There are various reasons for students' choosing social life whereas some may have good, some have bad results on their real life. Sometimes students' stay awake all night for playing social media games or they get overinvolved in the social media life that they forget their real life responsibilities. Is social media an escape from real life? Is it really the reason of our students' staying awake? What are the possible causes of sleeping problems that our students are facing these days?
