Dr. Lee Mellor: Self-Inflicted Wounds and Societal Lockdowns Part 2

In Part 2 of this series, Dr. Lee Mellor and Jared Bradley address the effects of the internet, particularly of social media, on image management and highlighting how this affects people's emotions.

Social media has become an integral part of our lives and it has the potential to both positively and negatively impact our lives. One of the negative aspects of social media is that it encourages false impressions.

On social media, people often post carefully selected pictures that show only the best parts of their lives. They don't post pictures of themselves cleaning the house, doing mundane tasks, or looking less than perfect. This creates a false impression of their lives and can lead to feelings of jealousy and inadequacy in those who view these images.

Social media can also be addictive. People may become addicted to the dopamine hit they get from likes and comments on their posts. This can lead to a false impression of their lives as they become obsessed with getting more likes and comments.

That’s why it is important to be aware of the potential negative impacts of social media and to be mindful of the images and comments we post.

Dr. Lee Mellor is the author of the bestselling book “Cold North Killers: Canadian Serial Murder”. He is also a criminologist specializing in abnormal homicide and sex crimes, offender profiler, lecturer, podcast host, singer-songwriter, and the CEO of Grinning Man Media.
