Abstract:
This research paper provided similar studies that analyze the relationship between the utilization of social media and mental health issues, specifically the depression, anxiety, and stress of every individual. The purpose of this research was to analyze and discover the knowledge and data of the social media platforms and the mental health issues, and to determine the concepts, challenges, and struggles. An online questionnaire under the qualitative phenomenological approach was conducted; a research method that focuses on describing the experiences of social media and how they have suffered and coped from these experiences. According to the findings, there was strong negative connection between social media utilization and the students' depression, anxiety, and stress levels, as evidenced by -0.7172 correlation coefficient. This is a strong negative relationship - implying that social media has no direct impact on students' depression, anxiety, and stress levels. Conclusions were drawn and recommendations were offered towards the end of the study.
