Students are dealing with extreme pressure to excel at school and to be liked online, and this has become very challenging for their mental health. Students were also found to have increasing levels of anxiety and committing self-harm. This amount of inflicted pressure derives from schools, parents, by the students themselves and the pressure of living up to the unrealistic expectations of what is portrayed on social media. While any counselling found in schools must be obtained and payed by the school, many students are left on their own.
