Social media allows us to stay connected with distant family and friends or access valuable information, but it can also have a negative effect on people. It can be addictive, lead to feelings of isolation and expose us to harmful content which can contribute to anxiety and depression. We recommend spending more time offline, and engage with friends and family.

Eating well, exercising regularly, getting enough sleep, and avoiding alcohol and smoking support our wellbeing. Smoking and alcohol are often used when people are under stress, but these addictive substances can make symptoms worse in the long run. Whilst they can create an immediate sense of relaxation, people who use them then experience withdrawal symptoms which can increase anxiety. Smoking is not recommended and Australian guidelines for alcohol use for healthy adults is no more than 2 standard drinks a day.
