But research shows something very different is actually causing anxiety and depression in teens. In this episode, biopsychologist Dr. Peter Gray reveals what 83% of anxious teens actually cite as their primary source of stress—and it's not what you think. He breaks down decades of research, challenges the popular narrative about social media, and explains why we keep blaming new media instead of looking at the real problem.
