      abstract = {This survey-based study examines the complex relationship between social media, online conflict, and mental health. The survey showed 83.7% of the population is on the two most widely used platforms daily, Instagram (72.7%) and WhatsApp (50.9%). Forty-four point five per cent reported subjective mental fatigue as ?occasionally? or more. Indeed, 47.3% of the sample were comparing themselves online, 32.2% were arguing online frequently, and 50.9% were making a digital detox for their mental health. What?s even more surprising is that with trolling and all, 69.1 percent of people said that social media overall had a positive influence. The report even warns people to be careful about how they use social media, as it could become an unpleasant way to communicate with others.},
