No. It just provides another means for narcissists to "express" themselves.
I was on vacation, so I missed this and several other contests. Still, everyone should upvote me because I'm perfect. You should have been following me since I started on Steemit. ;-)

I'm not sure if social media makes people more narcissistic. I have noticed more of a need to comply and not stand out from the crowd. That's probably why I'm pleased it wasn't around when I was young.

Saying yes, it would be wrong, rather than becoming narcissistic, social media highlight our inherent characteristics, love our ego is something natural, but with social networks, we have the opportunity to make it notice much more.

Many people use social media to get acceptance and build their ego. So I don't think it's making us more narcissistic. Though someone always getting to many attention from social media may start feeling too highly of himself/herself which could be narcissistic in a way.

Honestly I think it really depends on the person. It's good to have some self confidence but if you're relying on someone else to give you that boost, you may be walking a thin line between remaining somewhat humble and appreciative or becoming addicted to the attention and praise which will lead to the narcissistic tendencies. I don't think social media is turning everyone into narcissists but it's definitely a double edged sword. If you look at artists that create music or characters in media, a lot of times you get a sense of who is doing for the sake of the art and who is looking for the fame and attention. It surprises me that those who are definitely in it for the attention last very long. A few people come to mind but I won't mention names.

Nothing is good or bad, it depends on the person that uses that. For someone that has a narcissistic tendencies, social media is a great way to show to others how amazing their life is, or how beautiful they are. They feed on that attention.
On the other hand - I saw amazing social media profiles, that are made with good intentions, like helping other people or communities, animals and nature. Sadly, these ones are less appreciated in our modern society. So again, it depends on the person...

Well, it really depends on the personality of the person and their decisions, we are clear that social networks lend themselves to many things and above all to modify our appearance and show what is not, I think if we become narcissistic because to this we always want to be perfect and presentable in the photographs and everything we show in our social networks, so definitely yes.

There is big difference between arrogance, egoism, self-love, high self-esteem, being self-centered, being obsessed with selfies etc. and narcissism. They don’t have much in common with narcissism. People with Narcissistic personality dissorder abuse others in order to put them down because seeing others being down emproves their self-esteem. They have so low self-worth and self-respect, that they need others to be turned in to wrecks in order to feel better and more competent themselves.

According to recent studies that confirm the growing need for many users to be permanently connected to interact with their acquaintances through platforms such as Facebook, "Social media is addictive because you are the center of the experience, so you naturally want to spend more time on it, to see how people respond or respond to what you share," according to analyst Brian Solis.
Similarly, after analyzing the Facebook habits of almost 300 people between the ages of 18 and 65, the researchers found evidence of two socially damaging elements of narcissism, such as a craving for protagonism and a willingness to take advantage of others.
These attitudes were most evident in those who had more friends on the social network, updated their account and profile picture more frequently, and reacted more aggressively to those who criticized them on Facebook.
The weight of social networks has reached the point where, according to the University of Maryland, the way in which they interact in them contributes to creating the user's identity in front of others and in front of oneself, a link that does not necessarily have to be negative.

Narcissism:
Exaggerated and excessive admiration that a person feels for himself,
for his physical appearance or for his gifts or qualities.
Having this concept as a basis we can say that it is something literal.
At some point you can feel so good with yourself that in social networks you express it that way,
being direct with your beliefs, with your appearance and intelligence but sometimes you can also be in a bad mood, sad or depressed and the social network does not give you That mood you need, you only get it in real life with your loved ones. Then the social network makes you be null in that moment where without any problem you can share from your joy to your sadness. Everything is mental, if you use it only to publish your vistorias and hide in your defeats you will opt for a narcissistic stance.
