As humans, we have an innate need for connection and approval from others. Often, we make an effort to gain validation and this is natural. Yet, in our world today, this need for others’ approval becomes magnified; as many of us are constantly plugged in on social media, we tend to get caught up in the pursuit of “likes”, “shares”, “follows” & engagement. These can have implications on our mental well-being and happiness. Through this issue, I hope that we can be more aware of the impacts & risks associated with excessive use of social media, and what we can do about it so that we can live out our best lives.

A Psychiatrist's Perspective on Social Media Algorithms and Mental Health

As of 2021, there are over 3.78 billion social media users worldwide, with each person averaging 145 minutes of social media use per day. And in those hours spent online, we're beginning to see the harmful impact on mental health: loneliness, anxiety, fear of missing out, social comparison, and depression. Social media has undoubtedly integrated itself into society, but the question remains on how to properly negotiate our relationship with it.
