Studies have proven time and time again that social media is harmful for teens’ mental health — but what they don’t show is that social media can also facilitate a positive, supportive, amazing community.
Instagram is working to draw attention to those positive aspects by having its popular influencers – from Ariel Martin (Baby Ariel) to Girl Meets World‘s Corey Fogelmanis – read kind comments left by their followers in an uplifting new video.
“You’re caring, helpful, humble, and you still have that fire in you,” Ariel reads one comment addressed to her aloud, “And it’s not a forest fire, either. It’s just a bonfire that gives you beautiful attitude.”
Ariel smiles in response. “I think that was one of the best things I’ve read ever, I love that.”
“That means everything,” Corey says, clutching his heart, when he reads his positive comment.
Watch the full uplifting video below — and prepare for all of the feels.
