My exploratory essay had the purpose of showing the impact of social media on sleep in today’s world. This goes into how social media can affect ones emotions, lifestyle, and work ethic. This essay also touches on the influence of social media in the world today and how prevalent it is. This essay was written for the audience of people who typically use social media. I researched articles written by experts to show that social media in fact has a negative influence on peoples’ sleep. Writing this essay allowed me to realize how big of a problem this is in the world today. My research shows that this problem is only getting worse and measures are needed for it to stop.
