Open calculator estimating social media's mental-health costs

Suffering.social is an interactive research tool that estimates the economic burden of social media's effects on mental health in the United States since 2009. Users adjust assumptions about mortality, depression prevalence, and attribution to see how estimates change, exploring the relationship between observed health trends and social media expansion.
The calculator combines published research, government data, and economic valuations to generate a total cost figure. It presents nine adjustable parameters—from excess deaths to years lived with depression—each with evidence-based ranges and source citations. The maker built it with Cursor, an AI coding tool.
