Question

Stacy consults a therapist for help with depression and life dissatisfaction. The therapist notes that Stacy spends a lot of time on social and little face-to-face time with friends. She is likely to advise Stacy to _____ in order to achieve better balance in her life.

Answer 1

She is likely to advise Stacy to monitor her time online in order to achieve better balance in her life.

Explanation:

The time spend in social media by Stacy should be monitored. Removing social media apps from your phones or tabs would allow you to use it less and less. People have a tendency to check their social when they wake up, in-between work/study and before they go to sleep. It delays your sleep and causes you to lose hours of sleep a human body needs.

Furthermore, social media depicts everything 'perfect' and people often get affected by it on a psychological level. It can be one of the main reasons why people fall into depression.
