Actor Takes Social Media Break For Health

건강을 위해 소셜 미디어를 잠시 접은 배우 

“I have 1taken a break from social media for my 2mental health.”

In a video posted on Instagram, actor Tom Holland says social media has been 3detrimental to his mental state. So he’s 4stepping back.

“I find Instagram and Twitter to be 5overstimulating, to be 6overwhelming. I get caught up and I 7spiral when I read things about me online.”

Holland has more than 67 million followers on Instagram and more than 7 million on Twitter, but hasn’t posted that often on either recently.

“Human beings are social creatures by nature, but just like all things 8there is too much of a good thing.”

Spending too much time on social media can take away from your ability to live life. Instead, “you’re just getting a 9running commentary on it,” says Arianna Galligher, associate director of Ohio State’s Star Trauma Recovery Center.

“Just being able to, to say, ‘I’m 10struggling’ and be able to find out that you’re not alone in that.. it is very powerful.”

Galligher says for some people being on social media isn’t a good idea in general. It doesn’t bring them the connection or joy they’re seeking. For others, stepping back and 11re-engaging in an intentional way may work better. She hopes others will follow Holland’s 12lead.

“And to everyone out there, thanks for your love and support. I love you all and I’ll speak to you soon.”
