             Social media digital devices and mental health.

 In this fast-paced world where the use of social media is on the rise, there is a debate in the West over whether to use social media and all digital gadgets. Observations have shown that young people use these devices a lot, especially Facebook and YouTube.

In 2012, when the use of social media was on the rise, it was found that stress was on the rise among young people. It was also found that those who used social media more mentally than those who used less. There is more stress and more anxiety. But digital device users can help collect mental health data, so that appropriate interventions can be made when needed. Stress in the United States and the United Kingdom between 2012 and 2013. There has been a sharp rise in the number of adults suffering from anxiety and self-harm, with a sharp increase in the number of teenagers engaged between 2009 and 2011. At that time, two 15- to 17-year-olds One-third of teens were using it on a daily basis. Some researchers who defend the use of social media say that it is an indirect evidence of mental health disorders, and that social media is a by-product. Not a special character.


Some studies have shown that there is a slight link between spending time in front of a screen and poor mental health. Mr. Jonah Thanhead has three arguments against this defense. The paper cited in one argument is brief and The focus is on spending time on screen, but not on watching movies or chatting with friends, which is detrimental to mental health. The research paper focuses on social media instead of focusing on it. If you look at the screen time, you will find that it has a lot to do with stress and when we focus on girls in particular, we find that it affects girls a lot. Researchers say that compared to boys. I think girls use social media more, because boys are more involved in other sports. For girls, the social life, status and closeness around them is very important. They are afraid of being undervalued.


However, it is also true that interactive evidence is provided through interactive surveys. In recent years, published studies have also identified these reasons. Some of these surveys say that they continue to use social media when Some are told to reduce their use. After a few weeks, those who reduced their use reported an improvement in their mood and a decrease in feelings of loneliness, which are symptoms of depression.


Third, some researchers consider social media to be a form of sugar, saying that its use in moderation is safe for young people, while over-consumption would be harmful. But social media is a form of sugar. Not only is it harmful to those who use it, but social media has given a new dimension to many people's relationships, including family relationships and day-to-day relationships. One observation is that Medicine cannot cover the effects of a simple diet, ie social media, while so far in all the discussions of researchers, the amount of food has been kept in mind.


But more importantly, the effects of the network hidden under this pattern are far-reaching, with the effects of stress, anxiety, and mental health disorders affecting more and more girls. As a result, it can be said that Of course, digital media has many benefits, including the treatment of mental illness, but if you limit yourself to social media, you will see a higher rate of harm, which has a greater negative impact on younger users. Says middle-school children between the ages of 11 and 13 should be banned from using smartphones, then the difference in mental health and attitudes between children who don't use phones and those who use smartphones in those two years. The effect of social media on children can be finalized by comparison.


Without observation, it is said that there is a correlation between the use of social media and mental health disorders. Researchers say that the purpose of the research should be to determine the use of digital devices and social media. Can be beneficial rather than harmful. And how to use social media to test its methods and evidence. To be used for education and regulation?


Due to old unresolved issues, our efforts to provide and improve the quality of mental health services are not working. Digital technology has the capacity to meet these challenges. For example, consider the challenges of how human behavior, mental health assessment, patient care, condition improvement and research are all important. Patients rely on self-reporting. As a result, it is very difficult to collect such data, which rarely results in surveys whose symptoms indicate disease prognosis, diagnosis and treatment planning. Can't be


Mobile phones and other devices that connect to the Internet, on the other hand, consistently provide useful and valuable data on people's behavior in real life.

Which will give an insight into the mental health of the people, what should be the time and nature of the treatment of the patients, because people keep using the mobile device all the time. Therefore, at the appropriate time, such help can be given which is only suitable for their caste. At the time, mental health services were provided according to a century-old model, in which people had to be on time at a doctor's appointment rather than in a desperate need. In addition to maintaining, treatment can also be provided.


These benefits may be available to young adults who are at risk due to excessive use of digital devices. Adolescents can benefit equally from increased mental health and improved treatment.


Nick Allen has spoken of the increased use of digital devices and the need to focus more on treating the diseases caused by their use. The difference between overuse and overuse is not discussed, as the key question is whether reducing the use of social media can prevent stress and other harmful mental health effects. Because if the disease can be prevented, then our first priority should be to prevent the disease. This is not to say that more attention should be paid to the treatment of diseases caused by overuse. We already need to pay attention to its harmful effects.
