Anxiety Therapy Orlando: Digital Wellness

Anxiety Therapy Orlando: Digital Wellness

Written by: Lauran Hahn, LMHC

You’re anxious and edgy. You’ve tried to limit your screen time, but picking up your phone almost feels like a compulsion. You set out with the best of intentions, but before you know it, you’re scrolling at red lights, at the park with your kids, and even when out with friends. After you set a limit, you rationalize breaking it because you’re waiting on an important work email or you posted an engaging post on social media. Regardless of the reason, it’s a slippery slope because before you know it, you’re checking the portals nonstop again.
