How much would it take for you to give up your social media? Research suggests it would take a lot (not even your pets are safe). Join Rod Stewart and Bryan Adams (aka Cody B Nice and Dunny Dunyel [in that order]) as they delve even further into the relationship between social media and mental health.

Hang in there on this one to learn more about whether the evidence defines that relationship as absolutely negative.
