There is a new report claiming that observed declines in youth #mentalhealth since 2012 is due to the rise of #socialmedia. I don’t often criticise research online, but given the escalating policy discussions & public concern I think it’s important to unpack this further 🧵 1/9

I was worried for a bit, but it's ok. They have developed a 'milk tea addiction scale', which will help guide how 'Policymakers should tackle youth milk tea addiction through public health strategies and regulatory measures.' Thank god for that!
