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:
