I chose to study the impact of publishing on social media and its impact on mental health, with a special focus on young artists of today's university students, generation Y and Z. For several years now, there has been an interesting trend whereby the use of social media platforms (in our case Facebook, Instagram and Behance) has significantly transformed the professional presence of young artists online and offline. While we can assume that the new opportunities provided by these rapidly expanding digital platforms have a clear positive impact on their professional development, it is worth examining the underlying factors and sometimes even serious negative consequences of social media use.
