Us (young people) and the internet

Good afternoon,I will talk to you about the relationship that exists
between us, young people, and the internet, everything I will say
here was said by a psychologist, Natasha Almeida.

The appearance of the internet, social networks and applications

has changed the way we communicate, making it more practical,
fast and efficient. Making it possible for us to stay in contact with a
simple click. These means of communication have positive aspects,
however, they also have negative consequences if they are used in
an uncontrolled or abusive way, could lead to
-social isolation
-sedentary lifestyle,
-decrease in school performance,
-difficulties in establishing relationships

We young people were born into this generation of facebook,

whatsapp, etc., and we cannot imagine our life without these means
of communication. In fact, we can observe a quick change of mood
in a young person when the internet fails at home, when he cannot
access wifi in a public place or when he runs out of mobile data.
Some authors have introduced terms such as “Facebook
depression”, which is feeling deep sadness or anguish, feeling
disconnected from the world, they also introduced us to the term
“phantom touch” wich is described as the feeling of hearing your
phone ringing or vibrating when it's not really there.
We live in the Age of Technology, the search for social networks
and faster and more modern ways of communicating with friends.

To conclude Social networks can and should be used as a

communication tool, but there is something that the internet
cannot provide, interaction and the social environment,
