Through my faith in last few months I've been able to develop ways to cope with my anxiety. Through going to church on Sundays again and reading the Bible and specifically the psalms section it's helped my anxiety a lot. This article demonstrates:

#DCIM353A I think that a main takeaway that I have learned from this course is how much social media has now not only impacted our daily lives but also the work field as well hugely. I work two jobs and I've now realized how social media oriented the one really is now.

#DCIM353a In the following article it discusses how the wave of technology is overcoming America. One thing in the article that can relate to our essays is talking about how technologies are benefiting from being online through different media forums creating new job markets

#DCIM For my paper, The topic that I will be discussing is the social media sensation Tik Tok and how this technology has changed our lives and society as we know it. Due to the pandemic Tik Tok has now become even bigger than ever creating all new opportunities and experiences

@ShaikhE14 I decently agree that in todays society the social norm of dating has changed drastically. So many people do not know how to function and date "old fashioned" because of these dating apps. #DCIM353a

@laurentenRU I thought this article was very interesting because I agree with how parents of todays generation are worried their kids spend to much time on digital media. I think it's altered the way this generation thinks and interacts with one another. #DCIM353a

@Kem__Hus I think that this is a very well said statement. By using zoom teacher have tried to make the transition o online education easier for their students and themselves. #DCIM353a

According to pew research 59% of U.S. parents with lower incomes say their child may face digital obstacles in schoolwork. This is something that stood out to me because of how our education now depends so much on digital technology. #DCIM353a https://t.co/pVaT4PlCMY

@lilpeepluvr #DCIM353A I have defiant been one of those people that since the COVID 19 pandemic hit have been cording a lot more off of amazon. The reason's I've been doing it are because for a while we weren't able to go to store and now sometimes it just feels safer then going to the stores

A specific famous Tik Tok doctor that I see everywhere who spreads medical knowledge is Dr. Anthony Youn who is a plastic surgeon. #DCIM353A

In the article that I found it discusses how doctors and nurses are now using the social media app Tik Tok to reach patients or the public eye, to spread awareness on COVID-19 or just general medical knowledge. #DCIM353A

@yolyssetheman I think what caused people to chase views and likes instead of the initial goal of social media apps was when people figured out that they could make money based on having these huge followings of popularity and likes #selfsocietyclass

[Layne K Spyrka @SpyrkaK]

@ManuelaDCIM I do feel as though if from classes being online this semester my media addiction has decreased. I finally deleted instagram and also deleted Tik Tok. #selfsocietyclass

[Layne K Spyrka @SpyrkaK]

@TheFinalHawk one of the forms of social media that used to give me anxiety when I checked it was instagram. There reason for this being is because I feel like so many people are constantly watching and looking at your every move #selfsocietyclass

[Layne K Spyrka @SpyrkaK]

#selfsocietyclass I'm wondering how many people spend most of their time on their devices mainly social media? what makes you decided that this is a "priority" for you to have to mainly spend your time on these social media platforms?

[Layne K Spyrka @SpyrkaK]

@ParthB64214519 I completely agree with you that social media has consumed most of our daily lives now. I had a very similar realization and decided to delete certain social medias due to this reasoning #selfsocietyclass

[Layne K Spyrka @SpyrkaK]

@amorin_faith I completely agree with you how when we are on our phones now most of the percentage of us spending time on our devices is consumed by social media #selfsocietyclass

[Layne K Spyrka @SpyrkaK]

@Erica37087568 I completely agree with what your saying Erica I said something very similar and it looks like both of us spend the most time on Tik Tok! #selfsocietyclass

[Layne K Spyrka @SpyrkaK]

#selfsocietyclass one example of extensive internet use would be how people are addicted to social media apps. The most amount of time I spend on my phone on a daily basis is on Tik Tok. Constantly scrolling through videos being having formed an addiction of over use of the app
