Dr. Jody Carrington: The Loneliness Epidemic
Manage episode 431676399 series 2831575
Natural disasters like wildfires impact us in many different ways. On top of the obvious physical devastation, communities typically experience increased rates of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. This Real Talk episode with Dr. Jody Carrington is dedicated to Jasper evacuees and the people helping them, first responders, and the countless Canadians impacted by the Jasper wildfire. Later in the show, we talk about loneliness, tech, and true connection.
3:05 | Dr. Jody Carrington has a message for Jasper evacuees, first responders, and other people affected by the wildfire. She's got advice on survivor's guilt for Real Talker Travis (33:10), who emailed talk@ryanjespersen.com. Dr. Jody's got a great perspective on how we're in the midst of a loneliness epidemic in the social media age (39:55), how algorithms harm us (46:35), monitoring screen time for individuals and families (54:00), and ADHD (59:35).
