Quando o reel se torna mais real que a vida | Sona Kaushal Gupta | TEDxDIS Riverside Youth

Vidas online cuidadosamente curadas vêm tornando cada vez mais difícil distinguir a identidade digital da vida real. Esta palestra do TEDxDIS Riverside Youth analisa como os momentos vividos por meio das telas moldam a percepção, o senso de identidade e a experiência do dia a dia. Ela questiona se as pessoas estão de fato vivendo suas experiências ou se estão mais preocupadas com a forma como elas aparecem para os outros. A palestrante, Dra. Sona J. Kaushal Gupta, é médica, neuropsicóloga e defensora da saúde mental.

• Como realidades online curadas moldam a percepção
• Viver experiências ou exibi-las para os outros
• Bem-estar mental e prevenção do estresse entre jovens

In a world where moments are increasingly experienced through screens, the line between our digital identities and real lives is becoming harder to distinguish. This talk explores how curated online realities shape our perceptions, influence our sense of self, and affect the way we experience everyday life. It invites us to reflect on whether we are truly living our experiences or becoming more invested in how they appear to others. Dr. Sona J.
