Social Media's Impact on Mental Health - Part 1
The seemingly innocent scrolling through your social media feeds could be silently eroding your mental health and self-esteem. In this revealing conversation, we dive deep into how platforms originally designed for connection have transformed into advertising machines that profit from your attention at the cost of your wellbeing.
What makes social media particularly dangerous is its presentation of carefully curated highlight reels that bear little resemblance to reality. As David explains, "People only post what they want you to see," creating an environment where constant comparison becomes inevitable. It's like watching movie trailers - everything looks perfect until you see the full picture.
We explore how these digital platforms affect self-perception, particularly for adolescents and young adults who are still developing their sense of self. Through personal examples and professional insights, we unpack the psychological mechanisms behind social media addiction - from the dopamine hit of notifications to the anxiety of missing out. The current political climate only amplifies these negative effects, bombarding users with stressful content that increases worry and diminishes peace of mind.
But this isn't just about identifying problems - we offer practical strategies for creating healthier relationships with social media. By limiting platforms, setting boundaries, and recognizing the difference between curated content and reality, you can enjoy the benefits of digital connection without sacrificing your mental wellbeing. Whether you're concerned about your own social media habits or those of someone you care about, this episode provides the understanding and tools needed to navigate our increasingly digital world with confidence and clarity.

Matt Fox: 6:26
Is it? It is time, it is here we go.
Announcer: 6:34
That's how winning is done.
David Wright: 6:38
Alrighty, so we do a lot of good stories. We've done a lot of them on famous people who have done nice things, and the same names keep coming up in those. Okay, do you ever notice that? A little bit, dwayne Johnson is always in there. Mm-hmm, shaq is always in there. Yep, there was another one. It's slipping my mind right offhand, but that's okay. This is about a A-list actor who did something really nice. Okay, is it Steve Carell? It Is it Steve Carell.
Matt Fox: 7:01
It is Steve Carell, I just you know. I only say that off the cuff because I just saw something come across my feed today yeah, and on my Facebook feed, and it was. He did something. I'm not crying, you're crying, so what? What is going on? Okay, okay.
David Wright: 7:14
In a recorded video, A-list actor Steve Carell dropped in on several high schools around Los Angeles to give the seniors a very special announcement. The students probably thought it was a curious prank or an AI-generated video, but they would be wrong. The announcement was that all the seniors' prom tickets had been paid for by a nonprofit that Corral has personally worked alongside before.
Matt Fox: 7:42
Is that because of the fires? Oh?
David Wright: 7:44
okay. They asked him to lend an air of stardust to their announcement video and Corral was all too happy to oblige. Attention, attention, all seniors, corral said in the video which beamed into the assembly halls of six schools in Altadena, california.
Matt Fox: 8:00
Six different schools, mm-hmm. Oh, my goodness.
David Wright: 8:02
This is Steve Correll with a very special announcement. Even though the Eaton Fire, which burned 14,000 acres of towns and hillsides to cinders, had left all six of the schools standing, many of the students from those schools lost their homes in the blaze. Yeah, from those schools lost their homes in the blaze. 3,000 miles away in Virginia, alice's Kids works anonymously to provide low-income or disadvantaged children something they need. In this case, it was determined that, along with taking away the burden of families of affording a $50 to $185 prom ticket, what they needed more than anything was a good time. That's great.
David Wright: 8:41
I work with a wonderful charity based out of Virginia called Alice's Kids. Corral said in the video and Alice's Kids wanted me to let you know that they will be paying for all of your prom tickets. That's amazing. The prom is a party and, more than anything, these kids need a party. Ron Fitzsimmons, executive director of Alice's Kids, told the Washington Post they need something that is uplifting. Steve Grell's famous protagonist in the Office, Michael Scott, once promised children he'd pay for their college tuition through a program he started called Scott's Tots.
Matt Fox: 9:13
That's right, you remember that episode, I do I do.
David Wright: 9:17
But, as is often the case throughout the show, Michael backs out of his commitment to the kids after he realizes he doesn't have any money. Right, Alice's Kids is donating $175,000 to send 800 seniors to proms across Avison Schools, Blair High School, John Muir High School, Marshall Fundamental Secondary School, Pasadena High School and Rose City High School. This means everything to our students, said Lori Tolomian, the principal of Marshall Fundamental Secondary School. It brought so much joy this morning and that's something that our students have really been missing recently.
Matt Fox: 9:56
That's pretty cool.
