Is there any withdrawal going on? The study looked at people who use social media frequently, and people who don't use social media frequently. It didn't specifically look at people who recently quit using social media.
- dgfitz 2y agoI think withdraw isn't from quitting... it's from not getting "a hit" before symptoms set in. I figured this was implied.
- Thorrez 2y agoI guess your point is that frequent social media users are in a constant state of withdrawal because the second they stop using it, they go into withdrawal. Is that what happens with smokers/drinkers? Are smokers/drinkers considered to be in a constant state of withdrawal? I always thought withdrawal symptoms happen when someone tries to quit. I didn't think they happen constantly.
