When is the last time you’ve walked into a restaurant and saw an entire table of friends on their phone, each content to be in their own world – nearly unaware of the reality around them?
With the meteoric rise in popularity for documentaries like The Social Dilemma, it safe to say that questioning the effect that social media addiction has on our society a growing sentiment and realization within today’s culture. With many people decided to take a social media detox, or quit social media all together.
But what is the path forward in the new age of social media, and the side effects of the rapid evolution of the technology and the algorithms that control how we interact with the platform? Is it as simple as turning off big tech, or perhaps to quit social media? Or is there a way we can start to take control our use to find a healthy balance for social media and mental health?

For the first time in history, mental illness and suicide have become one of the greatest threats to school-aged children. Many parents still view dangers as primarily physical and external, but they’re missing the real danger: kids spending more time online and less time engaging in real life, free play, and autonomy. What are the effects on the next generation’s mental, physical, and spiritual health? Childhood was more or less unchanged for millennia, but this is CHILDHOOD 2.0.

I have a confession… (The Social Dilemma) by Jared Polin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D9CrOKkk_4
Back in 2019, I deleted my Instagram of over 4,000 followers. I was spending SO much time on the app dealing with comparison and rarely spending any time alone. As a photographer people told me this was my “business card” and deleting it would be a terrible decision. After getting rid of social media, I was able to focus more clearly on my tasks, goals, and vision for my life.
You have your small friend group in life that will help give you advice and guide you, but without realizing it we allow a much bigger group of people to start dictating our decisions. There’s a clear difference between our followers and our friends and we’ve lost that reality. I decided to get away from social media and delete the account, I needed to reset because what I had been doing was not working.
Social media apps are designed to keep our brains over-stimulated and addicted to their product. Our culture is so afraid of silence and alone time, but we have to start embracing these moments in order to find ourselves.
“We’re living for people we’re never going to meet, and neglecting people that are going to be here forever”
