When it comes to looking at other bodies online, all of those images can cause complex emotions, says Almaroof. “For some people, when they look at their explore page on IG, all these bodies come up. For some, it’s damaging. They don’t know how to process it. They automatically go into this process of comparison. Those thoughts indirectly play into our self-esteem and how we feel. Sometimes we don’t even know that’s what’s happening. We just feel these feelings of anxiety or anger or frustration…we don’t know why.”
