Do you find yourself losing valuable time to scrolling each day? Do you often compare yourself to others on your social media feed or get distracted by watching things that drain your energy and focus?  Risa Williams talks to CBT psychologist and book author of The Stocism Workbook, Dr. Scott Waltman, about learning to use daily social media in a more intentional way.

-How social media influences discussions about mental health topics
