A research shows that in the past decade, the average time spent on social media in a daily life has been steadily increasing. Many people’s lives completely rely on the information from SNS, such as Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube. People are getting to check their SNS whether the new post are made or not. Now it is obvious that the trends of fashion, food, and travel around world are made and spread by the activities of SNS. Everyone seems not to be able to live without SNS.

However, according to the latest study, it says now is becoming the peak of SNS, which means that people are looking for other sources to find information that meets their needs. People might want to break the addiction to SNS so that they can do other things, such as playing sports, talking with friends in person, and so on. Maybe, they are just getting bored with SNS because it sometimes cause problems like interpersonal relationships. The study does not show the reason why people spend less time on SNS, but what I mentioned above could be the answer.

Since there are many negative effects on the use of SNS, I hope the new trend will make people mentally healthier.