David Wright: 9:59
I just saw something come across my feed and I just took a gal and I saw yeah, so that's really cool it's really cool and I I don't know any famous people personally sure do you know what I mean but but it seems like maybe they sometimes they might be out of touch with what the normal person goes through, just because they typically have all the money they would ever need yeah.
David Wright: 10:18
So this is kind of cool to see somebody who doesn't need really to be involved in anything like this okay, so knowing, involved, knowing the characters that steve carell plays right right for the seniors to see michael scott on the tv.
Matt Fox: 10:32
I'm sorry, steve carell on tv. Attention, seniors, all seniors are like okay, what's going on?
David Wright: 10:39
I wish he would have done it as prison, mike. Oh my goodness, come on man.
Matt Fox: 10:46
But you know, for him to do that, I guess shift.
David Wright: 10:48
This is pretty cool for him to do no, it's a great thing, great thing for the kids.
Matt Fox: 10:52
And it's not a charity from California, it's a charity all the way on the other side of the country and how he got connected with them.
David Wright: 10:59
I don't know, but but he is connected with them and he's done work for them in the past. This is this that's a great story. It's a great story, definitely something. Winner of the week.
Announcer: 11:16
That's how winning is done.
David Wright: 11:18
It. Is it really? I was looking. I don't think I, so back to it. I don't think I have anything from michael scott that I I know you don't I need to get some michael scott sounds you kind of do, I do.
Matt Fox: 11:29
That's what she said yeah no, I'm sorry, you can't say they have a brain like a chicken.
David Wright: 11:33
I I I'll get I'll get on it.
Matt Fox: 11:35
You can't say. You can't say that's what she said anymore.
David Wright: 11:39
I say it all the time, do you really?
Matt Fox: 11:40
Yeah, well, you should be saying that's the name of my porno. That's what she said.
Announcer: 11:44
I am listening to you no more.
David Wright: 11:45
Wow, that was great.
Matt Fox: 11:49
Yeah, in fact.
David Wright: 11:49
Ethan and I, we do it all the time. Fair enough, yeah. We're constantly saying it, all right yeah all right, yeah, it still holds. You know what? Are you people on? Dope? Oh, but yeah. So our topic today, david, is.
Matt Fox: 12:08
Topic today is social media and mental health. And so let me just go on, go on the record and say you utilize social media to expand on your business, on your message, on your shows. That you do, and you're kind of feeding into a little bit of that. But, however, there is a line that has to be drawn in the sand and that line gets crossed so much by a lot of folks.
David Wright: 12:36
Well, and that is the problem, because inherently, just like anything else you see out there and I know the analogies don't quite fit specifically, but you can say it about alcohol you can say it about marijuana. You can say it about TV. Anything that's addicting, yes, anything that you ignore your daily responsibilities for.
Matt Fox: 12:57
Fair.
David Wright: 12:58
Is a problem In and of itself. It can be very innocuous and very innocent, but depending on how you use it, that becomes the problem. Okay, so I'm drinking, same way with mental, same way with social media and your mental health.
Matt Fox: 13:11
So we're drinking alcohol, we are we're on social media we are okay, so what line have?
David Wright: 13:16
well, do we have any pod here? No, we don't one quick call right?
Matt Fox: 13:24
no, not yet we're kind of feeding into the, into the addiction. So help you know. We're going to help folks that are are coming across this podcast, in this episode, if you feel like you are addicted to the social media, what are we going to talk about? Some ways that folks can work the way off.
David Wright: 13:42
Absolutely Perfect and I work with clients on this, especially right now that there's a very in our show and, believe me, this is a mental health podcast and a hypnosis podcast. I'm all for helping people get to where they need to be, but a lot of my clients over the last couple of months it has been very challenging for them because of the political climate of our country at the moment. So a lot of people have had anxiety and worry and stress and I will say to clients oftentimes you know what, if something is really important and you need to know it, you're going to find out Right. So just pull back from news, pull back from social media, limit yourself to a reasonable time per day so that you don't get overwhelmed with all of the bad stuff.
Matt Fox: 14:35
You could scroll, you could Google, you log into your email and there's the world's at your play it's right there, and it's all the bad stuff going on and it was just happenstance that corrals is on my facebook.
David Wright: 14:48
Well, yeah, yeah for something good for something good. But how, how? How often is that?
Matt Fox: 14:54
not, it's a mess, but you know I mean. But go on, I'm really intrigued by our topic this afternoon.
