What To Do If Instagram Makes You Feel Bad

If you’re like most people, you probably spend a lot of time scrolling through social media. But do you ever wonder if it’s good for you? 

Instagram can be pretty fake, so how does it affect us when people try and pass off their embellished lives as reality?

YR Media reporter Hannah Cornejo talks with Harvard researcher Dr. Emily Weinstein to find out how social media affects young people, and whether we’re searching in the wrong place for realness.

Weinstein is a researcher at Project Zero, a center at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. She studies how social technologies shape the lives of kids and teens.
