Taking social media also takes away access to friends when they are ostracized by people nearby. It reduces their chance to get help if they’re being abused or stalked. It further isolates rural kids and kids with overprotective parents who don’t let them go anywhere. So, unfortunately, taking away social media can also worsen other problems. There need to be safe social media sites that are properly monitored for harassment and bullying and hate posts.

I am very proud of that kid. Austin way to go. You are going to grow up to be a fantastic dude. Mental health is something that you should never be ashamed of. I hope they keep in contact with this young man.

What a great kid! I can see Austin helping a lot of other people and possibly becoming the same type of therapist to help children like him in the future, God willing.

You’re not wrong, but you’re also not quite accurate. It’s not the phones. It’s the algorithms used in the apps that promote what people are using and doing on those phones. I remember before all these huge companies had “monetized” everything, they hadn’t even thought of that word yet, and phones were just fine. That’s because they only did what you wanted to do on them - they weren’t sitting there constantly analyzing and manipulating you into contorting yourself into all these unnatural situations just to make the apps more popular or keep people stuck scrolling on their social media all the time. You only saw what you wanted to see and what you looked for, not what huge companies’ algorithms decided would make more money for those huge companies by soaking up every second of your life in your brain all the time. So it is the phones, but it’s not the phones themselves. The phones are only the source of exposure - the problem is the priorities and values of the people and companies putting the content on those phones. That has completely and utterly lost all humanity, and it is killing us all.

No child should have any access to social media prior to turning 18.

What an amazing young man Austin is. Very brave! Hope he is doing well.

Austin is very brave for speaking out.

Austin, you are such a beautiful, intelligent, insightful, articulate, compassionate and brave soul. Your big brown eyes light up this world young man. Your mama just beams when she looks at you and listens to your wise worlds. Her love for you is palpable. You are very special…truly a gift. Your essence reached right through the screen to this 60 your old mama in california and broke my heart wide open. I pray you will continue to improve. I can share with you that what my child and I both found helpful when going through our own very dark time was to stay away from social media, limit video game by a lot, get as much fresh air as possible, move your body in ways that you find fun (ie: scootering, biking etc) and stay away from the news. When someone like yourself is as sensitive as you are, the news can be overwhelming. I have convinced myself that the most important thing I can do in today’s world is just try to make my own little corner as peaceful as possible…knowing that that peace will trickle out. Lastly, as much as you can Austin, try to stay away from ultra processed foods…especially anything that has sugar in it. These things are fun and yummy, but our bodies and minds were not designed to process the chemicals and they cause horrific depression. It’s scientifically proven that the more fruits and veggies you eat today the better your mood will be tomorrow. I know it’s so hard, especially when you are young, but I promise you through my personal experience, it works. My heart is with you handsome young man. One minute at a time…I pray you stay with us. This world and your family need you. Sending love from California.

It breaks my heart to see children and teenagers go through this. Austin is such an intelligent kid ❤️✨

For 6th grade, my youngest decided to be home schooled after his bus driver unknowingly drug him down the street as he was caught in the door of the bus!!! He came in that day terrified. Of course the driver was very sorry. That was a growing year and at the same time a very difficult year as he had prior, many friends.... I did my best to help him, we got involved in activities but it still hurt that no one had invited him over. He grew in many ways that year and went back to public school. A year I will never forget as far as mental health.

I was a teen with clinical depression so my 💜 goes out to all of them 💜💜💜

I live in one of the top five populated cities and I kid you not that every single playground, park, ballfield is empty. I am 42 and when I was a kid the sports association would have to turn kids away because they didn't have enough teams. I also was once told I had .mental health issues in my late 20s and the amount of mothers I saw with 2,3,4 kids all running around, misbehaving has to be part of the problem, some mothers were even using their children to obtain medications to sell, relieve welfare, and get SS benefits. I can bet the amount t of people doing those things as is probably 30%. It is a shame that the kids who need the help don't get it, while the kids who might just need a father figure or some discipline are clogging up the system. That is the viscous cycle of relying on the government

We are, in part, a society that does not allow for the individual processing of extreme stress or grief in its various, sometimes slow stages. It is sometimes gaslighting to blame the victim and label him/her as mentally ill. It’s more compassionate and humane if it were authentically stated as: a person coping with extreme stress and grief is suffering and needs help and support. Adults and caretakers would be best served to also get assistance if they don’t understand their child’s grief or know how to trust and project resilience, healing and success. With the right tools and skills and ability to communicate, resilience is a natural human phenomenon.

I don't understand why teens say that the virus of '20 scarred them the most. Yes, I agree that year of lockdowns was miserable for us all. But if I remember, it was teenagers who refused to help "flatten the curve". In my city, it was the younger generation that would not wear a mask if they were asked to. And it was the same kids who looted businesses after a day of peaceful protesting. Again, someone (preferably a teen) please tell me how COVID-19 caused them such severe depression.

@SP-oj1ej

Not wearing a mask is rebellious behavior which is completely understandable under the circumstances. Their whole lives turned upside down. Add to that complete isolation and you have a recipe for depression. Two years was a long time for all of us. But two years in a teenager’s life is an eternity. That could be equivalent to 25% of their lives. Perspective.

Life is simply just too expensive nowadays What is therapy going to do about that?

Get the toxic chemicals out of their water, food, homes, and other environments, and you'll see their mental and emotional health improve almost overnight. The pandemic isolation may have made their problems worse, but those problems already existed and were not being either properly treated nor prevented. Prevention includes the State of Wisconsin cleaning itself up and making itself a safe place for people to live in.

Two words: social media

🙏 we all need help 🙏

Hopefully it’s really about saving lives and helping people and not making money and having control

Divorce also hurts these children immensely. If that woman wasn’t being abused/cheated, like most divorcee women aren’t, she has done a wicked and evil act unto her child by divorcing her husband. Selfish.

Just think about children in war zones !!!

Not to beat a dead horse four years after the fact, but some of us knew that this would be a problem when you shut the world down. I understand and forgive not knowing and having to make that tough decision as a leader. What I don’t understand is why, after we knew what this virus was, who was vulnerable, and where it was transmissible, why we still continued to shut the world down. There’s still not been any accountability, nor will there ever be.

Well-written.

Phones are broadcasting R.I.F.E Frequencies, That have mind control/hypnosis, which may be what some of these kids are being exposed to. Along with any other contributions, such as nutrition imbalances, not that the parents are neglecting nutrition, they may not know the specific needs for their childs body chemistry, inherited from a generation behind the parents?. Some ideas to consider.

Here’s my humble opinion…… I think it’s mostly due to internet!!! The stupid tik tok, content creators on you tube, young people are comparing themselves to one another, they may not even realize it, but they are! Plus….. the stress the parents possibly might be going through, everything being soooo expensive!

I will never sympathize or pity their "loss." Your interviewer selected middle class kids who, to me, were just whining about "loneliness and isolation" that naturally was going to happen during college or their first time away from home. Social media has really made a show out if the normal things that happen regularly, albeit sans a medical pandemic, which, ironically, was presented like an afterthought to the actual issue of kids these days who are desocialized and desensitized by too much superficial social media. Next time, interview the poor, too, for their stories.

Listen, being isolated at 9 YEARS OLD is much different from being isolated at 18/19 in college years. At 9 years old being isolated for 2-4 years is about 30-50% of their observable conscious life by that point. These are children, babies, have more compassion.

God loves you and takes care of you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this great universe and has complete control over it. And the greatest loss that a person loses in this life is that he lives while he does not know God who created him, knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. The great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and then you have the choice to believe in it or not. I advise you on this now before you do not have time to do that.
