So watching
the deadly mayhem
of the fire
and church shooting in Michigan
was so much
and then it's on endless
loop in social media.
How much does that
endless loop
wear on people?
You know
we know that
the frequency of how much
you see trauma or
experience trauma matters
so that repetition
of violence
really can impact
somebody quite significantly.
And it's normal
for them to then start
to experience anxiety
or fear
or really a threat
to their sense of safety
even if it wasn't
you who experienced
the violence per se.
And so the shock
of assassinations
and school shootings
is obviously so
deeply disturbing.
Should people not
directly involved
sit with that
or move along?
Yeah
we would encourage that
you can't necessarily
always escape
the bad things
happening in life
or media.
And you want
to be informed, but it's
definitely important
to take breaks.
I would argue that taking
those social media breaks
and really making sure
you're engaged
with your day-to-day life.
Your loved ones
and family
can really keep
you grounded
when navigating so
much tension
in this world.
