Scientists have now linked ‪selfies‬ to narcissism, ‪addiction‬ & mental illness so keep an eye out for your selfie loving friends on the Southcoast. Take our poll.

Narcissism is a disorder that involves a preoccupation with yourself and how you are perceived by others. Social Media is connected to narcissism and enhances the issue.  Recent studies say that every person on Facebook has at least 5 friends who post daily selfies, are you one of them?  Take our poll now...

The big problem with the rise of digital narcissism is that it puts enormous pressure on people to achieve unfeasible goals.  Wanting to be Beyoncé or GiGi Hadid is hard enough and it's not realistic, at all!

A study was done and Complete Health and Happiness shows us that those with higher narcissism scores were frequently updating statuses and posting photos on Facebook and Twitter.

Our advice, accept that your selfies will never look like someone else's and stay confident, but not narcissistic.

Recent studies say that 75% of people on Facebook have at least 5 friends who post daily selfies, are you one of them?  Take our poll now...
