"When is too much social media too much?" | Ask Dr. Brian

from KYW Newsradio Audio On-Demand

There is plenty of evidence and anecdotes out there about the harmful effects of social media overconsumption, especially for young users. And if there’s one time of year when the traps of social media envy are high, it’s towards the end of the summer, when feeds become populated with photos and videos of trips and other adventures. On the August 11th edition of “Ask Dr. Brian,” KYW Newsradio Medical Editor Dr. Brian McDonough examines the toll that too much social media can have on your health, and the red flags that you might need to scale back your scrolling.
