\n

The extent to which social media has embedded itself into the daily lives of people cannot be understated.<\/p>\n

A UK <\/a>study has looked specifically at how teenagers are affected, and the differences between how they project themselves online and the unattainable images and fantasies they are bombarded with.<\/p>\n

Researchers at University College London studied almost 11,000 14-year-olds.<\/p>\n

They say teenage girls are twice as likely to show depressive symptoms as boys.<\/p>\n

But twice as many girls as boys use social media for more than three hours a day.<\/p>\n

The study found that can lead to mood swings, a drop in confidence, and poor sleeping habits.<\/p>\n

So what’s the connection between social media use and depression?<\/p>\n
