About

Internationally acclaimed behavioral science and social media expert Dr. Brian Primack, MD, PhD, makes the realist's argument that we do not need to give up social media, delete all of our online accounts, or discard our phones to live healthier, happier lives. Dr. Primack shows how what we consume online affects our well-being, and in response he gives us a personalized "tech diet" for enjoying a balanced relationship with social media.

Arming readers with new, evidence-based research, You Are What You Click teaches us why many of our current social media habits may be making us feel more alone and depressed. He then empowers us to take back control by being selective about the way we spend our time online.

Primack's research reveals how surprising nuances may modify the effect of social media use, such as our personality traits, how many different platforms we use, and whether we've met our social media friends face-to-face.
