Description

We live in an age of increasing digital connectivity where technology plays an ever-prominent role in peoples’ lives. While social media can provide a platform for support and connection, we are all susceptible to the negative effects of overuse or misuse, particularly on our sleeping patterns and our mental health. In this episode, the second in a series on digital wellbeing, Dr James Waldron interviews Dr Alex Lai of the WorkWell Doctors about the patient perspective. It explores how we can: 1) help patients understand the impacts of social media use on their wellbeing during clinical consultations; and 2) suggest strategies to promote healthy use of digital tools.
