 9%.
Step 4
Envy.
Numerous photos on social networks try to convince us that all the people depicted on them are happy, rich and successful, even if in reality everything is not so. This is why, over time, avid social media users become more and more jealous of their friends' success.
Step 5
Improving self-esteem.
Most often, having started a page, we more and more often want to share our thoughts and photos on it, because it is very nice to see flattering comments from strangers on our photos.
Step 6
Loss of friends.
Due to the fact that social networks allow their users to show not the best sides of their character, sometimes you can lose friends. After all, you are waiting for a bunch of likes - and your post was ignored. You write something important, with a hint - and you are misunderstood or dismissed, being busy.
Step 7
Poor health.
Many users of popular social networks note that their general health is gradually declining: they become more prone to being overweight, an unhealthy complexion appears, a preference for fast food, problems with vision and posture appear.
