Scientists from Ditch the Label, an anti-bullying charity, conducted a study to determine how social media can cause anxiety among youth. By surveying more than 10,000 people aged 12 to 20, they examined cyberbullying on Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram.

But Instagram was the most concerning.

They found that 42 percent of Instagram users had been bullied on the platform compared to 37 percent for Facebook, 31Â percent for Snapchat, 10 percent for YouTube and 9 percent for Twitter.
