Is It Just Stress – Or Something More?
In today’s fast-paced world, feeling stressed has become so common that most people dismiss it. But when stress starts affecting your sleep, mood, or relationships, it may be more than “just stress.”
As a senior psychiatrist in Greater Noida, Dr. Debolina Chowdhury regularly sees patients from Pi 1, Eldeco Green Meadows, and Jaypee Greens who are struggling with digital burnout and chronic anxiety.
📱 How Social Media Fuels Mental Health Distress
Social media is a silent contributor to modern anxiety. Many patients visiting our clinic in Greater Noida report feelings of inadequacy triggered by:
- The Comparison Trap: Comparing your daily life to someone else's highlight reel.
- Information Overload: Your brain isn't built for 500 reels a day.
- Doomscrolling: Constantly consuming negative news, which triggers a "fight or flight" response.
🧠 Warning Signs: When to Consult a Psychiatrist
If you experience these symptoms for more than two weeks, it is time to seek professional help:
- Persistent sadness or irritability.
- Difficulty falling or staying asleep.
- Physical symptoms like chest tightness or frequent headaches without a medical cause.
- Withdrawal from social circles and hobbies.
