WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA ADDICTION

Signs And Symptoms Of YouTube Addiction
Social media addiction is not an official diagnosis in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). However, several assessment tools have been created to help determine if you or a loved one is struggling with an addiction to YouTube. One of these assessments, developed by a study in the International Journal of Mental Health and Addiction, is the YouTube Addiction Scale (YAS).

According to the YAS, there are six core components to look for:
• Salience — Do you consider YouTube engagement the most important activity in your day?
• Mood modification — Do you use YouTube to cope with difficult moods?
• Tolerance — Has your time on YouTube gotten increasingly more frequent to get the same desired effect?
• Withdrawal — Do you feel unpleasant when not using YouTube?
• Conflict — Is your continued YouTube engagement causing interpersonal conflicts?
• Relapse — Have you tried to reduce your use of YouTube only to revert to previous usage?

* Answering ‘yes’ to one or more of the assessment items could indicate a YouTube addiction.
