This study examines the impact of social media on mental health, focusing on both positive and negative effects. With the increasing use of digital platforms worldwide, social media has become an essential part of daily life. However, its influence on psychological well-being remains controversial. The study applies the IMRAD structure, analyzing existing literature and highlighting major findings. Results indicate that while social media can enhance communication and social support, excessive use is associated with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. The paper concludes with recommendations for balanced usage.
