I have anxiety disorder: potential dangers of inappropriate media, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not sure that I: Understand what you mean by "potential dangers of inappropriate media". However, one thing is for sure - there are many upsetting and anxiety producing images and scenes on tv, u- tube, movies, newspapers, etc. I recommend that my patients avoid or limit contact with media with this type of content if it impacts their symptoms. If this is not what you were asking about then please clarify ; re-ask.
