Seinamoodustise

Seinamoodustise is a term used to describe a psychological and social condition where an individual experiences feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem due to perceived social media-induced comparison.

In modern society, social media platforms have become an integral part of everyday life. People use these platforms to share experiences, achievements, and moments from their lives. While social media was initially designed to bring people together, it has evolved into a platform where individuals are pressured to present a curated and seemingly perfect version of themselves.

As a result, people often compare their lives to the seemingly flawless profiles of others. This comparison can lead to feelings of inadequacy, dissatisfaction, and a distorted view of reality. The constant bombardment of information and interactions on social media can create an environment where individuals feel the need to constantly present themselves and seek validation from others.

Seinamoodustise is a tongue-in-cheek term used in Estonia to describe the psychological and social consequences of excessive social media use. It is characterized by feelings of anxiety, insecurity, and low self-esteem. The term has gained popularity as a warning of the potential dangers of excessive social media use, particularly among younger generations.
