“I had a simple rule for my kid. I now realize what a hypocrite I am.” That's the headline over an article about kids and device usage written by Molly Mulshine, a young mother of a one-year-old. Mulshine begins by proudly telling readers that she never puts her phone in the hands of her child for the admirable reason that she doesn't want her spending time on or getting addicted to a device. But Mulshine was surprised when that little one-year-old got ahold of mom's phone, and in Mulshine's words, “started scrolling and swiping with the muscle memory of a bored teen.” Mulshine soon realized that it was the example of her own addiction to her phone that was modeling exactly what she didn't want to see happen to her own child. Mulshine offers up this question that all wise and concerned parents should be asking themselves: Will my excessive phone use make my daughter long for the sweet, lobotomizing glow of a high-tech rectangle, despite any screen limits I place on her? Parent, think about it.

If you have New Year's resolutions, congratulations on finishing the first full week of working towards your goal! Many people have resolutions that involve getting better sleep, deepening their relationships, working on their mental or physical health, or starting new hobbies. All of those goals and more can be supported by one big change — loosening our grip on our smartphones.

Initially, the upside to children having access to a supercomputer in their pockets seemed obvious: immediate access to the reams of educational information on the internet, seamless communications with their friends, a source of constant entertainment. But as mental ill health amongst our youngsters continues to rise, many are pointing to smartphones, and particularly the social media platforms on them, as mainly to blame.Today, we'll hear what the screen age is doing to our stone age brains, how adolescents and adults differ in their social media activity, and discuss what the evidence says...

I'm joined by Dean Burnett who is a proper Neuroscientist with a background in lecturing in the domain of mental health...so he knows what he's on about when it comes to the topic of addiction, and whether smartphone addiction is a real thing. Hint: it's not. I asked Dean onto the show because he's written a new book called "why your parents are hung up on your phone and what to do about it" aimed at the teens who are the subject matter of much of the current narrative surrounding this issue. Dean is a writer for the BBC science focus magazine and he used ot write for The Guardian helping people understand how brains affect us in the real world and so his latest book is discussed here at length. Dean recently appeared on a BBC Sunday morning show and was not given the time to explain about the current 'chicken little' of smartphone panic about them being an addiction so I asked him on the podcast to tell us about it... spoiler is you will learn some neuroscience about this clinical diagnosis and it might just change your mind = Neuroplasticity (not sorry- this is my small neuro-nerd joke here) Go grab a coffee and listen in, as this is a most excellent podcast to begin my first video version here on Spotify. So I'm calling it a new season so here we go! You can find Dean on social media talking about his work, cat and dog under the handle @garwboy and his website is www.deanburnett.com

Then they followed up with them two years later. The kids, who were insufficient sleepers Compared to the kids who were sufficient sleepers, had changes in their brain development, especially in areas like the basal ganglia and the temporal lobe. And this corresponded with worse mental health outcomes, worse behavioral outcomes, and measurements of intelligence were lower.

And they... analyzed, with a specific chemical test, how much melatonin these preparations actually contained. It ranged from zero milligrams to 20 milligrams. And in addition to that, about a quarter of the samples they tested had serotonin... Serotonin is what we call a precursor of melatonin. So serotonin is metabolized into melatonin." Erland, L. A.

Melatonin in humans could potentially have two different effects. It could delay the onset or the beginning of puberty development because it has these suppressing effects on reproductive hormones, or alternatively, if you stop melatonin use in a prepubertal child... you could actually trigger them into early puberty... We have data in animal models that suggests that melatonin has these effects. We don't have that evidence yet in humans...

The word nomophobia means a fear of being without our smartphone, and it's affecting more and more people with each passing year. Back in 2021, a phone addiction study by researchers from King's College London found that 38.9% of young people qualified as smartphone addicts. Many admitted being unable to control their usage and that it got in the way of other activities like work or studies.  So, what can people do about smartphone addiction? What about notifications?

