Why Un-Social Media is Making Teens Depressed and Lonely - with Patrick Ney

We love it, we hate it but most of all, we want to believe we have control over social media. Unfortunately, our relationship with social media isn't that easy and for adolescent brains, it can be even harder than adults. Learn about how un-social, social media is for us. What we discuss in this episode with Patrick Ney: - Research data showing the correlation with depression and loneliness  - The Law of Incremental Gains and how to use it to make change - The concept of Locus of Control and why blaming others does nothing to improve our situation - Opportunities for change that both parents and teens can implement.
