Does social media increase or reduce your stress levels?

[Lia]

Social media definitely increases my stress levels. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t feel like social media is bad on every front, but it definitely can make me more stressed out– even subconsciously. If I am on my phone too much before bed– doomscrolling on TikTok– it takes me way longer to fall asleep. Does anybody else feel the same way?
