Signs of Digital Addiction

A constant feeling of needing to check our phone.

Sleep disturbances due to late-night surfing.

Decreased concentration and productivity.

Anxiety or irritation when without access to gadgets.

Loss of interest in real life, social interactions, and hobbies.

If you recognize yourself in at least two of these points, it's worth paying attention.

Digital addiction affects:

Mental health: anxiety, stress, depression.

Physical health: vision problems, posture problems, chronic fatigue.

Social life: real-life relationships suffer, and feelings of loneliness increase.

Set aside time without gadgets—a "digital detox" of at least an hour a day.

Limit notifications—only important calls and messages.

Set offline goals—meeting friends, exercising, hobbies, reading books.

Manage your online time—apps that track screen time will help you see the real picture.

Learn to be in the moment—mindfulness, meditation, and walks in the fresh air help you reconnect.

Digital addiction is not a death sentence, but a signal. By controlling our gadgets, we reclaim our time, energy, and genuine emotions. After all, technology should serve us, not control our lives.
