EXCHANGE IDEAS!

A. Watch the TED Talk entitled “Is Social Media Hurting Your Mental Health?”
presented by Bailey Parnell through this link (https://youtu.be/Czg_9C7gw0o). In 5-7
sentences discuss your answers to the guide questions below.

1. Social currency is one of the stressors on social media as mentioned by Bailey Parnell
in the video. How can this change/affect our sense of self?
2. If you will be tasked to deactivate your social media account, would you readily do
so? Why or Why not?
3. The top 3 diagnosis on university campuses by The Center of Collegiate Mental
Health are: anxiety, depression, and stress. Despite of these facts, 90% of 18 to 29
years old are still on social media. How would you relate F.O.M.O. or the FEAR OF
MISSING OUT to these findings? How could this be a mental health issue if it will not
be addressed sooner?
4. Social Media can tear you down or it can lift you up. As an adolescent who is highly
exposed to the internet, how will you be able to audit your social media diet to
promote your social media wellness?

Answers:
Social trends always changing due to time, it may become a stress to a person or maybe
a relief to other person; some medium users are victims of cyberbullying and It gives a
huge impact to their life. Deactivating account is a choice to all of us especially to me,
but it is hard to deactivate. Because most of our transaction is coming from social media
platforms, such as: facebook, Instagram, twitter, youtube, messenger, and etc… as a
teenager transitioning adulthood, F.O.M.O. or Fear of missing out is not a big deal, for
what do they care if you are not a type of person who follows the trends. Following the
trend is like you are letting the social media eat you, and that is wrong. You are the one
who must dominate the social media, not that social media. Social media may be give
bad but look at the bright side it also give us good things. It helps us to lose our stress in
life. Following to social trends should be less and let trend follow you. Being the person
who that social media should follow not the being the person who’s social being
followed.
