The idea of perfection put forth on social media has caused many people to face unique challenges daily. Masking one's flaws while forming online friendships have led to low self-esteem and in turn, isolation and withdrawal from face-to-face social interactions. The pressure of perfection often leads to increased anxiety, social anxiety, depression, and lack of motivation to attend school. Parents often report concerns with their child's poor academic performance and their struggle to engage in day-to-day life; clinging to video games and online interactions. These behaviors impact family and can leave you feeling overwhelmed.
