Socializing is good for mental health. Who would've thought!
Does getting in pointless arguments online count as socializing?
Asking for a friend
Probably not when it comes to mental health in general. But when it comes to "complete social isolation will make you go crazy" it probably counts—someone stuck in solitary confinement might relish in the opportunity to get in a pointless internet argument because at least it's interacting with another human.
In Ireland "socializing" is a euphemism for going out for a drink (or many). Point is : no :/
