Googling symptoms and self-diagnosing: helpful or dangerous?

Hey everyone 🙂

I'm currently working on my psychology thesis regarding searching for symptoms and illnesses online (basically trying to see how often people do this and how it affects them, you know?). I need participants over the age of 25, so if you could be so kind as to help out with this study, I'd really appreciate it! 😁

The survey takes less than 10 minutes to finish. If you're interested in seeing the results later, let me know—since it's for my degree, it'll probably be in a month or two.
In the meantime, feel free to shoot me a PM or use the email address listed in the survey.

Hope this doesn't take up too much of your day. Thanks so much for the help! 😁

Thanks 👏

Since we still need a good amount of people to join in, we've decided to drop the age limit from 25 down to 18. 😁

Well, I guess it's my turn to jump in too then 😬
