The moral panic over social media and teen depression
That's not because researchers aren't looking for such a causal link, because they definitely are, and have been for some time. But despite all of the studies, there is still an almost complete lack of any evidence that social media use causes anxiety or depression in young adults.

@corlin I'm not a scientist, but I'm pretty sure being a teenager/young adult is most of what causes anxiety and depression. Tough life stages.
@corlin Agreed.
