The consistent use of ads, videos, and pictures by celebrities and social media influencers appears to have caused an increase in teens’ concerns about body image. Videos and pictures from celebrities and “influencers” are often “photoshopped” or modified to reflect an ideal image that just isn’t real.
This has led many to attempt adjusting their own bodies to match the unrealistic images through the use of dieting and excessive exercise.
Unfortunately, the result of these efforts may balloon into eating disorders or mental health issues such as low self-esteem, low self-confidence, depression, or anxiety.
Whether or not social media is the culprit, if you suspect your child or teen is suffering from an eating disorder, seek immediate professional help. Don’t attempt to fix the problem on your own. Also, remain calm and focused on listening to and reassuring your child. Help them find ways to practice self-love and boost their self-confidence.
However, if you believe your child’s eating disorder might be the result of social media use and influence, please contact the Social Media Victims Law Center today to discuss your legal rights and available remedies. The Social Media Victims Law Center works to hold social media companies legally accountable for the harm they inflict on vulnerable users. Reach out to us today and schedule a free consultation.
