Reply to comment by cubbest in RI Department of Health begins developing suicide prevention plan amid new reports of a spike in mental health issues among teens by greenhousecrtv

My point is that social media is to blame for much of teenage anxiety and poor MH. From body image issues to the loneliness kids can feel when they see false projections of what social life looks like. DOH isn’t going to solve that.

I wonder if teenagers are more depressed due to social media consumption because they're more aware of what the adults are doing.

I would have been a far bigger shithead as a teenager armed with the knowledge (instead of suspicion) that the "adults" were mostly fucking stupid.
