Social Media's Hidden Impact: Mental Health and Relationships Uncovered
So, whether it's on trips or cars or going out with their spouse or private schools for their kids, it's like there's just no, no button for them, you know, and or there's no sense of hey, we can't afford that, or you know, that's not going to work this time, whatever it may be. You know, it's just kind of like in their mind.
Ever felt like social media is more than just a fun distraction? Ryan Wynder, known as The Vegas Therapist, dives deep into how these platforms are reshaping our mental health and relationships. In this episode, Ryan sheds light on the sneaky ways social media fuels anxiety and depression, especially among teens and men.
He talks about the constant culture of comparison, where everyone seems to be living their best life, making it hard for the rest of us to feel good about our own. Ryan doesn’t just leave it there, though. He offers practical advice on how to live within our means and set a good example for our kids. He also touches on the importance of being honest and vulnerable in our relationships.
Men, in particular, often struggle with admitting when they're not where they want to be in life, which can lead to depression and even substance abuse. This episode is a call to be real about our situations and not let social media dictate our happiness. Ryan emphasizes resilience, urging us to face daily challenges head-on rather than getting lost in the fantasy world of perfect online lives.
This episode is packed with insights that can help you navigate the tricky waters of social media, build emotional strength, and foster healthier relationships. Tune in for a candid discussion that might just change the way you see your screen time.
