Primary research:
Through my primary research I found that social media can have a positive and also negative experience depending on what form of social media used or how you use it. For example people can have good experiences making friends and reading positive comments. However these comments can lead to a negative experience through arguments and nasty comments left on posts.

Secondary research:
Through secondary research it suggests that social media can have a negative effect on a person's mental health especially in teenagers due to a fear of missing out and cyber bullying aswell as a negative body image.
