With the development of technology, the use of technological products in daily life has become more frequent. Although technological products contribute to our lives, physical symptoms such as burning in the eyes, disturbances in body posture, numbness in the hands, weakness, and headache can be experienced in case of excessive use.

Not only do we experience physical symptoms, but if the time and resources we allocate to technology increase, negative experiences such as decrease in academic performance, problems in the social environment, sleep disorders, decrease in social activities, isolation from friends may be experienced, and a decrease in mental health, social health and quality of life may be observed.

Observing the reasons for the use of technology and the behavioral changes brought about by the use of technology is important for assessing addiction. Symptoms of addiction include the use of technological tools without a time limit, lying to the social environment about the time spent, skipping meals to maintain the use of technology or accompanying behaviors such as increased food consumption, increased social isolation, increased feelings of guilt, deterioration of sleep patterns.

If you think you have these symptoms and technological products have started to affect your life physically, socially and spiritually, it is worth getting professional help.
