Mission Prep’s new report focuses on the connection between social media and depression and anxiety, and the rise in social media addictions, especially among teens—essential information they believe parents like you should know.
By authoring their comprehensive yet accessible new report on the negative impacts of social media on teens’ well-being, Mission Prep hopes to spread awareness that social media is behind more than just feelings of FOMO (fear of missing out) in adolescents today, and can be a catalyst for genuine mental health concerns.
As such, their new report covers the wide-reaching implications of social media use in teenagers, from feelings of loneliness and inadequacy, including body dissatisfaction, to technology addiction, disrupted sleep cycles and cyberbullying.
However, despite this dark side—as experienced mental health care providers with extensive experience in the treatment of social media addiction and concomitant anxiety and depression—the team at Mission Prep stresses that balanced use of social media rather than a complete rejection of it is the most beneficial approach for your teen to foster a healthy lifelong relationship with it.
As their spokesperson said, “At Mission Prep, we work closely with teens to help them develop a healthy relationship with social media and technology. We believe that by taking control of how they show up online, how they interact with others, and how much time they spend on social media, they can significantly improve their mental health and overall quality of life.”
As such, in their guide, in addition to outlining the consequences of social media, they offer a significant number of proven suggestions you can utilize to help your teen develop this healthy balance.
These include:
Mission Prep also stresses that if your teen and your family are struggling, you should never be afraid or ashamed to seek professional help.