In this episode, I dive deep into the ways our phones and constant digital distractions are leading us straight to burnout, affecting not just our own mental health but our parenting too. Inspired by a recent Mel Robbins podcast, I explore how excessive screen time floods our brains with dopamine, making it harder for us—and our kids—to tolerate boredom and truly connect. I share my own struggles with phone addiction, how I've set boundaries, and why it's crucial to disconnect to reset our minds and hearts. Join me as we unpack how to reclaim our peace, be more present, and avoid the burnout trap.Mel Robbins podcast episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0UmCZlyBjnjxw9lZsB1dSi (00:00:46) Dopamine Impact of Smartphone Addiction on Children (00:04:11) Impact of Excessive Screen Time on Mental Health (00:06:25) Resetting Dopamine Receptors to Reduce Phone Use (00:11:10) Parenting Mental Load and Burnout (00:20:12) The Dopamine-Driven Effects of Screen Time (00:26:32) Balancing Digital with In-Person Connections (00:33:20) Preventing Burnout Through Mindful Parenting Practice ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jamie's Courses⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jamie's Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Oh Crap!

The Social Epidemic of Smart Phones is one that has exploded over the past decade and even more since the pandemic. Today I cover many of the depths of why this is such a pervasive problem in youth sports and beyond. To cover this topic at a deeper level, I will be taking many of the findings from a powerful new book recently released by Jonathan Haidt titled, “The anxious generation.” I highly recommend parents and athletes who are eager to learn more to read this. Also, I will take data from my own findings throughout the past year from my work with numerous athletes. Lastly, other data and ideas will be used in this podcast from other reputable outside sources. If you are a parent of an athlete , coach, or athlete you will most likely find this podcast enlightening, beneficial, and perhaps triggering. But remember this podcast is only to help inform you to make the best decisions based on what works for you, your athlete, and even your family. As always, thanks for listening. 

Dr. McFillin and Dr. Ahmad discuss what they have been witnessing in adolescent clients post-pandemic. Is phone addiction and social media, particularly platforms like Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok, harming teens' mental health, especially when it comes to body image, self-esteem, and social anxiety? This podcast episode explores this question, along with the concerning trend of self-diagnosis and labeling normal teenage experiences with mental health conditions. Are schools and emergency rooms equipped to properly evaluate and diagnose mental health issues in adolescents? And is there an overreliance on medication as a solution? A call for parental involvement, including setting boundaries around phone use is highlighted and a critical reevaluation of the current mental health system for teenagers. It's time to move towards a more nuanced approach that validates teenagers' struggles and builds skills for living. Note: This podcast episode is designed solely for informational and educational purposes, without endorsing or promoting any specific medical treatments.

Guest: Richard Warnica, Toronto Star feature writer Richard Warnica sees it everywhere – business meetings, the subway, even at his own dinner table – the blank-eyed stare of someone mindlessly scrolling their smartphone. These devices, despite their increasingly documented negative effects on our mental health, have us firmly in their grips, and their utility and ubiquity makes it hard to envision how we'll ever kick the habit. But once upon a time, most of us smoked, too, and virtually everywhere (on planes, trains, at work, in restaurants…). Will we one day look back on this the same way? PLUS: How Warnica deals with it at home by thinking inside the (locked) box. This episode was produced by Paulo Marques, Julia De Laurentiis Johnston and Edward Keenan.

Sometimes, improving pollution... makes global warming worse. Also, women are more addicted to their phones than men, chimpanzees use military strategy — and one of our new listeners didn't like us at first.

The future of weather forecasting might have little to do with atmospheric physics. Also, our listeners had some really interesting things to say about a study on tattoos.

Some new laws are a step in the right direction!

