Social Media's Impact on Mental Health and Wellbeing

Health Matters is a weekly radio show sponsored by the Medicine Center Pharmacy on WHBC 1480 AM in Canton, Ohio. This episode pharmacists Brad White and Paul White discuss social media's impact on mental health with Leslie Korns, Licensed Social Worker and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Sarah Garbrandt, Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Independent Clinical Dependency Counselor both with Chrysalis Counseling Center.

Join us on this program to learn answers to these questions:

1. When it comes to screen time and social media time, how much time is too much?

2. Is it even possible to limit social media time that much with our kids?

3. Why would a person feel more isolated or alone when they are communicating with someone online?

4. How does one monitor the appropriateness of all the things that their kids look at?

5. How does being on social media promote anxiety or depression?
