Does social media (Facebook, Instagram) affect your self-esteem? Make you jealous?

Does social media (Facebook, Instagram) affect your self-esteem? Make you jealous?
I noticed I've been basing my self-worth on the Internet. My photo gets 30 likes while a friends get 100+ and extra comments: Omg your hot! Stunning! Beautiful! My Facebook often consists of quotes and posts I put up with the occasional friend writing something on my wall...while some of my friends have others posting "OMG I miss you! When am I gonna see you?" As for Instagram, well, same thing.

I never took it to heart before. I didn't care, but recently I've been falling into a spiral of self-hatred. Social Media is making it a lot worse.

Unfortunately I can't deactivate Facebook since my entire family overseas are in constant contact and message/photo exchanging with me and my family.
