Social media and body image

 Hi everyone and welcome to my blog! 

In this blog, I will be writing about social media and body image, and I will be discussing different forms

through which social media impacts the body image of people. I aim to introduce several issues regarding this topic and

show the importance of this issue in today's world. I believe you are already familiar with this topic to some extent because it is very widespread especially among young people and it can be seen all over social media. I chose this topic because I think it is very important as it affects people both physically and mentally and can cause different changes in appearance which are often not healthy. 

A lot of people including me and my friends have experienced the impact that social media has on body image. Nowadays, developing is not easy. You see so many posts on social media that are telling you what is beautiful and what should you look like. Especially people in the teen years are often very vulnerable because they are trying to find themselves. With social media as a huge part of their lives, they play a big role in their evolution. Some years ago I too was scrolling through social media and was seeing these pictures of "perfect" women which made me feel not enough. Later, that had several impacts on me, but I will get to the details later in my blog. 

All in all, this topic holds huge importance because loving and valuing our bodies is very important for our mental and also physical health and the media should not have the right to manipulate how we see ourselves.

I hope you will enjoy this blog and it will give you a deeper understanding of this topic!
