Social media addiction (SMA) led to the formation of health-threatening behaviors that can have a negative impact on the quality of life and well-being. Many factors can develop an exaggerated tendency to use social media (SM), which can be prevented in most cases. This study aimed to explore the reasons for SMA.
This qualitative study was conducted using content analysis. A total of 18 SM addicted subjects were included through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using the Lundman and Graneheim qualitative content analysis method.

The main category of "weakness in acquiring life skills" was extracted with three themes: "problems in socializing" (including communicating and escaping loneliness), "problems in resiliency" (including devastation in harsh conditions and inability to recover oneself and "lack of problem-solving skills" (including weaknesses in analysis and decision making and disorganization in planning).
Weakness in life skills plays an important role in individuals' addiction to SM and formation of the health-threatening behaviors. Since SMA can affect behavioral health, policymakers must adopt educational and preventive programs to increase the knowledge and skills of individuals in different societies in the modern world.
社交媒体成瘾（SMA）会导致形成危害健康的行为，对生活质量和幸福感产生负面影响。许多因素会使人产生过度使用社交媒体（SM）的倾向，而在大多数情况下这种倾向是可以预防的。本研究旨在探究社交媒体成瘾的原因。
本定性研究采用内容分析法。通过目的抽样纳入了18名社交媒体成瘾者。通过半结构化访谈收集数据，并使用伦德曼和格拉内海姆定性内容分析法进行分析。通过目的抽样纳入了18名社交媒体成瘾者。通过半结构化访谈收集数据，并使用伦德曼和格拉内海姆定性内容分析法进行分析。
提取了“生活技能获取不足”这一主要类别，包含三个主题：“社交问题”（包括沟通和逃避孤独）、“适应能力问题”（包括在恶劣条件下的崩溃和无法自我恢复）以及“缺乏解决问题的技能”（包括分析和决策能力薄弱以及计划混乱）。
生活技能不足在个体对社交媒体的成瘾以及形成危害健康的行为方面起着重要作用。由于社交媒体成瘾会影响行为健康，政策制定者必须采取教育和预防项目，以提高现代世界中不同社会个体的知识和技能。
