Jennifer Walter | Sociologist 🇨🇭 @itsjenniferwalter.bsky.social · 11/01/2025Science check: Constant social media use floods your brain with dopamine until your baseline drops below normal. That emptiness you feel? It's not depression - your brain literally can't produce enough dopamine for everyday joy anymore. 1121
