                 Today’s newsletter is all about mental health. The stigma isn’t gone, but it’s weakened, and there are increasingly new ways to talk about and treat a number of mental health issues. We’ve got it all covered: social media’s moment of reckoning, AI in therapy, psychedelics, beta blockers, wearable stress detection, and more. Read on for a deep dive into the ever-evolving world of mental health treatment in 2026.

                 It’s official: brain rot from doomscrolling has replaced tooth decay from candy as the top concern for parents. Worried adults are holding social media companies’ feet to the fire as US teens’ scrolling time exceeds five hours a day, on average, and

                 One recent study found that 18- to 24-year-olds who reduced their social media usage to an average of half an hour a day experienced lower rates of depression, anxiety, and insomnia. Many teens don’t need adults to tell them they have a problem: In 2024, 48% of teens ages 13 to 17 said social media has a negative effect on them, up from 32% in 2022, per Pew Research Center. Even many tech CEOs say they restrict their kids’ social media usage.

                 On top of their legal troubles, social media companies are now seeing their products yanked out of young users’ hands in the US. Phones are now banned in schools in 27 states, as well as in several major districts, including New York City.

                 Meanwhile, some countries have decided they want kids to touch grass 24/7. Australia became the first country to ban social media usage for kids under 16 last year, with Austria and Denmark preparing similar measures. Dozens of other countries are considering their own bans.

Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, TikTok, and X made $11 billion selling ads that targeted kids and teens in 2022, according to an estimate by Harvard School of Public Health researchers.

                 EMDR—Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing—is a relatively new mainstream therapy option that was developed to help people deal with traumatic memories. Created in 1987, the core treatment is

                 </a>
                 , which involves side-to-side eye movements combined with sounds and/or repeated physical touch, like tapping your shoulders. This replicates aspects of REM sleep: The therapy has been compared to the feeling of going to sleep angry at your partner and waking up and feeling better the next morning.

                 Companies developing psychedelic drug therapies popped off, advocates cheered, and everyone wondered how we got here from a full-fledged war on drugs that dominated much of the 20th century. One day, your trek to an eco-lodge in Peru where a shaman gives you juice that lets you feel colors could, in theory, be covered by insurance.

                 Some researchers have found evidence that psychedelics can benefit patients with treatment-resistant depression, substance use disorders, and PTSD, especially in veterans. But the medical benefits of drugs like LSD, ecstasy, and other so-called magic mushrooms are nearly impossible to study in the US, as most psychedelic compounds are currently listed as Schedule I drugs with no accepted medical use in the US.

                 Beta blockers only calm the physical symptoms of stress and anxiety, not the racing thoughts, so they aren’t considered a proper substitute for anti-anxiety or antidepressant medications, like SSRIs. And don’t plan on cliff jumping, either. Since the drug slows your heart rate, it can make you feel light-headed or tired, especially if you’re exercising.
