Almost 80 years ago, the Harvard study of adult development found that embracing relationships helps us live longer and happier lives. When our close relationships are healthy, they can enhance our wellbeing, happiness and sense of community.

Having positive and healthy relationships can help us navigate stress, protect us from both physical and emotional harm, and give us the support we need to be resilient and well. As we welcome the cool days of fall and the changes that are in store, we may also be struggling with how to meet all of our responsibilities while also nurturing the relationships that are important to us.

A MASSAGE OASIS

Social Media & Well-Being: CAN WE BE TOO CONNECTED? Laptops, tablets, smartphones, gaming systems: access to and use of social media is now a significant part of our daily lives. It can connect us, keep us entertained or help us navigate our increasingly complex world. At any given time, people across the world are plugged into their favorite social media outlet, may it be Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat or some other new app. When we add in the recreational aspects of online gaming, one can only wonder how much is too much? Parents are concerned about the impact of their child’s digital media use on his or her mental health and, at the same time, schools are increasingly utilizing tablets for student learning. Our desire to connect to others combined with the 24-7 access to the “information superhighway” can create a new temptation to manage. When does our use of social media go from a pleasant past-time to a compulsion that interferes with our work, family, and overall well-being?

4 liveWELL

We asked this question to one of our campus leaders,

Dr. Donald W. Black, Professor of Psychiatry in the Carver College of Medicine at the University of Iowa. Dr. Black is a clinical and translational researcher with more than 400 publications. His work has focused on obsessive and compulsive behaviors such as gambling addiction, compulsive shopping, and Internet addiction.

We have been hearing more about the compulsive use of social media and online gaming. Some are even referring to social media addiction. In your opinion, can someone be addicted to social media or gaming?

Yes, and in many ways this addiction is even harder to break than a drug or alcohol addiction. We’ve seen many patients, mostly adolescents, who are so preoccupied with social media or gaming that they are literally unable to do much else, including attending school or holding a job.

How much is too much?

There is no easy answer, but when the addiction interferes with the individual having a normal life, that is, attending school, having a job, interacting with family and friends (in person , and not online) then their time spent in these activities is too much.

What are the warning signs?

Warning signs for social media addiction include the person becoming isolated from family and friends, staying up until all hours on social media, ignoring family, school, or job-related responsibilities, even developing personality changes.

Are there folks who might be more susceptible to these problems?

Anyone who has access to an electronic device with internet access can develop these addictions. The typical age at onset used to be in the 20s, but is now in the teens as people are introduced to social media and the Internet at progressively younger ages.

Are people who find themselves having trouble controlling their use of social media also at risk of developing other problems like compulsive shopping or gambling?

They can. These disorders “travel” together. In addition, much of today’s shopping and gambling occurs online.

We know that social connectedness plays a large part in well-being. What effect does the use of social media have on the ability to build healthy relationships in “real life?”

Healthy relationships depend on face-to-face interactions. I’ve been concerned that for many people social connections are “virtual“ only; that is, occur on social media exclusively. I question whether these people truly have healthy social relationships.

What would you consider to be a “healthy” use of social media platforms?

A healthy use of social media is to enhance existing relationships.

These platforms can offer a wonderful way to make announcements, communicate, maintain social ties, etc, and sometimes to meet new people.

However, for many this is the only form of interaction.

How would one go about “detoxing”from social media or gaming, and what are the treatment options for someone who has a problem?

For those who feel their social media or gaming is an issue, a break or detox is necessary. This might mean putting the devices away for a period of time, cancelling Internet service, or having someone hold you accountable. It is key that the individual see a need to cut their use, and actively participate in developing face-to-face relationships. If gaming, gambling, or shopping is the problem, the person needs to substitute other meaningful activities as a way to spend their time.

Are you concerned about your social media use or that of someone you care about?

The UI Employee Assistance Program can help.

WELLNESS Wellness Heroes is a program to recognize faculty and staff members who are practicing healthy behaviors that are inspiring to others in the workplace. To acknowledge their efforts, a Wellness Hero will be awarded a certificate and a prize. liveWELL hopes to have our pages filled with Wellness Heroes in each newsletter!

Any faculty or staff member can nominate any other faculty or staff member. For more information or to nominate your Wellness Hero, visit hr.uiowa.edu/livewell/wellness-heroes.

