Social Media and You: What Your Posts Say About Your Mental Health
Stuart Teicher is back again with this brand-new program that uses social media to explore a number of mental health issues facing the legal community. Mental health issues manifest themselves uniquely in the practice of law – and it is important that you recognize these issues both in yourself and your colleagues.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from Stuart Teicher as he uses screenshots from his own Facebook posts to discuss the mental health issues found throughout the legal practice. While many of his posts are funny, several display anxiety, compassion fatigue, burnout, substance abuse, and more. Topics include: how anxiety can interfere with our ability to lead a normal life; how anxiety can be intertwined with substance abuse and depression – making it more difficult to identify and treat; understanding stress and burnout – and how they feed off of each other; the physical and emotional signs of burnout; the underlying cause of burnout and how you can heal yourself from it; depression and suicide; how to manage anger and stress; and much more.
