Less social media use found to improve mental health, job satisfaction: Study

Reducing social media usage by 30 minutes improves mental health and job satisfaction, according to a study. It found that less social media use led to individuals feeling less overworked and having lower levels of 'fear of missing out' (FOMO). Researchers recruited 166 employed people spending at least 35 minutes a day on non-work-related social media and divided them into two groups. One group reduced their social media time by 30 minutes a day for a week. The group that reduced social media usage saw significant improvements in job satisfaction and mental health, which lasted for at least a week after the experiment.
