Social networks may be related to increased suicide rate among young people, says study

Social networks may be related to increased suicide rate among young people, says study

It is increasingly common for children to start using cell phones and social networks in the early stages of development. This rapid familiarization with technologies at an early age is a consequence of the current state of our culture and the communicative processes that evolve at high speed. As much as this brings benefits, there are side effects related to the use of these tools, especially among the younger ones. This is what a study published in the journal Clinical Psychological Science says.

What parameters were observed in the research

Information and statistics were gathered that relate the use of mobile phones and their tools to the increasing rates of suicide. In addition, the impact that social networks can have on the social interactions of children and adolescents was measured. "Children are extremely social between 12 and 18. So they build a self-image that is highly based on the opinion of others, so that social interactions have a very important role in creating a young person's identity," says therapist Jack Hinrichs Duluth News Tribune.

It's only natural that younger people grapple around smartphones for what they have to offer: social interaction and one-click distance networking. At first glance, it seems like they are connecting more with each other, and are being more social than their parents were before. But when we look at this picture with more attention, we realize that this sociability is superficial.

Hinrichs says that we immerse ourselves in a deep loneliness in social networks, because while we interact with several people, we have no one around. This fact associated with a phase of findings and doubts, may potentiate depression and suicidal thoughts, especially in adolescence. "

From 2007 to 2015, suicide rates have been increasing absurdly. The increase in the number of teenagers increased by more than half of the total number of teenagers in the United States by the end of the year. Hinrichs on numeric surveys that were made in the study.

What the results show

The current scenario, in which adolescents prefer to communicate through social networks, makes it impossible for human contact where it is possible to perceive the emotions of others, so that young people do not have successful support for their problems. In addition, the bombardment of information on the Internet causes stress and anxiety if the use is constant.

Because of the great social potential of the Internet, some conflicts can be amplified by it. There is the invasion of privacy, and the exposure of people who would not like to be in the spotlight. It is therefore necessary for parents to be attentive to the emotional health of their children, ensuring frequent dialogues with them so that the use of new communication tools does not isolate children, making them feel alone, unassisted and unmotivated in ages premature.

Forgiveness and asking for forgiveness is good for emotional health

Forgiveness and asking for forgiveness is good for emotional health

Forgiving is very important. It does the mind well and gives "peace in the heart". The greatest goal of forgiveness is to bring relief and resolve to the person who is feeling anger, resentment, or hurt. Many people confuse the act of forgiving with consent and passivity.
