The technological world has made the internet an innovative way for individuals to connect with people all across the globe. Social media sites such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, and YouTube have grown tremendously in acceptance among adolescents. The author brought to light that adolescents are in an age group where physical and emotional changes take place.

The work recommends Cognitive, Rational Emotive Behaviour, Supportive, and Family Therapies to help adolescents who are addicted to social media sites. It will help them to realise the disadvantages of excessive use of social media. Besides counselling, parental affirmation and availability, family interaction and communication, social gathering and innovative programmes in the church relevant to the needs of the adolescents can reduce the stress factor and loneliness. This will help them to come out of impulsivity, leading to physical, mental, emotional/psychological, and social well-being.
