Hello everyone, how are you. I'm still on the topic of social media but I wanted to broaden the range to the internet as a whole. The internet is just a tool, but it depends on who uses it that it can negatively impact the mental health of youth. of a matter of fact just people in general. I will continue to look into is as the BFA show comes around. I have my article from Pew that shows teens from 2022-2024 and what they think social media has help or worsen in their lives.
This other article made by Geros health talks about the mental aspects of the internet on your mental health. Though it mostly talks about social media it also brings up excessive gaming and cyber bullying. And that social media could cause body dysmorphia or feeling inadequate compared to other people in similar points in your lives. Id does have benefits in terms of online therapy. Keeps you anonymous and allows you to tell more. The best part is you're home the whole time.
The Impact of the Internet on Mental Health: Explained
My BFA will be about the Internet/social media and the effects it has on people. Though I am focusing on mental health that is not the only factor. Socially people can feel isolated or have it hard to make friends. I made a quote. "Social media has you focus on everything besides your personal life/ relationships". Anyways that is what I have. God Bless you and have an amazing day.
What is your art intervention?
