Everyone cope with this in their own way, and in some cases they turn to specialists who have a wide range of tools to help in such situations. And recently one more method of struggle against stress was discovered - social networks, which were previously called among the negative factors.

How do social networks help to cope with stress?

According to statistics in Russia and Ukraine people spend 11.3 and 11 hours per month on social networks, respectively. And this provides them with the first place in the world in this indicator, followed by Argentina and Turkey. It is curious that the time spent in social networks in particular is steadily increasing, in recent years this figure has tripled. Psychologists became interested in this moment and came to a curious conclusion - social networks help to cope with loneliness and deal with stress. And these problems are more than actual, in modern megacities more than half of the residents are constantly experiencing work overload, suffer from loneliness, and the resulting stress. People used to relax before TV screens, and now they do it during social networking.

This approach allows you to cope with various problems, for example, they are able to help people who are difficult to communicate with others. On the Internet, not seeing the interlocutor, it's easier to communicate, so social networks can be the first step to the beginning of an active life. Here you can find people whose interests coincide with yours, join in groups and share information and good mood. And networks allow you to post your own content in order to feel the approval and recognition that users express with the help of likes and comments. Additional convenience of social networks is relative anonymity, hiding behind an avatar and nickname, an unsure person will be able to defend his point of view, which is unlikely to be decided outside the virtual space.

The most valuable thing is that the successes acquired in social networks do not interfere with real life at all. Charge positive emotions in the network, people often begin to feel more confident in life outside the network, and many get a powerful incentive for creativity. Also, links established in social networks often help to find interesting work and realize their creative potential.

Social networks also help young mothers, who too experience serious overload. The fact is that having given birth to a child, a woman loses the opportunity to communicate with friends as before, and many old ties are torn up altogether - diapers with first teeth are not interesting to everyone. Social networks make it possible to find such mothers, to pomumlyatsya together photos of their crumbs and ask for advice from more experienced parents. That is, the Internet helps young mothers stay on course, without feeling a sense of separation from the rest of the world.

Of course, all these pleasant bonuses stay in social networks can only be given with a metered application. If you sit there permanently, you can completely fall out of real life, ceasing to perceive the world around you.
