Let me not re-invent the wheel in this episode. There are some
really clever people who say it better than me (even if rather
brain hurtingly academical)! Read this Article:

behavior: where do we stand?

".....This overview will outline the current results of
neuroscience research on the possible effects of digital media
use on the human brain, cognition, and behavior. This is of
importance due to the significant amount of time that individuals
spend using digital media. Despite several positive aspects of
digital media, which include the capability to effortlessly
communicate with peers, even over a long distance, and their
being used as training tools for students and the elderly,
detrimental effects on our brains and minds have also been
suggested. Neurological consequences have been observed related
to internet/gaming addiction, language development, and
processing of emotional signals....
......A particularly important time for brain development is
adolescence, a period when brain areas involved in emotional and
social aspects are undergoing intensive changes. Social media
might have a profound effect on the adolescent brain due to the
fact they allow adolescents to interact with many peers at once
without meeting them directly. And indeed, published data
indicate a different mode of processing emotions in adolescents,
which is highly correlated to the intensity of social media use.
This has been shown in the gray matter volume of the amygdala,
which processes emotions.....
........This suggests an important interplay between actual
social experiences in online social networks and brain
development......Emotion precedence, peer conformity, or
acceptance sensitivity might make teenagers in particular
vulnerable to fake or shocking news, as well as unlikely
self-expectations, or vulnerable as regards regulation of
emotions due to unfavorable use of digital media......"
