Before they started the study, each participant was asked to rate their satisfaction with life, how much they compared themselves to other people, how active their social life was, and how easy they had found it to concentrate. Most admitted that they only posted the good aspects and positive events of their life to Facebook The results? After a week of living without social media, the cold-turkey group felt 55 percent less stressed and reported a higher level of satisfaction, concentration, sociability, and they felt less lonely. The scientists came to a conclusion: our tendency to compare ourselves to others is what leads us to dissatisfaction.
