Mental health

The program discusses the issue of mental health on social networks. They invite a specialist and an affected person to share their experiences. The specialist helped the affected person overcome the harm caused by social networks through self-esteem methods. It is mentioned that negative comments can affect us mentally and socially. Personal relationships can also be affected. They talk about a case of cyberbullying and the potential effects on self-esteem and depression. They recommend seeking help from a specialist or taking a break from social media if it becomes overwhelming. What is this? Today we are on program 24, a very special program. Exactly, as my colleague said, it is a very special program. Today we will talk about mental health on social networks, which is a big problem today. Exactly, and to talk about this we have invited a great specialist and affected person. Good morning, thank you for inviting me to this famous program. I feel very grateful. Good morning, I feel the same. We are so happy to have you here. These are two girls you will already know if there is a path for those who don't know her since her psychology is special in this topic. And I need to say, she is a famous influencer who publicizes posts of all kinds, especially about her daily life. Iris, tell us how you managed to not be affected by people's negative comments. At first I was a pretty toxic person on social media, but as I got, I became influencer and reworked, I realized how bad I was doing to those people. I comment to show if you are a person who does that, I hope that with this podcast you realize what you are doing. As for what they published to me, it was very difficult to ignore it and I walked into a state of becoming obsessed with everything they told me. When I saw that this was not help, I resorted to a specialist. It was Itaiza. As my patient said, I was the one who helped her overcome the harm that social networks did to her. Through self-esteem methods I live in social networks for a while, which is what usually helps her the most. As Itaiza said, I live in social networks for a while, is what helped me the most, I see users the most constantly. And did it affect your personal relationship at all? The truth is that yes, especially with my friends, as I was very irritable and I didn't like to talk about it. This symptom is usually one of the most common and usually bothers more than one relationship and you have to be careful in that sense because of people you don't know, you are affecting people you care about. It's surprising how some comments can affect us both mentally and socially. But does it affect us at all? Although it may seem like it doesn't, but it does affect us because we spend hours and hours blind to the screen. But it's not as important as the topic we talked about before which is what can affect us the most. Have any of you experienced a case of fever bullying or know of any case? I know of a very personal case that happened to my little sister when she was 14 years old. It caused a lot of demand to her self-esteem and her ability to relate to other people. The truth is I don't really think about the effects it had, but could I have any more? Unfortunately, in the most extreme cases, it can lead to depression. Fortunately, it doesn't usually happen many times. And last but not least, what do you recommend to a person who is going through a bad time due to critiquing on social networks? I, who have experienced it in person, recommend that if you reach the point of being obsessed or having an anxiety about it, go to a specialist or stay away from social networks so that it doesn't get any worse. I recommend the same, but as long as you can avoid reading the comments, do it. And with this, we finish the program. Thank you very much and it's a pleasure for Cami. Thank you. And thanks to all your listeners for listening to us. You'll join the next program. Translated & subtituled by Lic. Laura Virginia Mor.
