In this technological age, we have become entirely reliant on technology in all aspects of our lives, from work to play to health care. Every aspect of life has been made easier by the widespread use of modern technology.
Technology leads to innovation, and innovation makes things creative and unique. Dependence on technology can be the source of some troubles and stress, but it has also discovered new ways and developed new procedures for detecting diseases.
The Emergence of Work From Home
Because of the COVID pandemic, most businesses have shifted their work from home. In this advanced technological era, everyone is capable of working from home.
Since one thing has become so easy and comfortable to work from home, that has generated so many issues as well, especially with our health, which has affected so much.
New ways to create mental health awareness
Technology has created a lot of new ways to create awareness around mental health. Many smartphones and tablets are now giving doctors and researchers information without requiring them to consult with them in person.
Mobile devices have become an easier way to connect with doctors across the world at any time.
Health diseases due to isolation
Mobile devices and social media may cause several psychological and physical problems, like eyestrain and difficulty focusing on important tasks. Sometimes it becomes the cause of stress and anxiety.
During the Covid, people have faced huge problems and also gone through anxiety, depression, etc. This has happened due to working in isolation without interacting with people but also using a lot of mobile devices and apps
Two aspects of Technology
Everything has two aspects and pros and cons, and technology has given a lot but also created some issues in human life which ultimately affect our mental health.
During the pandemic, people faced this situation a lot, much like that time they were working totally in isolation. Sometimes it happens when you work alone and feel stressed.
On the other hand, technological advancements have enabled people to work from home using developed software and advanced technology.
Lockdown difficulties
Mental health is very important and needs to be worked on every day. Due to anxiety, people commit suicide, which has especially happened during lockdown times, when people give up and take their own lives.
In the technology sector, where people work so many hours to find something innovative, sometimes this work becomes the cause of stress, distraction at work, and their health is also affected.
Conclusion
Excessive use of anything leads to destruction. In the same way, excessive use of the internet and technology such as phones, computers, etc., poses threats to users.
Technology is a boon in human life that has made possible access to everything that was previously impossible. Now we can find the solution to such diseases that were hard to find before. Technology becomes the cause of mental health problems only when it is used to its limit.
