HealthDay (1/19, Reinberg) reported a small study published in JMIR Research Protocols suggests that “turning to Facebook for help is probably the wrong move for depressed college students.” Researchers found that out of “33 students who posted on Facebook about feelings of depression, not one was advised to reach out to a mental health professional for help.”
Healio (1/20, Gremigna) also covers the study.
