Când scroll-up devine anxietate: un medic psihiatru explică efectele ascunse ale rețelelor sociale

Social media can exacerbate anxiety by fostering feelings of inadequacy and fear of missing out. Dr. Ioana-Alexandra Cotae explains how excessive use leads to a cycle of anxiety and dependency. Individuals, especially those with social anxiety, may find comfort online but risk avoiding real-life interactions. The constant comparison with idealized lives on social platforms can diminish self-esteem and increase anxiety. Seeking professional help is advised when anxiety symptoms worsen or interfere with daily life.
