'There's just nothing to talk about with someone who's perfect and and invulnerable and invincible.?

'Or you just portray myself in a way that's filtered.?

'Lots of photos with you and sunglasses are hanging out with a lot of friends'.

He went on that 'one word answers' to 誘発するs and 'just liking everyone' or 'waiting for likes to come to you' is another recipe for 災害.

Inauthentic pictures and one word answers are the worst thing to do, Justin says

'Our 誘発するs are designed to get you into a conversation and answer them thoughtfully.

'I've got some friends that are like those serial daters, literally 100 dates a year,' Steven said.

'And I'll sit with them and we'll 雑談（する） and they'll tell me, "Oh yeah, I have three dates this week"'.

'For those people I'd love to be able to get 申し込む／申し出d them some advice,' he said.

'I wouldn't やむを得ず just go on a whole lot of first dates, but I?had a whole lot of two to six week 関係s'.

He 追加するd that people were trying to 'fit a model' in their 長，率いるs that don't 存在する.

'I think some of us have models in our 長，率いる that are exceedingly 狭くする.

'They have to be like over 6 foot and they need to work in this type of 職業.

'And so you go out and you're just looking for some 推論する／理由 to say no because it doesn't fit your model.

'And I think the biggest thing is for us to change the model of what we're trying to look for and like 広げる? and give people more of a?chance.'

Late-night scrolling

The specialist discussed how constant 動きやすい phone use can negatively 衝撃 mental health through a 現象 known as 'popcorn brain'.?

This occurs when the 使用者 struggles to disconnect from the continuous flow of online （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状）.

She （人命などを）奪う，主張するd that our 願望（する） to scroll on our phones is a 'primal 勧める' to ざっと目を通す for danger which comes from a feeling of 存在 強調する／ストレスd.?

She explained: 'In 最近の times there's been a lot of bad news. In fact it feels like the 猛攻撃 of bad news, one thing after another, whether it's a 気候 災害 or a 衝突 in a 確かな part of the world or something or the other is always happening now.?

'The （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状） stream is 早い and 前例のない, and so we are 絶えず scrolling and scanning for danger.

'When we were all 洞穴 people, there was a night watch person. That person would sit by the 解雇する／砲火／射撃 while the tribe would sleep and that person would ざっと目を通す for danger to keep the tribe 安全な.

'In modern times, we have all become that night watch person and we scroll incessantly when we feel a sense of 強調する／ストレス because it is our primal 勧める.?

'It is the way our amygdala (parts of the brain 責任がある 過程ing emotional stimuli) feels a sense of safety because we are scanning for danger.?

'But we are no longer in a tribe, we're not 洞穴 people anymore. So what do we do? We scroll, tha t is how we are scanning for danger, 特に when we are feeling 強調する／ストレスd.'

Checking your phone frequently?

Dr Nerurkar 勧めるd people to stop checking their phones すぐに upon waking up, as this is 主要な to 増加するd 強調する／ストレス and 動きやすい phone dependency?making 強調する／ストレス even worse.

She said: 'Most of us check our phones 2,600 times a day, that is a statistic... When you wake up, before your second 注目する，もくろむ is even open, you are scrolling.?

'熟考する／考慮するs show that 6 2 per cent of people check their phones within 15 minutes of waking up and about 50 per cent check them in the middle of the night. I'm 有罪の of this,' she said.?

Dr Nerurkar recommends 限界ing your phone usage to 20 minutes a day, 'and 始める，決める a timer if you have to for engaging and 消費するing.'?

消費するing traumatic content

The doctor said 消費するing traumatic content on social マスコミ can lead to emotional 苦しめる, PTSD, and indirect 外傷／ショック, 特に for those working in journalism.

She explained: 'Graphic images and ビデオs on your phone can 増加する your 危険 of PTSD and mental health 条件s, as it 誘発する／引き起こすs the fight or flight 返答 and can lead to indirect 外傷／ショック.

'熟考する／考慮するs that your 危険 of PTSD 増加するs when you 消費する graphic images, even if that thing that you're 消費するing is happening thousands of miles away, like any 衝突, any 気候 災害, anything.??

'If you start 消費するing graphic images and ビデオs you 増加する your 危険 of PTSD, even though you have not had any direct 外傷／ショック because it's indirect 外傷／ショック that you're seeing.

'And so it's a cycle. The more ビデオs you 消費する or the more graphic content you 消費する, your amygdala gets 解雇する／砲火／射撃d up, your primal 勧める to scroll starts going haywire, and then you scroll some more, and then you scroll some more, because you don't feel 安全な. This is a ありふれた occurrence.'?
