What are you thinking about?
I am thinking about interventions to maximize well-being and minimize ill-being incurred via media for youth and young adults, as well as suicide-preventative media.
Why is this interesting to you?
This is interesting to me because I believe that media is a big part of our lives and therefore optimization of its positive impact on well-being and mental health could make a large impact.
What are the practical implications for healthcare?
Providers have limited time with patients in their offices. They could maximize their impact by recommending additional media-based interventions for patients to try after the visit.
