Instagram generation confusing anxiety and stress for mental health condition 

Instagram generation confusing anxiety and stress for mental health condition. James Dahl, master of Wellington College, warns that the “over pathologisation” on social media is causing young people to wrongly self-diagnose normal stress and anxiety as mental health conditions. He has criticised unqualified “armchair diagnoses” and self-diagnosis tools on platforms like Instagram, arguing they often mistake regular teenage mood swings for mental health issues. Wellington College is reportedly assisting students to understand their emotions amidst these concerns.
