Are You A Social Media Junkie? – The Journal Of Steffanie Rivers | VIDEO

*If you found yourself going through withdrawals when Facebook, Instagram or What’s App locked you out, you might be a social media junkie. It’s not cute! It’s pitiful. But enough about you. Let’s talk about the children affected by what the Facebook whistleblower called depression and suicidal thoughts brought on my cyber peer pressure.

Today it’s Facebook. Last year it was pharmaceutical and chemical companies. Before that it was tobacco companies. Choosing profits over the well-being of people is nothing new.
