Show Notes

May is mental health awareness month, and while most of us think of mental health exclusively as various disorders that alter reality for those living with them, mental health affects us all. One of the most prevalent ways that our mental health is compromised is through the psychological ramifications of excessive social media use. But what does that mean? What exactly is social media doing to our minds? How does this apply to those who have never experienced mental health struggles before? Should we all just delete our accounts? How can we protect ourselves and use social media in a positive way? This week, we are joined by our dear friend JoJo, as we break down the effects of social media on the mind, share our research on how social media has affected the population, and give some advice for protecting your mental health while using social media in the most positive way possible. So, close out those social media apps and tune in this week... you don't want to miss it!
