Studies have shown that adolescents often compare themselves to others via social media platforms, causing these users to report worsened body image dissatisfaction. Additionally, posts typically only represent the "highlight reel" of users lives, meaning they post the photos that they look the best in or showcase highlights of what is going on in their life. However, to users engaging in this content, they see these "ideal" posts as being someone's norm. This makes them feel that their realistic selves fall short of what their ideal self may be, leading to them feeling worse about their body as well as their daily life. Users compare their looks to what they wish to look like given these unrealistic beauty standards from social media, which leads users to report their worsened body image dissatisfaction (most often seen in adolescent girls).
