At six o’clock sharp the curtain rises at Southside Cultural Center, in Reno. Two hundred audience
members, including the mayor of Reno, look to the stage. Dozens ofactors break outinto the first number
ofTheLionKing.
But this is not a usual production. The gifted actors are homeless children living at the Volunteers of

The social media platform Instagram once made headlines for limiting likes in an effort to reduce the
comparisonsandhurtfeelingsresultingfromattachingpopularitytosharingcontent.It’sasmallstepinthe
right direction, says Jacqueline Sperling, a psychologist who works with youth who experience anxiety
disorders.
Socialmedia has a strengthening nature.The platforms are designed to beaddictive. Accordingto the
Pew Research Center, 69% of adults and 81% of teens in the U.S. use social media. This puts a large
amount of the population at an increased risk of feeling anxious, depressed, or ill over their social media
use.Butwhatmakesuserscomebackformoreevenwhenitcanliterallymakethemfeelsick?

with the hope of receiving positive feedback. When reviewing others’ social activity, people tend to make
comparisons suchas, “Did Iget as many likes as someone else?” or “Why didn’t this person like my post,
but this other person did?” They’re searching for validation on the internet. FOMO—fear of missing
out—also playsa role.If everyone elseis usingsocialmedia sites,andif youdon’tjoinin, there’s concern
thatyou’llmisschats,jokes,connections,orinvitations,whichcancreateanxietyanddepression.

In addition to limiting likes, as Instagram has done, Sperling suggests social platforms consider
decreasing mass sharing. They might function more as messaging services by highlighting one-on-one

tomatoes, check if your area has the right climatic conditions for this purpose. 36 And if it doesn’t,
justgiveupthisidea.
There are two ways for you to grow tomatoes. 37 The seeds usually take six to eight weeks to
grow. If you don’t know how to grow tomatoes from seed, you can consider buying the plants directly.
