Thankyou German Wikipedia for deleting this article. As I said multiple times on my deletion discussion, I'm working on the poorer countries first. A volunteer is doing the rest of the Serbian page, and I sincerely thank him. I especially thank the collaborative approach of the chinese and russian articles, and i note that the Ukranian article seems to be most readable. I hope that the presently standing French, Spanish and Portuguese articles are improved by their wikipedias, noting that the Spanish are the only ones considering deletion at this point.

I thank the wikipedia bots for congratulating me today on the tenth translation. I however, am not the expert, many people and volunteers are. ~~~

Social media addiction is a medical condition caused by overuse of social media. In the opinion of specialists worldwide, notably Professor Dimitri Christiakis, the editor of JAMA Pediatrics, "while not yet officially codified within a psychopathological framework, (it) is growing both in prevalence and within the public consciousness as a potentially problematic condition with many parallels to existing recognized disorders", and it may be "a 21st century epidemic". He also states that "we're sort of in the midst of a natural kind of uncontrolled experiment on the next generation of children". The diagnosis of social media addiction is not recognised by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders. However, consensus opinion from experts in the field of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is that the unintended consequence of social media for some people was neuro-developmental problems in childhood and adolescence. This is especially notable with children who are genetically at risk for ADHD.

All over the world medical experts are working on this from a scientific perspective. Notably, the National Institute of Health in December 2018, completed enrolment of 11,834 young people in a large neuroimaging study, that will measure many things across childhood development including the effects of screen time. Social media has unintentionally often profoundly altered the ways that children think, interact and develop, some in a positive way, and some in a very negative way. Whilst mental health problems have occurred throughout human history, scientists are unclear as to the direct links between social media and mental health outcomes at present. They appear to depend on the individual, and the social media platform used. There is a proven overlap between the diagnoses of chronic internet addiction and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

Those with risk of ADHD are at risk of developing other neuropsychiatric conditions when untreated, especially in the setting of chronic sleep deprivation.

Social media began in 1997, with SixDegrees.com, which considered that everyone in the whole world can be connected with "Six Degrees of Separation". 100 million people had access to the Internet by 2000, and MySpace was the first true surge of use of social media following this. Facebook was invented in 2004, and has 2.27 billion active users presently. Facebook Inc also own the social media platforms of Instagram, and WhatsApp.

Internet addiction has been recognised as a disorder for a number of years, especially in the nations of China and South Korea. Most research into this disorder has come from the perspective of gaming disorder, rather than social media.

Some medical scientists have shown that girls and women are more likely than boys and men to develop a social media overuse disorder. Girls and women are also less likely than men overall to be treated for ADHD.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD, is a neuro-developmental disorder, that medical and allied health professionals treat in individualised ways. There are scientific connections that are being further explored between the diagnoses of internet gaming disorder, ADHD and social media addiction.

Neurodevelopment

From infancy until the age of at least 20, using the process of synaptic pruning, humans remove billions of neurons in their brain, as they learn and develop connections. There is current theory that social media for those who are susceptible, may affect this process. This may manifest in the symptoms of ADHD, which include emotional dysregulation, inability to focus, hyperactivity and restlessness.

ADHD is treated on an individualised basis depending on the person and their other pathologies, often successfully without any medication. It continues into adulthood for many.

There is longstanding evolutionary theory that the genes that lead to ADHD were previously adaptive, and many people have similar problems. Social media appears to have medically exacerbated these problems to the extent that all young people at any risk of addiction genetically, previously, are now at high risk of addiction to any addictive substance.

Strategies

Facebook and other social media companies have come under a lot of criticism over the last few years. Many people together will continue to work on these problems all over the world. These theories have been very controversial for a very long time. However, as the neuroscience rapidly develops, they become more proven.

Pediatrics

Professor Dimitri Christiakis, of JAMA Pediatrics, was the lead author for a family media plan available for anyone in the world to use.[1] He especially recommends that parents "avoid digital media use, except video chatting, in children younger than 18 to 24 months." Current research does not have a clear scientific answer as to how much is "too much" screen time or social media time for children. However, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends limiting children 2-5 years of age to "one hour per day of high quality programming". Professor Christiakis does not recommend ceasing using social media use and other technology use in children, rather recommending parents "have to be mindful is what is being displaced" by technology. He notes that early results in a study involving real toys and iPads at Seattle Children's Hospital are investigating a difference whether very young children more "easily give ... back" real toys or iPads, and research is ongoing.

