Abstract
This study investigates the link between teenage mental health outcomes and social media use. The paper analyzes earlier studies on the topic, discussing the relationship between social media use, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. The study also highlights variables such as pre-existing mental health conditions, individual variation in social media use, and the type of platform used that may modify the association between social media use and behavioral health outcomes. The study finds that, depending on individual characteristics and behaviors, social media use can have both beneficial and detrimental consequences on adolescent behavioral health. The study underlines the significance of striking a balance between social media use and other activities to support teenagers' behavioral health.
