Breaking the cycle

A broad social and friendship network can counteract these disruptions. Experiencing healthy group dynamics and having trusted role models helps individuals recognize dysfunction, build resilience, and learn how to maintain independence within a group.

A common recommendation for those trapped in disordered or maladaptive thinking online is to "touch grass"—a way of saying, step outside the online echo chamber. Get some fresh air and fresh perspective. The phrase “touch grass” is often used sarcastically, but it contains good advice.

Taking in a fresh perspective from a different environment or group can be powerful. Taking a break from the relentless online content treadmill can help to change the way we approach problems and reconsider the intentions of groups we are involved with.

Understanding why we’re drawn to self-preserving, yet anxiety-inducing, groups can help us avoid them. Being part of a social group, or cultivating social connection is good for us. Destructive groups often bypass rational decision-making, pushing members toward hasty conclusions.

The best antidote is to slow down, engage in genuine conversations with people from different groups, and remember that, sometimes, simply taking a break and "touching grass” is essential.
