from Couched In Chaos Podcast · host Couched In Chaos Podcast

In this episode of Couched in Chaos, Dr. Trisha and Dr. Tiffany dive headfirst into the wild world of teens and social media—where one TikTok can apparently ruin an entire week and Snapchat streaks feel more important than homework. They unpack what’s really happening to teen mental health online, how comparison culture is impacting confidence and relationships, and what parents should (and should not) be panicking about. As always, there’s a pop culture discussion with the celebrity on the couch, questionable trends, and listener questions that remind us we are all just doing our best out here. Whether you’re parenting a teen, loving a teen, or were once a teen who survived the early days of social media, this episode will make you laugh while also making you think. This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only and is not a substitute for therapy.
