Technology is a useful tool, but many people don’t know how to use it properly which can easily become damaging. As much as you may love your Twitter page is it really worth the toll it takes on your health? That’s for you to decide after you read the following 10 ways social media negatively effects your life:

技術是一種有用的工具，但是很多人不知道如何適度使用它，殊不知使用不當很容易產生不良效果。這麼喜歡刷Twitter，但它真的值得讓健康付出代價嗎？當然了，在讀完下面的社交媒體對你的生活帶來的十個不良影響後，你可以自己來決定。

1. Reduces person to person interaction.

減少了人與人之間的交互

Not only do you spend less quality time with is people who are physically present in your life, but they will quickly get annoyed by you when you’re paying more attention to an electronic device than them. Eventually the people around you will even stop wanting to hang out with you.

你不僅減少了和身邊人相處的品質時間，而且當你把注意力集中在電子設備而不是人們身上，人們也很快就煩了。最終你身邊的人不再想和你一起出去玩了。

2. Increases your cravings for attention drastically.

大幅度增加你對注意力的渴望

Posting vague statuses on Facebook to grab others attention could easily become a nasty habit for people who use social media frequently. The never ending competition for likes and notifications can consume you.

對頻繁使用社交媒體的人而言，在Facebook上寫模糊的狀態來吸引他人的注意很容易成爲一種不好的習慣。對“贊”和通知的無止境的競賽很容易把你掏空。

3. Distracts from life goals.

分散你對人生目標的注意力

It’s so easy to get wrapped up in what’s going on in social media that people will neglect their real life goals. Instead of aiming for the dream job by obtaining useful skills people, especially younger people, tend to strive for internet stardom.

人們很容易在社交媒體中牽扯過多，以至於忽略了真正的生活目標。尤其是年輕人，很容易去追求互聯網上的明星地位而不是通過有用的技能來去爭取夢想的工作。

4. It can lead to a higher risk of depression.

會更容易導致抑鬱

According to recent studies the more people used social media the more negative feelings they experience, including depression. This could partiulalrly harmful to people who have been previously diagnosed with depression. If you are beginning to notice you’re feeling down on a regular basis it’s probably time to take a break from your many social media.

最近的研究表明，人們使用社交媒體服務的時間越長，得到的負面體驗就越多，其中包括抑鬱。這尤其是對之前已患有抑鬱症的人更有危害性。如果你開始注意到自己經常不開心，那麼現在可能是時候斷開你的社交媒體服務了。

5. Relationships are more likely to fail.

戀愛關係更容易以失敗告終

No good comes out of online displays of jealousy and snooping. It may seem like an easy option when it comes to dealing with relationships, but in reality it does more damage than good. In fact, studies show that the more a person uses Facebook the more likely they will be to monitor their partner, which leads to arguments and crumbling relationships.

在線讓人嫉妒和窺視可不會有什麼好結果。當涉及到處理戀愛關係時，在網上發佈信息可能是個簡單的選擇，但是在現實中這樣造成的傷害會比得到的益處要多。實際上，研究表明一個人使用Facebook越頻繁，他越可能監督自己的另一半，這樣會導致吵架和關係破裂。6. Excessive use of social media stunts creativity.

過多使用社交媒體會損害創造力

I can speak from personal experience that social media is the easiest way to stunt, or kill, the creative process. Surfing social media sites, especially Tumblr. in this scenario, has a numbing effect on the mind that’s similar to mindlessly watching television. If you plan on being productive today shut off those apps!

以我自身的經驗來看，社交媒體是損害創造力過程最簡單的方式。瀏覽社交媒體網站時，尤其是Tumblr，大腦處於麻木狀態，和無意識地看電視效果相似。如果你想今天的工作效率高些，那就關上那些應用吧！

7. Cyber bullying is alive and well.

會接觸到網絡欺凌

People feel too comfortable on the web and say things they wouldn’t normally say in real life. If you’re not the one say horrible things, you’re still inevitably going to be exposed to it. And if you are one of the people talking trash? Cut it out! You’re not as anonymous as you think. With the rampant cyber bullying on the web, people are also becoming more rude off the web as well.

人們在網上感覺太舒適了，很容易說一些真實生活中通常不說的事情。即便是你不說可怕的事兒，你也不可避免地會接觸到它們。如果你也是在網上談論無用內容的一員？那停停吧！你沒有想象中的那麼匿名。網絡欺凌越來越猖狂，人們即使是斷網了也比以前要粗魯。

8. Constantly comparing yourself to others online will make you miserable.

在網上不斷和他人比較會讓你覺得自己很可悲

The digital persona people display on Facebook is often much different that what actually goes on in their lives. After a while you may feel like you know your online aquainences better than you do. Try to remember that everyone is just as human as you are.

人們在Facebok所展示的電子版的生活和他們實際的生活通常是不同的。過一陣時間，你可能覺得你更瞭解網上的熟人。你要記住，其他人和你是一樣的。

9. Loss of sleep.

缺乏睡眠

The light emitted from your various electronic screens tricks your mind into thinking it’s not time for you to sleep. Getting enough sleep each night is already difficult enough without extra complications. Perhaps it’s best if your phone doesn’t stay with you though the night.

你的各種電子屏幕上發射的光會讓你認爲現在還不是睡覺的時間。沒有額外的干擾，晚上睡足覺已經是很難了。也許晚上最好不要把手機放在身邊。

10. Lack of privacy.

缺少隱私

Between social media websites saving (and selling) your personal data and the whole NSA mess involving unsolicited government access of personal data including email, Skype calls, and so much more it’s very clear that privacy and the internet don’t mix at this point in time.

社交媒體網站保存（售賣）你的個人數據，連國家安全局都陷入了未經請求政府訪問個人數據的醜聞。訪問的數據包括電子郵件、Skype通話和其他內容。很明顯現在隱私和互聯網是緊緊相連的。
