No tool or technology is inherently destructive.
Social media has been designed from the ground up to be highly addictive, but that doesn't mean that it will have this effect on you.
You can use this in a smart and healthy way. Here's a prime example:
(Happy birthday @Andy Black )
This is healthy usage.
Clearly not a person that is addicted to this.
Unfortunately, most people are not like this.
They get pulled into an endless addiction and end up wasting their youth glued to a screen for 10 hours a day. It's not uncommon for this behavior to eventually result in depression and even suicidal ideation.
This is very serious stuff.
This is the mental health crisis that is plaguing the western society. And there is a very simple fix for those that are suffering because of this:
SHUT DOWN ALL THE BULLSHIT AND GO OUTSIDE
Pick up a sport.
Make new friends.
Start a business.
Life needs to happen.

I forgot to check Facebook on Friday which was my birthday. I only realised 36+ people had wished me Happy Birthday when I logged in this morning, three days later. I spent a couple of minutes thanking each person then logged out again.
