Resilience and Coping Strategies for Social Media Addiction

Registered Member ·
I came across an interesting Masters Thesis from Eastern Illinois University on resilience and coping with respect to social media addiction. Although I did not read this in its entirety, the discussion section is worth reviewing. The author highlights the correlation between social media addiction and avoidant coping skills. Furthermore, depression proved to be the greatest predictor of social media addiction. Take a look at the thesis here.

This looks like a really interesting webinar coming from a mind-body approach to working with clients. It also connects well to the work of Dr Gabor Mate, who speaks of trauma and addiction.
