Addiction to social networks

Demeevka works with this service confidentially and without judgement. First it is important to assess the person's condition, the risks and motivation and to choose the form of help that is appropriate right now.

Social media addiction

Social media addiction is a compulsive need to constantly check the feed, react to notifications and compare yourself with others. It increases anxiety, lowers self-esteem and disrupts sleep, and going without it brings irritability and restlessness.

At the first stage we assess the effect on sleep, mood and concentration, and any anxiety or low mood.

When to seek help

When you cannot put the phone down, feel anxious without access, and your sleep and self-esteem get worse.

How we help

The basis is psychotherapy and work on anxiety; with marked anxiety, anxiety disorder treatment.
