How To Break Your Phone Addiction - Greer Heath
Introduction
The contemporary world has given us many fantastic inventions that have made our lives easier.
Household duties that used to take all day can now be completed in an hour, while long distance travel that used to take weeks can now be completed in a matter of hours. Letters that could have taken months to reach a loved one if they weren't lost on route can be replaced with a clear and practically instantaneous text message.
Perhaps most conveniently, the common individual may instantly research any question they have. With computers and cellphones, a person may access the whole history and collection of human knowledge. All you have to do is ask Siri or Google, and you can receive a traditional YouTube Degree!
However, as stunning as these technological advancements are, there are hazards that come with such incredible capacity. Nobody can have it all, and there must be some trade-offs. Nothing comes for free, as the saying goes, and this is especially true with the increased use of technology in everyone's daily lives.
While having access to a smartphone might be liberating and empowering, it can also be incredibly restricting and destructive. To be honest, a phone may be addictive. These are more than just fears and resentments toward the new period; these arguments are supported by scientists and mental health professionals.
Nobody could have foreseen that this would be a problem. Almost usually, technological advancements are designed to provide a remedy to a societal problem.
It seems unlikely that at the outset of the mobile phone creation process, inventors meant for such detrimental side effects as depression, addiction, poor hygiene, and other disorders described below to spread throughout a whole generation.
Regardless of the original intentions of the mobile phone's creators, the influence these devices have on people is undeniable.
Again, though older generations may be doubtful that such a seemingly insignificant act may cause fear, this is a true phenomenon. Any parent raising children in the modern era who has ever taken away their child's tablet or cell phone as a punishment may be familiar with this emotion.
And what is it that constantly happens? Because they can't stand not having access to their mobile device, the child will have the fit of all fits, possibly progressing into a panic attack.
Many
