Last January,while cleaning,she tried to check how many bottles of face and body lotion(润肤 she had and was shocked to see how many unopened products there were."It's terrifying, she says."It wasn't until it was all piled up that I was like,'I could literally go years without needing to buy something.' Like many people in their 20s,Locker was sold a lifestyle by social media content creators. This lifestyle populated by a wealth of products has become so normal on social media that many young people like Locker think they should try to replicate it-only to find their homes filled to the ceiling and their bank accounts emptied.But these trends are impacting more than just the space and finances of consumers:Overconsump- tion may be impacting our mental health. Cathrine Jansson-Boyd,a professor of con- sumer psychology,explains that though we don't personally know the content creators on social media,we still compare ourselves to them.This, in part,drives some of us to buy more things than we actually need,even if we don't have the same lifestyle as the creators we follow online. We feel like we could become closer to them or feel better about our lives if we have similar clothes or something. "It's got to do with our self-worth some- times,Jansson-Boyd said."We are very social creatures and we compare ourselves against oth- ers all the time.And the fact is that when we en- gage in this social comparison,we're comparing upwards to someone we kind of think is,for whatever reason,superior to us." Locker admits that she used shopping to try and follow the example of influencers she admired to reduce negative feelings.She'd have a rough week at work and would spend time unwinding by heading to a department store."Then before I know it,I'm spending 300,essentially on junk food,”she says.
