When an Entire Generation Became Test Subjects

In 2007, Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone, and parents barely blinked. By 2010, Instagram launched. By 2012, smartphones had colonized teenage bedrooms across America. What happened next wasn't gradual-it was a cliff edge. Depression rates among adolescent girls didn't creep upward; they rocketed, nearly tripling within a decade. Boys weren't spared either, retreating into gaming marathons and pornography binges that consumed entire childhoods. This wasn't a coincidence. It was the largest uncontrolled experiment on human development ever conducted, and nobody asked permission. The data tells a story that's hard to ignore. Around 2010, something broke. Anxiety, depression, self-harm, and suicide attempts among teens began climbing at rates unprecedented in modern history. By 2020, nearly one in four teenage girls reported experiencing major depression. The pattern appeared across countries, income levels, and demographics-always with the same timing. This wasn't about economic anxiety or climate doom; previous generations faced nuclear war and economic collapse without similar mental health collapses. The smoking gun pointed directly at the glowing rectangles in every teenager's pocket.
