Perlejewska remarked: “[The] data is alarming. Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat have the same impact on young people as drugs. Constant active participation on these platforms activates certain brain structures, which can lead to problems with concentration, fatigue, and distorted perception of reality.”

Additionally, a constant presence on platforms like Facebook affects real interpersonal relationships,” they said.
