The University of Copenhagen has issued a report, indicating to the negative role of social media on the psychology of the social media users.
The research showed that a week-long break from the social media site was found to be more satisfied with life and rated their own well-being as higher, while people who use Facebook regularly often become depressed, a study has found.
The research included 1,095 people, half of whom were asked to continue their Facebook habits and half ordered to abstain from logging on.
Most of the participants were understood to be jealous of their friends' activities on social media.
The finding also revealed that the more time 19 to 32-year-old people spend on social media, the more likely they are to become depressed.
Facebook has approximately 1.79 billion monthly active users, according to the recent research.
