In an age when social media is a part of life, there has been much
debate about whether it is a force for good or evil. Removing
personal opinion from the discussion, this book focusses on
research findings to deliver a sorely needed account of the
relationship between social media and mental health. Written by
experts from a range of disciplines, this book provides a valuable
overview of the field. Beginning with research on the nature of
social media and their use, the book explores how social media
influences mood, body image and general health, and how we can use
social media positively. It also explores the link between social
media use and specific mental health disorders. Discussion is
grounded in the latest research to allow readers to make their own
informed judgements. A must-read for professionals in social care,
education and mental health, as well as interested general readers.
