Jenn Simmons, MD argues that social media is damaging to health because it portrays an unattainable, decontextualized ideal. She claims posted successes are deceptive snapshots that hide long periods of struggle; she illustrates this with a mentor, Kellyanne Petrucci (described as ‘the bone broth lady’), to show that visible wins require hours of unseen failure and grit.

Chapters

Well, I think that social media is damaging on a lot of levels. First of all, I think that it portrays kind of this ideal that is unattainable, and it's actually not even real. Right. Because what people put out there is not even them. It's them in that in that moment of time. A dear friend of mine and a mentor, Kellyanne Petrucci, she was that. She's the bone broth lady. And she says that, you know, for every post that you see out there where that person is winning, there's hours and hours and hours and hours of loss and failure and grit behind that. Right. To get to that one moment of a win. And it is, it's very deceiving when you're on social media, because it just looks like everyone is winning all the time, and all you can be left with is like, why am I a loser?
