How to use it

The average link between social media and wellbeing is small, but cutting back helped in trials. Test it yourself: about 30 minutes a day of feeds for three weeks, mood logged before and after. And by the end of the day, have made more than you scrolled.

How sure we are

P Evidence: promising. Good studies, but small or few. Use it and keep checking.

S Evidence: strong. Large trials or many studies, pointing the same way.
