Follow mental wellness pages
“Use social media for business, gaining knowledge, and supporting your growth. All these areas will help your mental health,” says Matthews. Remember that there are some wonderful social media pages dedicated to elevating mental health. You can find therapists, life coaches, yoga teachers, and other wellness experts to follow. You can follow pages that simply post uplifting, confidence-boosting quotes every day. You can follow pages that only share stories about human kindness and perseverance. You are the information you consume, as it influences your thinking, and that influences your actions. Social media is often villainized for ruining mental health, but when used correctly, can actually better it.
