With kids’ digital well-being a concern， researchers are exploring potential links between social media and the rise in tech addiction and loss of real-life social skills.

Some research has observed a relationship between social media use and anxiety in kids， but it’s difficult to know whether social media is causing anxiety or kids who are anxious are turning to social media as a way to soothe themselves or seek support. How kids use social media matters， too： Social comparison and feedback-seeking behaviors have been associated with depressive symptoms， which often co-occur with anxiety.

Here are some tips for keeping social media a positive for kids.

Self-care. Seeing photos of a trip to the beach your friends didn’t invite you to can really sting. If you are super bummed or tired of digital drama， take a break from social media for a while. Put social media in perspective. People post stuff that makes their lives look perfect—not the homework struggles， or the fight they had with their dad. In fact social media leaves the messy stuff out—and that everyone has ups and downs.

Do offline activities. Some kids could spend their days lying around looking at Weibo， but you should realize it’s doubly important to cultivate your inner lives. Prompt yourself to balance social media with soul-nourishing activities such as hobbies， exercise， reading， and helping others. 随着青少年的数字健康成为父母关注的焦点，研究人员试图探索社交媒体与青少年科技成瘾以及缺失現实社交技能之间的潜在联系。

有些研究已观察到社交媒体的使用与青少年焦虑之间存在着关系，但很难弄清楚究竟是社交媒体导致焦虑，还是患有焦虑的青少年为了寻求安慰或支持而使用社交媒体。青少年使用社交媒体的方式也很重要：社交攀比和希冀反馈等行为与抑郁症状相关，这些症状通常伴随着焦虑。

下面是一些让社交媒体对青少年产生积极影响的建议。

自我关爱。看到好朋友去沙滩旅行的照片，而你却未曾受到邀请，那确实很难受。如果你对“数字闹剧”感到沮丧或厌倦，暂时远离社交媒体。
