Yesterday, I heard Jonathan Haidt twice on two different networks. I regard him as a pioneer in showing us, along with others, that social media use is an addiction that causes - not merely is correlated with -mental health damage. I suspect that the jury in the current LA trial will affirm this in a court of law, unless a settlement is reached before the trial concludes. The enduring damage from social media is self-evident, although I'm glad there is now scientific support for this, including internal documents from the social media platforms!

Hi Jason. I found this to be a really interesting perspective. Thank you for putting this out there.
Thank you - I love your use of diabetes as the metaphor that leads my understanding through the rest of the piece. Well worth sharing 👍🏼
