Social Media 


At one point in my late teens social media played a vital role in my life I felt that I needed to be on Facebook every second in the day. During this time period in my late high school someone began to cyber bully me and I didn't know who it was. Around this time fake pages were very popular and there was obviously someone behind this page, they would literally comment on every single status I made and picture I posted. This mysterious would say mean things like "No one likes you" or "Your ugly" It really bothered me being that I was pretty much a quite person and stayed to myself. After this continued on for  about a month I found myself disconnecting from Facebook for two months and I deleted that entire page and created a new one. Luckily there has not been anymore mysterious persons added on my page. Ever since that happened I just found myself adding people who were family or friends and it still is like that til this day. I can say that ever since that happened I don't find myself being on social media, I find myself using it mainly when I am bored so I have cut back a lot on my social media I just find myself browsing through here and there I can say I check my social media around 2 tow 3 times a day and that is about it I mainly just check notifications for events or articles. I really feel that social media is mainly used to see what is going on in others lives whether we keep in contact with them or not.  I am not for sure if the full usage of social media will be positive or improve interpersonal relationships because there can be a lot of misinterpretation of communication and that can cause a lot of problems.
