(Dallas, TX) — Mental health experts say social media addiction is real.
Dallas addiction psychiatrist Dr. Lee Spencer says for some people, Facebook activates the same pleasure centers in the brain that are turned on by cocaine.
Consequences of social media addiction include impaired sleep or feelings of withdrawal when unable to check Facebook likes or comments.
Experts say that can make people who no longer connect with their families feel isolated or even depressed.
