S3 Ep. 5: Friendship and Mental Health

Welcome to an insightful exploration of ‘Friendship and Social Media Influence,’ where we delve into the critical shifts in human connection prompted by the digital era.

This episode scrutinizes the growing preference for online interaction over in-person connections, investigating the repercussions on mental health, the perception of success, and overall physical well-being.

With an increasing global reliance on smartphones for communication, we’re compelled to question:

Are we sacrificing the essence of genuine friendship for digital convenience?

We’ll address the stark increase in lifestyle diseases such as obesity and diabetes, attributed to more sedentary, indoor lifestyles devoid of essential physical activity and sunlight.

Furthermore, this discussion extends to how current and future generations are learning to socialize within this new paradigm, where friendships are often fleeting and lack the depth of face-to-face relationships.

Drawing upon available studies and expert opinions, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of the vast landscape of friendship and socialization in the age of social media.

Join us as we navigate the intricate web of online interactions and their profound impact on our lives.
