Why smartphones are making you ill By Olivia Goldhill telegraph
Here’s why smartphones are bad for your physical, mental and emotional health.
Anxiety
Instead of making us more connected, the potential for incessant smartphone communication can make us feel more isolated. Young people, who spend 11 hours looking at their screens every day, expect constant updates from their friends, and a lull in messages can lead to anxiety. “
Obesity
Consultant orthopaedic surgeon Jonathan Dearing, spokesman for the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, says that the technology revolution has led to reduced physical activity and obesity, which is the fourth biggest cause of death worldwide. "If someone is on the floor above you at work, rather than going to see them you would send an email. And you would phone up a friend rather than travelling to meet them,” he says. “Inactivity leads to obesity, and it means risk of cardiovascular disease is greatly increased.
Depression
Child psychotherapist Julie Lynn Evans says that she dealt with one or two attempted suicides a year in the 1990s, but now faces up to four a month. Lynn Evans blames smartphones for this increase, saying that it allows teenagers to carry a world of cyber bullying with them wherever they go. “There are difficult chat rooms, self-harming websites, anorexia websites, pornography, and a whole invisible world of dark places.
Sleep
More than 60 per cent of 18- to 29-year-old smartphone users take their phones to bed, but studies have found that just two hours exposure to brightly lit screens can supress melatonin and lead to sleeping troubles. And Professor Kevin Morgan, Director of the Clinical Sleep Research Unit at Loughborough University, says that late-night intellectual stimulation from our phones makes it more difficult to relax. “Why are you looking at a screen before you go to bed? It could be because you are working. Or a child might be playing an exciting game,” he says. “Looking at screens engages you in intellectual activity in a way that is not at all like reading a book. It puts you in a state of alertness which is the last thing you want to be before going to bed."
Relationships
Social skills have also been depleted thanks to the amount of time we focus on our smartphone, instead of those around us. This is particularly obvious among children, who are increasingly ignored by smartphone-obsessed parents. “Children learn by watching us how to have a conversation, how to read other people’s facial expressions,” says Dr Jenny Radesky, a paediatrician specialising in child development, “If that’s not happening, children are missing out on important development milestones.”
