Social Media: Overdosing on Attention
We live in a time where attention is a currency. You post a picture, and boom, within minutes, you’re counting likes, comments, and little fire emojis as if your life depends on them.
The dopamine rush from every like? Yeah, it’s addictive. But let’s be real: people are losing their damn minds over it.
The constant need for instant gratification on social media has turned everyday interactions into a performance, leaving people delusional about their relationships and their self-worth.
The Drug of Instant Validation
Social media isn’t just a platform anymore; it’s a drug. The second you open that app, your brain lights up, feeding off the attention like it’s candy.
. Got a few likes on your selfie? You feel on top of the world.
. Didn’t get enough likes? You start to question everything about yourself — was the lighting off?
. Did I use the wrong filter? Should I delete it and try again later?