TITUS KREMER UIHC NURSING SERVICE NOMINATED BY SHANNON HUNGER In this past year, Staff Nurse Ty Kremer has achieved a 50-pound weight loss! He did this through smoking cessation (initiated two years ago), running regularly -including two marathons, a few half-marathons, and numerous 5-Ks, and consciously drinking more water. He’s been a fantastic example of turning his health around through sheer determination and discipline.

CONNIE PHOMMALY CMED PEDIATRICS NOMINATED BY ANNE NIELSEN Connie serves on the department of pediatrics Wellness Committee and is a Wellness Ambassador for the department. She does a wonderful job incorporating wellness into the work day. She encourages her team to join her for short walks during break time and helps us to participate in some of the wellness center walking challenges. She also does small things like adding wellness messages to her Skype instant message such as “Replace your sugary beverage with water.” Connie is an awesome role model! I appreciate Connie’s dedication to wellness and all that she does for our department!

JENNA HULSER AND ALLISON DUNCAN UIHC NURSING SERVICE NOMINATED BY SHANNON HUNGER Jenna and Allison chose to exercise and train together to run area races in support of multiple myeloma and leukemia and lymphoma – diseases that impact the patient population that we care for on the Stem Cell Transplant and Cellular Therapies Unit. They plan, prioritize, invite, and have fun with it. They also post their successful runs on social media. It’s inspiring to see two co-workers fit this into their schedules and participate together! I’m looking forward to joining them and inviting other team members as well!

JENNIFER CLARK UIHC NURSING SERVICE NOMINATED BY SHANNON HUNGER The nurses on our unit had a chronic issue of not taking a ‘real’ lunch break. When we moved units, our leadership approached the importance of each staff member utilizing their lunch break to recharge. Some staff didn’t see it as a reality. But Jenny started her very first shift after moving, and every shift thereafter, strategizing staff nurses’ ability and planning to take a ‘real lunch’ each shift she works. If a co-worker doesn’t look out for themselves to plan this, she helps them think through their shift to prioritize and ensure they take a ‘real’, quality lunch break.

This has definitely benefited the wellness of the team!

Family Services:

A Caregiving Story with David Iglehart, D.D.S.

David Iglehart started his career at the University of Iowa, graduating from the College of Dentistry in 1983. David completed a hospital dentistry residency at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics and practiced family dentistry in Davenport for 30 years. After his retirement, he began his second career teaching prosthodontics as a Clinical Assistant Professor in the College of Dentistry.

Dr. Iglehart’s family lived modestly, and the children were expected to pay for their own schooling. As their parents aged, it became evident to David and his two siblings that their parents were likely to exhaust their retirement savings. Fortunately, their parents were open about their dire financial future. They trusted their three children to do what was best on their behalf and assigned powers of attorney to David.

Fast forward to 2014. In the period of one week, David’s mom fell and broke her hip while his dad suffered from congestive heart failure, diabetes and breathing difficulties. Once they were hospitalized at the same time, it became clear that it was no longer safe for them to live on their own.

10 liveWELL

“I felt lost and overwhelmed with no clue how I was going to figure everything out on my own.” At that time, David was introduced to Rhonda Halterman, founder and owner of LivWell Seniors. Rhonda sat down with David, his parents and his siblings to come up with a blueprint for their current situation and discuss options for their living situation. A common challenge faced when considering senior living options is understanding what is available for an individual’s financial situation and make projections using costs that are associated with different types of senior living facilities and services that may be needed down the road.

“The crisis that occurred with my parents was the greatest crisis I had ever encountered in my lifetime.”

Rhonda scheduled appointments for David and his family to tour senior living facilities and joined them on these visits acting as a personal and professional advocate. In the case of David’s father — a military veteran — Rhonda was able to recommend a little-known program through the Veteran’s Administration that provided substantial additional income to contribute to their living expenses.

“I never would have learned about some of the resources that were available to help my parents on my own. Rhonda really wanted what was best for my mom and dad, even though she had never met my family. My parents were comfortable with her, and we never felt rushed into making decisions.

I am eternally grateful for the knowledge and compassion she provided to help me and my siblings make decisions that were in the best interest of our parents.”

Are you trying to find options for yourself of a loved one?

Could you use some guidance on where to start?

UI faculty and staff can meet with a Senior Resource Specialist one-on-one or with family members at no cost. For more information about LivWell Seniors or to make an appointment, contact 319-250-1577, info@livwellseniors.com or chat the LivWell Seniors website: livwellseniors.com. liveWELL
