UPDATE: Snapchat Car Accident Lawsuits

The lawsuit claims that the girl “struggled for more than two years with an extreme addiction to Instagram and Snapchat.” She suffered from severe depression, mental health problems, sleep deprivation, school absences, and eating disorders, before her tragic suicide in July 2021.

Another Snapchat Lawsuit Filed for Mental Health Issues

What is Snapchat?

Snapchat is a social media app in which users share pictures and videos (called “snaps”) that are only available for a short time before they disappear. Snapchat has over 100 million users in the U.S., mostly teenagers and young adults under 25 years old.

What is the Problem?

Social media apps are addictive by design. They can certainly have positive effects, like helping people stay connected to friends who are far away — but social media can also have a dark side.

Young people can easily spend hours scrolling through their phone, becoming more and more addicted as they consume content from friends, celebrities, and brands.

They can also develop mental health disorders (anxiety, body image issues, depression etc.) as their emotions become manipulated by the content they view and the responses they get.
