Hey guys, here's the last episode in our social media series: And Then We Were Naive. In today's episode, Molly and I discuss the effects of social media on a global scale; we talk about why teens are more likely to use social media as a news source, Gen Zs' and Millennials' effect on the 2020 election, fake news, etc. As always, we also tied in some of our own experiences to give you guys a better understanding about this topic! Since we do touch on topics that could be triggering, we wanted to provide resources for you guys, which are linked below. Please remember that you can always talk to people in your life if you are struggling; it is better to get things off your chest than to keep it bottled in! Also, huge thank you to Therapist Aid for giving us resources to help those in need. If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to share, subscribe/follow, leave an audio message, and rate us!
