How do I save a multiple paragraph in MongoDB I have a textarea that allows to input multiple paragraphs but doesn't save the line space in the data base

For example, I want the submitted data to be like this

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nobis, sequi? Lorem ipsum dolor.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nobis, sequi?

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nobis, sequi? Lorem ipsum dolor

but it saves like this

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nobis, sequi? Lorem ipsum dolor Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nobis, sequi? Lorem ipsum dolor Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nobis, sequi? Lorem ipsum dolor

make sure your text is inside a <pre> tag so it will preserve the formatting

With @Patrik Gohil's comment I was able to use the nl2br, since I am using a react the nl2br packaged didn't work but I used another packaged called link, since in react we need to create an element thru javascript
