'I'd just been scrolling until the sun came up.' Jerome Yankey deleted TikTok in 2021 when he realized the app made him lose sleep, friends and his sense of self. CNN's VanessaCNN reports.

Jermone Yankey said he used to pull all-nighters when he was in college – not studying or partying, but scrolling on TikTok until the sun came up. “I saw me not putting the effort into my own life, rather just trying to live vicariously through what I’m seeing,” said 23-year old Yankey. He said he lost sleep, his grades suffered, and he fell out of touch with friends and himself. In 2021, he deleted the app. The positive impact, he said, was obvious.

That may only compound a longer-term rise in mental health issues, partly fueled by technology. Psychologists say as smartphones and social media grew around 2012, so did the rate of depression among teens. Between 2004 and 2019 the rate of teen depression nearly doubled, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. And for teen girls its worse. By 2019, one in four US girls have experienced clinical depression, according to Twenge.

Remember when The American Civil Liberties Union tweeted that Trump's plan was 'a danger to free expression.' Then remember when Biden reversed that? Now? LOL

My son Steven came home from school convinced that he had autism I asked him where he got his medical knowledge, tik tok was his answer, now I need answers.

Better the parents should control their children not too using too much with the social media, such as this tik tok platform trying to attract the teenager with their new games, which can be dangerous with their mentality

VanessaCNN the problem is there are no experts. They can’t even devise a scientifically valid DSM (says the NIMH!). TikTok today, like Facebook before it, is just a symptom. Raise kids with self-control & self-affirmation and all this silliness can be avoided. Parenting! EQ