In this episode of Therapy Show, I discuss the impact of social media on mental health, particularly for teens and preteens. I highlight an article by Jean Twenge and Jonathan Haidt, which argues that the rise in teen depression rates coincides with the widespread adoption of smartphones and social media. The Surgeon General's Office also released a report highlighting the association between social media use and harm to young people's mental health. I emphasize the importance of setting limits and rules around phone and social media use for children, as each family's approach may differ. As parents, it is our responsibility to put things in place that limit the amount of time our kids are spending on their smartphones and social media. I also share my personal experience of taking a digital detox and the benefits of disconnecting from social media. A digital detox refers to intentionally taking a break from electronic devices and screens, creating a designated time and space for individuals and families to disconnect and focus on activities that promote quality time and connection. Digital detoxes provide an opportunity for families to reconnect, communicate, and engage in activities that foster meaningful connections. I also highlight the benefits of taking regular breaks from screens, including better communication and bonding, improved mental health and well-being, and increased creativity and imagination. ​Better Screen Time suggests that parents of teens should use a slow and phased process with personal devices and smartphones and delay social media for as long as possible, reinforce positive choices and use poor ones as an opportunity to teach and connect, and create boundaries that work for your teen. For preteens, parents can reinforce family values and help children identify personal values, provide opportunities for children to pursue personal passions, build skills, and learn to unwind without a screen, and teach valuable tech skills such as typing, coding, graphic design, art, learning a skill online or connecting safely with friends and family on a family device. To prevent society's mental health crisis, let's let our kids be kids a little longer. Delay the smartphones. Delay social media. Give your family a digital detox.

The word nomophobia means a fear of being without our smartphone, and it's affecting more and more people with each passing year. After all, we're rarely separated from our phone over the course of a day, and even use them at nighttime.  Back in 2021, a phone addiction study by researchers from King's College London was published in the Frontiers in Psychiatry journal. It was based on a five-question survey, and found that 38.9% of young people qualified as smartphone addicts. Many admitted being unable to control their usage and that it got in the way of other activities like work or studies. Furthermore, not having access to their smartphone brought on feelings of distress. It's as if our smartphones are an extension of our bodies. And as if we've been amputated when they're taken away from us.  So, what can people do about smartphone addiction? What about notifications? How can I know if I'm really a smartphone addict?

Mrs ADHD returns to join Alex and James for an episode on use/overuse/addiction to smartphones in ADHD.   As usual, the episode includes brain-numbingly dull psycho-education delivered by Alex,  personal reflections from all three ADHD adults about their smartphone use (or overuse) and some 'top tips' on trying to have a healthier relationship with our phones.  'What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" returns with the new annual scoring system meaning Alex is 1-1, and Alex reads out the usual correspondence.  James likes heavy porn (apparently), Mrs ADHD needs 'more than one thing to occupy her (ding)  and Alex has a massive bedroom...Support the showWritten by Alex Conner and James BrownProduced by James Brown and Afatscientist Ltd.Social media contacts: @theadhdadultsMusic by Sessionz

Mendy and Eliezer discuss the use of smartphones and its widespread ramifications, for themselves as adults and also for their children, especially those in yeshivah, where common-sense delicate enforcement is necessary.

Do you feel like your child's smartphone has taken over their life? Are they using it too much and it's causing them to fall behind in school, miss out on experiences with family or friends, or just seem less engaged in the world around them? If this is ringing true for your household, then it might be time to re-evaluate how much access your kid has to technology.  

Facebook's Meta fined 265 million euros, a new study finds that smartphone addiction is linked with low self esteem and other negative cognitive outcomes, and the FCC bans the sale and imports of certain Chinese technology.

Ever since the smartphone became a standard accessory and even an appendage much like our arms and legs, experts have debated whether or not people can become addicted to their digital devices. The research evidence is quickly accumulating that says yes, all of us can become addicted to our devices. And like all kinds of addicts, we are typically willing to point out the addiction of others, while denying that we might have a problem. But listen to this. Some recent research from the Pew Research group has found that forty-five percent of our teenagers report feeling addicted to their smartphone devices. Teen smartphone addiction is very real and it needs to be addressed. We suggest that you hold off on giving a smartphone to your kids until they reach the age of sixteen. If earlier, give them a device that has limited social media capabilities. And set up borders and boundaries that will keep them safe. The way we use our technology is actually a way for us to worship God.

What was the first thing you did this morning when you opened your eyes? Perhaps even before you got out of bed?

Stay tuned for some interesting insights from four boots on the ground youth workers about what they see smartphones doing to their students, along with some honest confessions about what those same phones are doing to them. . . on this episode of youth culture matters.
