While people were once believed to be shaped by those they spent time with physically, the content we consume and individuals we follow online now significantly influence our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Despite growing concerns about these effects, limited research has examined the relationship between social media usage patterns and psychological well-being among young adults. This study examined whether social media usage patterns affect patience, stress, and anxiety among young adults. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 124 participants aged 18-30 years. The survey collected demographic information and assessed social media usage patterns, with scores computed for patience, anxiety, and stress. Results indicated that stress levels were positively correlated with social media usage (r=0.33, p&lt; 0.001), with Instagram emerging as the most widely used platform. A paired t-test revealed that participants significantly underestimated their actual screen time compared to their perceived screen time, t(123) = [insert your t-value], p=0.0002. Correlation analysis also indicated that screen time was positively associated with increased anxiety (r=0.22, p=0.014) and negatively associated with patience (r=-0.19, p=0.035). These findings highlight the importance of developing digital self-awareness, encouraging individuals to maintain control over their social media usage rather than letting these platforms dictate their levels of stress, patience, and anxiety. 2025 IEEE.
