Are social media depressing us? In a recent synthesis of research conducted on heavy smartphone and social media users, researchers highlighted a greater likelihood of suffering from certain psychological problems: anxiety, depression, and addiction. Today, I’m talking to you about 24-year-old Misha Agrawal, who just committed suicide simply because he didn’t want to see his subscribers and followers reach a million as quickly as possible.

(1) She just wanted to reach a million …

It’s a heartbreaking story, one of a dream turned prison. Misha Agrawal, a widely followed beauty influencer in India, committed suicide on April 24, 2025, just two days shy of her 25th birthday. Behind her smiles, tutorials, and colorful posts… an obsession: reaching a million followers on Instagram. Misha had a following of over 350,000 people. She built a community through beauty tips, candid videos about her hair loss, and a closeness that her fans adored. But according to her sister, Misha’s only focus was on the clock.

“Her only goal in life was to reach 1 million followers,” she explained in a heartbreaking Instagram post. “When she saw that the number was stagnating, that it was decreasing… she fell into a deep state of despair.”

The young woman, also the founder of her own cosmetics brand, seemed to have everything she needed to succeed. But the other side of the coin was much darker.

“She locked herself into this obsession. I told her it was just a job, that her worth wasn’t there… But she couldn’t listen to me,” her distraught sister continued.

The exact circumstances of her death have not been revealed, but her family confirms that it was suicide.

(2) Depression is real

This tragedy has reignited an urgent debate: the pressure of social media, the obsession with numbers, and the silent loneliness behind the likes. Misha’s sister is now calling for us to “take care of those we love” and “never measure our worth with a meter.”

What’s left when the lights go out? A talented, passionate young woman… and a stifled scream that deserves to be heard.

Depression is real, friends! Let’s love ourselves while we’re alive, let’s take care of our loved ones! Always!
