Romanticization Rhetoric:The Concept Construction of Depression on Social Media and Social Consequences
The term depression has emerged as a phenomenon of public interpretation on social media in recent years,extending from the medical domain into popular culture and gradually spreading across various levels of society.By focusing on the societal prevalence of the concept of depression,and examining its media representation and discourse production on social media,a unique landscape of de-pression-related discourse becomes evident,characterized by a complex and diverse model of discourse production.Empowered by new media,this model disrupts the monopoly on discourse by pharmaceuti-cal companies,medical associations,and experts,allowing individuals with personal experience of de-pression or potential sufferers to contribute to the construction of medical knowledge and gain partial interpretive authority over the disease.In this process,the concept's diffusion may inevitably lead to negative influences,highlighting the need for systematic observation and analysis in research.