David Wright: 15:01
So, really, social media platforms were originally designed and now and I'll say this, I can speak for Facebook specifically as a social tool to keep people connected. That was what the original purpose was. So was MySpace. It has evolved to become a place for advertising. The only reason Facebook still exists today is because people pay money to advertise on it. Correct, your regular Joe Schmo, who's just a user and just wants to connect with friends. They don't make any money on these people, so they don't exist for that. So that's not I'm going to say that's not their highest priority as a business. Their highest priority is making money, which, like every business could. But the reason I say that is because what started out to be a good thing has been kind of warped into something that is maybe not good, depending on what you're using it for the, the entire platform, all platforms of social media.
Matt Fox: 16:02
They, they are changing on a daily basis and we as a society are playing catch up.
David Wright: 16:08
From two updates ago, three updates ago, well, and the other thing and here's the big thing about social media platforms any of them doesn't matter what you're on. They're designed and I'm going to use this term highlight the highlights. That's what they're designed to do for people who use them. And in a sense, it's kind of like, I think, of museums or curators in an art exhibit they only pick what they want people to see. Same thing with social media People only post what they want you to see. So you're never getting the full story. You're never getting a full picture. It is simply what somebody chooses to share with you. And the same thing happens in relationships where people might not be totally open and honest. They might just show you what they want to show you.
David Wright: 16:59
And that's where the problem becomes in, because what happens is it leads to comparison. And comparison is where the problem lies, because I can go onto Facebook and I can look at all my friends that are around there, or even connections to the businesses, and be like, oh, look at their house, oh, they're in Antigua, they're I don't know. Oh, they just bought a new, a new tractor, new truck or something Whatever. But it's natural for us to compare. It's natural for us to say, oh, look at them, what do I have?
Matt Fox: 17:35
I think the terminology and the phrase is keeping up with the Joneses.
David Wright: 17:38
Yep that's right and again. That can lead people feeling inadequate, it can affect their self-esteem, it can cause depression and anxiety, because you're constantly comparing yourself to the ideal. And that's what's online is the ideal? Sure, in most cases. The other thing that happens is once you connect with these social media platforms, whatever they are you know, I'm not picking on one, I'm just all of them we can lump them in together. What happens is now you start getting notifications and updates and your phone buzzes every time somebody leaves a comment.
Matt Fox: 18:12
Right.
David Wright: 18:19
Or makes or brings something up, or there's a news story that you've subscribed to, or a channel that you subscribe to, it starts now to to keep you hooked because of all these notifications coming up on your phone or on your computer.
Matt Fox: 18:28
I'm sure you're going to get to this but something that I have started to practice, because I I stopped, really, you know, posting on the social media a couple of years ago and I have never felt more, not relieved, but just a weight off my shoulders. I don't say you know what. If you know me and you want to know me, then then you'll know what's going on in my life, right, right, you don't need to see my post on on facebook, what have you? But I started treating social platforms like I treat my streaming services. I will only have one or two at a time streaming services. Right, right, I'm only going to use two platforms of social media. I don't need X, I don't need Insta, I don't need Facebook, I don't need YouTube, I don't need Spotify, I don't need Pandora, I don't. There's so many services out there and that's that's in.
David Wright: 19:18
When it comes to social media that continues to grow, because I mean the big ones we have Facebook, youtube, instagram.
Matt Fox: 19:24
Instagram Twitter.
David Wright: 19:26
TikTok X, whatever Snapchat.
Matt Fox: 19:30
TikTok, there's so many, but that's that you have to try to figure out and I hope you do cover this to minimize your screen time, yep this to minimize your screen time, yep, so.
David Wright: 19:45
So again, when we see this constant environment of people being successful, or people having money, or people having doing great in their jobs or great with their family, or my kids graduated, my kids become a doctor it is impossible not to try to, to compare yourself to the ideal that you're being shown, right, and then you feel like you're failed or that somehow you don't stack up to to all of your friends, and again it's easy to generalize because again people show you what they want you to see. That's the important thing, to to kind of remember. So the biggest things that social media can do as far, and especially I'm going to go back probably adolescence, into young adulthood. This is a big one, it's self-esteem, just self-esteem in and of itself, yes, and I can give you some real examples.
David Wright: 20:26
Okay, so, my son is my son is 22. He'll be 23 this year.
Matt Fox: 20:30
Sure.
David Wright: 20:30
And he had friends that he grew up with through school that he was like best friends with an elementary school and we know how friendships work, yeah, with in elementary school. And we know how friendships work, yeah, time and time and distance kind of separate those friendships, yeah, um, so he's not close friends with these kids he knew from from elementary school, although he knew them during high school and passing and and I'll give you one example one of his friends got really buff, started working out, got just stacked. I mean, yeah, you know, and of course you know, my son's a thin dude, he's probably six, two and and he has self-image issues because of that, which I can totally relate to. When I was in high school I was like a buck, 20, soaking wet.
