מחקר: מחצית מהעצות הנוגעות לבריאות הנפש בטיקטוק הן כוזבות

A study by news outlet The Guardian finds that more than half of the trending mental health advice on TikTok is false. And that's a big problem as more and more people turn to the app for news and other information. Over in the UK, British politicians and experts are urging their government to strengthen regulations. British psychologist Amber Johnson said each video is guilty of suggesting that everyone has the same experience of PTSD with similar symptoms that can easily be explained in a 30-second reel. TikTok responded saying the study opposes free expression of mental health information. The app also claims it works with health organizations to take down 98% of harmful misinformation before it's reported. The app faces several lawsuits in the U.S. accusing it of harming children's mental health and causing depression and anxiety.
