Do you find social media to better your mental health or make it worse!?

So I recently started following some people on Instagram that are mental health professionals or other sufferers of obsessive compulsive symptoms - and wow. I actually don’t feel so badly anymore when I open my feed as compared to before. Sometimes the algorithm makes me feel WORSE - with the targeted advertisements and random posts that would trigger FEAR.

It’s a double edged sword sometimes, but maybe I need to use it more mindfully?

Just curious what you all thought of social media?
