Building relationships in the Digital Age -- Screen attachments -- The distorted mirror -- Substance abuse, depression, body image, and the importance of social media literacy -- Breaking up with the Digital Age -- Medicating with technology -- A call for self-compassion in the Digital Age -- Finding your e-tribe -- Balancing the virtual and the actual life.
"Studies show that the average American is spending more than 10 hours a day in front of their screens... Too often, bad feelings from social media interactions linger, negatively affecting our off-line lives and worsening already present mental health issues. Instead of demonizing social media by taking a one-note, "digital detox" approach, Logged In and Stressed Out recognizes social media is not, itself, the problem--it's how we use it that needs examining."--Back cover.
