Social media has been developed to connect people. However, quite early, scientists found that social media (and social media addiction) can lead to changes in the brain such an enlarged amygdala. First reports surfaced showing that people compare their lives to lives they see on social media and report a decline of mental health upon heavy social media use. It seems like our brains cannot distinguish between social media and the real world. Social media also led to an attention span crisis meaning that we have a harder time to focus if we spend much time on social media. Moreover, social media is able to feed into the reward system of our brains. Everytime we perceive something good dopamine producing cells in the brain release dopamine which leads to a good feeling. Social media has used this mechanism to provide us with a constant stream of good feelings. Social media algorithms have been optimize to show more social media content in a shorter period of time leading to more dopamine. As a result, some argue that social media addiction should be recognized as a mental disorder.
Besides negatively impacting our brains on an individual level social media and social media addiction also impacts society. Last year, a sharp rise in tic symptoms have been reported among teenagers in the US. It seems like that tic-related content on tiktok together with anxiety caused by the COVID-19 pandemic led to this rise in tic-like symptoms. So what should we do about social media? And how can we ensure that our brains are not negatively impacted by the constant stream of dopamine? Well, sometimes the best thing is just to avoid social media for a while.

There is no doubt that #depression and #anxiety are severe problems in our society today – but the thing to notice is that the rise of #socialmedia has coincided with two things- the rise in depression & the rise of extreme political ideologies. Here is FMF’s new video throwing some light on this issue.
I quit social media for a month… and this is what happened
I never tried anything like this before but I recently got stuck in another episode of depression and I figured, why not give it a try. Quitting social media has expanded my perspective on comparison and succes. I highly recommend everyone to try a social media detox at least once! #socialmediadetox I was inspired to do this detox from watching these videos:
I quit social media for 30 days // Matt D’Avella
Are You Living an Insta Lie? Social Media Vs. Reality
QUIT YOUR JOB AND TRAVEL FOREVER!! // Cody Ko
