Doomscrolling — the endless cycle of scrolling through bad news, frightening headlines and viral disasters — isn't just a problem for adults. Kids and teens are getting caught in the same digital trap, and experts say it's taking a toll on their mental health. In this episode, Adrienne speaks with Dr. Doug Fagan, a licensed psychologist and an Ambassador of the American Academy of Pediatrics' Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental Health. Fagan has spent years researching how social media and digital habits affect young people's emotional well-being. In this episode, he explains why doomscrolling is so addictive, how it can impact sleep and mood, and what parents can do to help their children break free from it. The conversation dives into strategies for parents to approach the issue with curiosity and empathy, rather than judgment. Fagan emphasizes meeting kids where they are and modeling healthier digital habits. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Since 2009, rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidality among young people have risen sharply, and research points to smartphones and social media as major contributors. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Johann D'Souza, a clinical psychologist specializing in OCD and anxiety, about what is driving this crisis and how we can respond. We unpack the four harmful effects of excessive screen time: sleep deprivation, addiction, social isolation, and distraction. We also explore evidence-based solutions that work. From creating phone-free schools to encouraging unstructured play and family screen detoxes, you will hear practical steps parents, therapists, and communities can take to protect youth well-being.

The mental health crisis claiming America's youth has reached epidemic proportions, and it's happening in families from all backgrounds. Our recent podcast delves into this growing tragedy that's claiming lives through addiction, overdoses, and suicide at an alarming rate.We explore how even "good families" with strong support systems are losing young people to these devastating outcomes. The conversation reveals how COVID isolation accelerated the crisis by depriving developing minds of crucial socialization opportunities that build coping mechanisms and resilience.The fentanyl epidemic emerges as a central villain in this story. This synthetic opioid, frequently used to lace other substances, makes drugs exponentially more dangerous – as evidenced by the heartbreaking story of seven West Point cadets who died after taking what they believed was Tylenol. Today's drugs are significantly more potent than previous generations, creating deadly situations even for first-time or casual users.Perhaps most troubling is how we respond as communities. When families lose someone to addiction or suicide, they often face ostracism rather than compassion. Some communities turn away from these families at their time of greatest need, while others simply "put their heads in the sand," unable to confront the reality that such tragedies could happen to anyone.The most powerful takeaway is a call to action: if you see someone struggling, reach out without judgment. The people who appear to be doing well might be fighting the hardest battles behind closed doors. A simple act of kindness could make all the difference. Don't be afraid to tell people you love them, give them a hug, and be there when they need support.Join us as we examine this critical issue affecting communities nationwide and discuss how compassion might be our most powerful tool in addressing America's youth mental health crisis. This episode ends with Industry News, stay informed with Towing News Now

Kpods, a street term for drug-laced e-vaporisers, has been much-talked about this week. Synopsis: Join Natasha Ann Zachariah at The Usual Place as she unpacks the latest current affairs with guests. Videos of vape users taken by the public have been surfacing online – in particular, of younger people – turning into “zombies” and behaving erratically after using etomidate-laced vapes. An anaesthetic used in hospitals during medical procedures, etomidate is classified as a poison, which can only be used by licensed medical professionals. In this episode of The Usual Place podcast, I spoke with my colleague and crime reporter Nadine Chua; Yio Chu Kang SMC MP Yip Hon Weng, who has raised multiple questions in Parliament on vaping over the past few years; and executive director of youth mental health charity Impart, Narasimman Tivasiha Mani, who has encountered teens using Kpods. Highlights (click/tap above): 5:37 You don’t need to tell sellers your age, you just need money, notes Mr Narasimman 6:37 Vape sellers market the devices to look trendy or innocuous 14:01 “If he continues down this path, it’s like he’s gone anyway.”: Ms Chua on how a mother shared about her struggle with her son who is hooked on Kpods 14:54 The roles – and limitations – of different government agencies such as the Central Narcotics Bureau and Health Sciences Authority 27:36 What could happen in the long run if we fail to act on Kpods today?

How we think and talk about kids and digital media use has evolved as we've learned more and refined better approaches that are more practical for parents.  Dr. Jenny Radesky, Co-Medical Director of the AAP's Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental Health, joins us to talk about "The 5 C's" - a straightforward and highly effective way for parents to manage this challenging topic.

In this episode we will talk about the Sport Coach+ initiative implemented in a partnership between the MHPSS Hub and the Olympic Refuge Foundation (ORF). The initiative aims to create trauma informed and healing centered sports environments for young athletes between the ages of 10 and 24 with a focus on those with a background of displacement. The first phase of the initiative focused on youth affected by forced displacement within and out of Ukraine and it was implemented across ten European countries and so far a total of 1400 coaches and trainers have been trained. The initiative is implemented in cooperation with Red Cross National Societies and National Olympic Committees.     The podcast episode will feature three guests: Guleed Dualeh, MHPSS Specialist at the MHPSS Hub, Anna Kachmaryk, MHPSS Training Specialist with the Ukrainian Red Cross Society, and Sabrina Hermosilla, Assistant Professor at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and member of the ORF Think Tank. They have been involved in the initiative in different roles and will share their experiences and perspectives on the initiative and the link between sport and mental health.  You can learn more about the Sport Coach+ initiative on: www.sportcoachplus.org. 

Step into the world of youth mental health with Mind the Kids. In this episode, host Clara Faria welcomes Professor Giovanni Salum, Senior Vice President of Global Programs at the Child Mind Institute and Associate Professor at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul.  Together, they explore the groundbreaking Brazilian High Risk Cohort Study, which has shaped our understanding of child development and mental health in Brazil for over 15 years. Professor Salum shares key findings—like the staggering fact that 80% of children diagnosed with mental health conditions in Brazil do not receive treatment—and discusses how poverty and positive traits shape outcomes for young people. The conversation moves beyond research, delving into Salum's transition from academia to public health leadership, the challenges of delivering care in a vast country, and the importance of community engagement, capacity building, and global collaboration.  Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion on bridging the gap between research and real-world impact, and discover why understanding local contexts and investing in strengths are essential for advancing youth mental health—both in Brazil and around the world 

In this conversation, Tricia Friedman and Rachael Mann explore the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on education, the workforce, and various industries. They discuss the importance of preparing educators and students for the changes brought about by AI, emphasizing that it's not too late to start engaging with these technologies. The conversation also touches on the intersection of AI with creative fields, the potential for AI to enhance career and technical education (CTE), and the need for a balanced perspective on the benefits and challenges of AI. Mann shares insights from her experiences and encourages a mindset of curiosity and experimentation with AI tools.
