This article claims that heavy use of social media is linked to mental illness. Just off the bat, there are many case studies about this topic all supporting the direct connection between mental illness and social people. Some sources of these articles include schools such as MIT, Stanford, Yale, and other organizations such as the American Psychological Association. Without looking deep into this article, the evidence proving this claim to be true is astounding. Looking into one of the surveys mentioned in the article, the survey was conducted by legit neuroscientists and was pretty extensive in linking the platform of Facebook with addictive parts of the brain. I would say based on the surveys this article has used as evidence and based on the amount of other studies done that affirm this article, the claim that mental illness and social media are linked is true.
