A survey found that “two-thirds of participants reported difficulty relaxing and sleeping after using the sites, while 55% said they feeling “worried or uncomfortable” when they couldn’t connect. on their social media accounts” (Whiteman, p. 2). I interviewed five people and they all told me they go to bed with their phone right next to them. In today's modern society, 72% of adults spend their time in bed before falling asleep updating or checking their friends' status updates on Facebook (BEDTIME SOCIAL NETWORKING CAUSES SLEEP DEPRIVATION EPIDEMIC ACROSS BRITAIN). These statistics are often presented as proof that adolescents' social habits and school schedules reduce the amount of sleep needed. Being exposed to bright light from computer and cell phone screens in bed completely delays the brain and body's ability to fall asleep. This behavior causes people to be unable to fall asleep as quickly as they should and not get the amount of sleep they need each night. The link between sleep and mental health is well documented. It has been shown that people who suffer from anxiety tend to spend less time in deep sleep than those who do not suffer from anxiety (Sleep and Mental Health). Robotham said it best when he said, “Good sleep is fundamental to good mental health, just as good mental health is fundamental to good sleep” (Sleep and Mental Health). Social media technologies prevent users from staying in bed; If you already have trouble sleeping, social media sites are a convenient way to get through it.