Anthropology

Professor Daniel Miller, a professor of anthropology at the University College London, commenced in 2018 a five year study called "ASSA", the Anthropology of Smartphones, Aging and Mental Health, consisting of "ten simultaneous fifteen month ethnographies across the world." He notes that the effects of social media are very specific to individual locations and cultures. He contends that "a layperson might dismiss these stories as superficial. But the anthropologist takes them seriously, empathetically exploring each use of digital technologies in terms of the wider social and cultural context." He continues to investigate the effects of social media worldwide using technology, with the free online five-week course Anthropology of Social Media: Why we Post. "The course is based on the work of nine anthropologists who each spent 15 months in field sites in Brazil, Chile, industrial and rural China, England, India, Italy, Trinidad and Turkey." The University College London's Department of Anthropology also publishes free books on their current projects on the internet.

Writers and Artists

Dr Lynne Kelly in Victoria, Australia, published a book titled The Memory Code, which "identified the powerful memory technique used by indigenous people around the world. She has discovered that this ancient memory technique is the secret behind the great stone monuments like Stonehenge, which have for so long puzzled archaeologists." The Goldfields Library's Spring Program in 2016 promoted that "young writers can gain insights from (Dr Lynne Kelly's book), which cracks the mystery of Stonehenge." It also promoted that "seniors can take advantage of digital literacy programs to learn the intricacies of social media, online music with iTunes, eLibrary resources and more."

Psychology

Psychologists have been working on reinterpreting the concepts of smartphone addiction, ADHD and social media addiction for many years. An esteemed psychologist in Spain, Marino Pérez-Álvarez, published in 2015 that "a metascientific, philosophical assessment is required, with an ontological scope asking what ADHD is, and epistemological scope asking how science itself knows and molds what has ended up as the actual “ADHD.”"

The scientific journal Frontiers in Psychology has many research topics open for contribution and collaboration across the world in regard to these issues, notably in decision neuroscience, developmental psychology, and social media.

Neuroscience

Neuroscientists have noted "brain anatomy alterations associated with social network site addiction". The Trends in Cognitive Sciences Journal noted in 2015 that "Neuroscientists are beginning to capitalize on the ubiquity of social media use to gain novel insights about social cognitive processes." Neuropsychopharmacology published a paper in 2018 entitled "Identifying substance use risk based on deep neural networks and Instagram social media data". Nature published a review on "how data science can advance mental health research." It also continues to publish rat model scientific research on addiction. Many neuroscientific theories around addiction are considered to be outdated, with some remaining based on the Rat Park experiments in the 1970s, which were published in Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior.

Journalism

A significant amount of awareness of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and social media addiction has been raised over the last five years. Many journalists in the traditional and online media news outlets have been reporting on this for many years.

Technology

As awareness of these issues developed, many technology and medical communities continued to work together to develop novel solutions. The ADDitude magazine online page continues to support those with diagnoses of ADHD or similar, using the internet. Apple Inc purchased a third party application and then incorporated it as "screen time", promoting it as an integral part of iOS 12. A German technology startup developed an Android phone specifically designed for efficiency and minimizing screen time. News Corp reported multiple strategies for minimizing screen time.It was reported that Westpac New Zealand do not advertise on social media.

Psychiatry

As the evolution of psychiatry shows, it is not as precise a medical profession as others such as neuroscience. It uses the core principles of medical ethics to analyse, treat mental health conditions, and prevent adverse mental health outcomes. It also analyses its own constructs and diagnoses, reinterpreting them when necessary. Many politicians align with psychiatry as it does this, notably the current Mayor of Calgary, Canada, Naheed Nenshi, who in 2018 stated "we need to take a systems-wide view on mental health, on addiction and on crime prevention, and look at those things together."

The Canadian ADHD Resource Alliance in November 2018 had a congress that hosted many speakers, including Naheed Nenshi and Professor Christiakis, the editor of JAMA Paediatrics. Psychiatry continues to analyse, treat and promote awareness and prevention of these worldwide problems together. This continues to happen all across the world in many psychiatry and allied conferences and congresses.

CADDRA is a Canadian non-profit, non-industry organization. They state on their website that "CADDRA membership is open to practicing physicians, psychologists and allied health care professionals interested in the field of ADHD. Members join a network of health professionals in Canada and abroad." Members "receive a copy of the internationally-renowned Canadian ADHD Practice Guidelines; and access other benefits and privileges."
