Quitting social media doesn't always improve mental health

Participants in the study were asked to refrain from using social media apps for one week and the effects were observed. According to daily surveys, people experienced a decrease in negative emotions, including boredom and loneliness, but a similar decline was also seen in positive feelings. The results indicate that quitting social media abruptly does not solve any problems, while moderate use of social networks can be beneficial for mental well-being.
