On this World Mental Health Day, a groundbreaking study has been published about how social media intersects with various pressures teens feel (e.g. the pressure to have a game plan, to achieve, to be good friends, to look certain ways, etc.). In this episode, we hear from teens themselves about their experiences of these pressures, and then we hear from researchers from the Center for Digital Thriving, Common Sense Media, and Indiana University about teen feelings of pressure and burnout on a national scale.
To learn more about this research, check out the report and the Center for Digital Thriving’s website.
