This is pretty much my exact experience with social media. I grew up in a remote, working class area. Many of the people I grew up around are lower SES than I ended up being. Of course, I'm the lucky one that got out of that so my relative well being is pretty high. Who knows what it would be like if I grew up in a wealthy suburb of a major city.
That said, I do find myself drained after spending too much non creative screen time. News sites, twitter feeds, fb, insta, etc. . . . Anecdotes and all, but the screen time hypothesis jives well with my personal experience.