Matt Fox: 21:14
Listen, I was the same. Yeah, I was short, but I you know, and in high school I thinned out, but I was so thin I would stick my my tongue out, stand sideways and I'd look like a zipper oh, good for you, so I get the self-esteem, yes, I understand that.
David Wright: 21:34
so so that's kind of a real example, something that that really is is is innocent. I mean, good for this kid, this other kid, but when you compare yourself, that's where the self-esteem issues come in. So, and social media has really kind of hampered people's ability to have a fair self image.
Matt Fox: 21:56
Yeah, no, you're absolutely correct.
David Wright: 22:00
Again seemingly perfect lives. You compare yourself to them. It just affects your own self-esteem.
Matt Fox: 22:07
It goes lower and then you feel bad is with the fact of I am who I am and it's it'll be tough, but I won't let other people determine my decisions to spend money or to buy clothes or what have you.
Announcer: 22:32
I agree, However, that and I will say, Matt, this is not an insult.
Matt Fox: 22:36
That's very idealistic Most people aren't able to do that I sometimes be. I can be a sith lord sometimes all right, it's all good, I'm listening to you, no more. No, that's just the idealistic that's like no, it should be a b and c no, but you're absolutely right dj and x. They have different you know so.
David Wright: 22:57
So the analogy I like to use and I've shared this with clients before social media is like watching a movie trailer.
David Wright: 23:03
Yeah I like that yeah, it's organized and set up so it looks really appealing. However, if you saw, the real movie might not be that good like captain america brave new world. I haven't seen it yet, neither have I. No, I but but but that. But that's the idea, because trailers always sell a movie. They make it so that people want to see it, right. But sometimes when you do see it, you're like meh yeah, you know what movie really did that?
Matt Fox: 23:30
for me it was an m night shamalan flick oh which one old oh yeah, yeah, yeah, the the premise looked amazing. No, no, it just was not executed. It was not. I was like oh, such a letdown.
David Wright: 23:43
But but even, even with him and again sidebar we'll go back to, I mean again, his first one was six cents, which blew people away. People knew it, I see. And then the village was kind of a predictable one. I don't know if the village was after or before signs.
Matt Fox: 24:00
I think signs came next. I think signs was before the village, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, I think so too.
David Wright: 24:07
And then the lady in the water. Was that another one?
Matt Fox: 24:10
That was one of his, yeah.
David Wright: 24:12
But again you, the lady in the water, was that another?
Matt Fox: 24:13
one that was. That was one of his.
David Wright: 24:14
Yeah, yeah, but but again, you don't remember those. It was because it was first time.
Matt Fox: 24:16
It's so shocking, but then you kind of come to expect it it wasn't a lady in the water, it was a lady in the pool.
David Wright: 24:21
Come on, oh it's crazy. Oh great odin's raven and mark walberg with.
Matt Fox: 24:32
You know nature attacking humanity. You know that was a, you know mark walberg, did he?
Announcer: 24:38
did his best with.
Matt Fox: 24:39
What was uh given to him? Yes, but you know it is. But then his other one that he just had with uh, the uh serial killer at the concert, I can't remember oh yeah, I, I know that that one, yes, I only saw the trailer. So did I, and I didn't want to see it because I wasn't going to be fooled again, because in the trailer they tell you who it is.
Matt Fox: 24:59
Yeah, I was not going to be fooled again, right, I wasn't going to watch a trailer that they pieced together to make it look good, because it's the same old shtick with the dude and that's social media.
David Wright: 25:13
It's the same old shtick. Yes, it's the same thing over and over again. You're right, and that is really just. It just magnifies surface level of achievements or accomplishments, but it doesn't give you the full story. That is the key, and that's why, when you compare yourself, you're always going to come up short because you can't look at yourself and not see the whole picture, right? So, yes, you're, you're never going to meet that expectation or meet that, that whatever image they're portraying. Sure, it's just not going to happen. Wow, go on what we're going to do. Okay, we got a couple more things of of how social media is going to affect you, okay, and then I'm going to tell you what to do about it. Okay, but we are going to do that because I want to get through to the help part. So what we're going to do is come back for part two, which typically we split these up into two parts anyway, because I want to give it the attention.
Matt Fox: 26:06
