Hey everyone, and welcome to Top Think. Today, we're going to learn about how social media is destroying our brains.

Now, let's begin. Number one, editing our lives.

Life is full of important moments. Think on your favorite vacations, on holiday dinners with your family, on the biggest stepping stones in your career.

These are the kinds of moments that you want to remember forever, right? But for many people, just remembering isn't good enough.

They want a physical reminder of what those moments felt like. So they take pictures, they record videos and they keep souvenirs.

These reminders transport them back in time, letting them relive the joy, beauty or surprise of a single moment from their past. But when you start posting those photos on social media, something strange happens.

You stop focusing on the moment itself, you stop remembering what really happened and you start thinking about what you can change. You start cutting photos you don't look your best in, even if that photo makes you laugh or cry.

You start doctoring how your experiences looked or felt. Why is that?

Because you want other people to see how perfect and powerful your life is? Many people on social media are so focused on displaying perfection that their real-life gets lost in the mix.

The person on their profile may resemble an idealized version of themselves. They've changed their whole life just to impress a bunch of people on the internet.
