In this episode, Ethan, Ben, and Kabir discuss the psychological consequences of social media with Debbie Strauss, LCSW. They evaluate the ways in which algorithms trap users in loops of scrolling and negativity, how social media drives inauthenticity, and how people’s digital identities intersect with (and even erode) their real-life experiences. But above all, they emphasize a better path forward, delivering strategies to cope with and develop resilience against an increasingly toxic digital environment.
