The dark side of social media on youth mental health::The U.S. Surgeon General’s recent advisory highlights the perilous impact of social media on youth mental health, linking it to rising cases of eating disorders and body image dissatisfaction.
We’ve known the side effects of social media for decades but we’re still doing nothing…
Decades? Aren’t they less than 2 decades old?
I doubt we knew it’s effects for decades
Speak for yourself; I thought Facebook was shitty back in 1984.
MySpace surely was one of them. Came out in 2003. So…two decades? :D
A little over two decades actually.
Iirc, I was about 16 when Myspace was a thing. I’m gonna be 40 very soon
We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas.
