Do you spend more than two hours a day on social media? I know I sure do sometimes. The reality is those of us who do are three times more likely to be diagnosed with depression. In this episode we break down some simple steps to claw some of that time back.
In this solo Psychology Of episode we break down the psychology of doomscrolling. It starts with a TED talk from the three founders of the Minimalists, who built an audience of four million people and then quit social media completely for twelve months, and the surprising thing they realised on the other side of it. From there I walk through my three favourite tools, the ones I've put in place that actually stuck, the comparison trap of social media, and why none of this is actually about quitting - completely.
