Overcome Social Media Addiction with Expert Counselling

Over the past ten years, the endless browsing through social media has grown significantly, especially youth’s addiction to social media has grown out of proportion. Despite the fact that the majority of people’s use of social media is not harmful, a small minority of users develop an addiction to social networking sites and use them compulsively or excessively.

Unfortunately, social media addiction has not spared any age group. From toddlers to adults, any individual belonging to any age group can suffer from Social Media Addiction.

Social networking sites’ dopamine-producing social contexts are mainly the primary causes of social media addiction. To keep users using their products as much as possible, social media companies like Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram alter neuronal circuitry similarly to how gambling and recreational drugs do. The constant barrage of retweets, likes, and shares from these sites causes the same kind of physiological reaction to occur in the brain’s reward center as drugs. Here’s how we help individuals overcome social addiction:

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is counselling good for social media addiction?
Social Media addiction Counselling is not only good for the individual but also necessary. Counselling helps an individual to curb the urge to overuse social media and to understand social media addiction’s effects on one’s life and how it is important to reduce social media addiction.
2. What does a movie addiction counsellor do?
A movie addiction counsellor helps in making the individual understand the effects of movie addiction on real life and also defines the difference between real life and movie life.
3. How much does social media addiction counselling cost?
The cost of social media addiction counselling, whether online or in-person counselling, varies on several factors, from location to duration and frequency of sessions.
4. What are the 5 signs of social media addiction?

The following five behaviors indicate a social media addiction.

  • Checking social media is the first thing you do in the morning.
  • In the course of the working day, you check social media.
  • When you are unable to access social media, you become concerned.
  • You continually monitor the effectiveness of your posts.
  • You put a lot of thought and time into planning your postings.
5. How does social media make you addicted?
Because using social media causes the brain’s reward system to release the “feel-good” chemical dopamine, it can cause physical and psychological addiction. A neurotransmitter is a substance that acts as a messenger between neurons and is involved in dopamine’s neurological and physiological functions.
6. Can social media addiction counselling be done online?
Yes, Social Media Addiction counselling can be conducted online. Attend sessions for addiction treatment from the comfort of your home while speaking with one of our highly experienced online counsellors.
7. How can we prevent social media addiction?

Social media addiction is a common occurrence in all age groups and it is important to be aware of the individual’s changes in behavioral patterns. Prevention of drug abuse is possible if noticed at an early stage. With drug addiction counselling, it is possible to reverse substance abuse disorder and practice self-control.

These tips may help you in preventing social media addiction. Remove the apps, or turn off social media notifications: Turning off notifications will place a little hurdle in the way of most social media users who mindlessly check their accounts. You’re less likely to spend time on social media if you don’t always see an icon or alert on your phone. Set boundaries and abide by them.
