Answer 2

Jean Twenge, psychology professor at San Diego State University and a graduate of the University of Chicago in the US, has written a lot on young people and mental health. She recently released a study that shows a link between the rise of the smartphone and growing rates of depression, suicide attempts, and suicide itself among teens.

The finding is based on data compiled by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention in the US and teen-related surveys. It revealed that feelings of hopelessness and suicidal thoughts had gone up by 12 per cent between 2010 and 2015. Nearly half of the teens who said they spend five or more hours a day on a smartphone, laptop, or tablet said they had thought about, planned, or attempted suicide at least once – compared to 28 per cent of those who said they spend less than an hour a day on a device.

School counsellors and social workers, as well as clinical mental health experts at hospitals, confirm they are seeing a rise in signs of depression and/or anxiety among teens. But, they also say, there are things teens, their parents, and professionals can do to help lower the risks.

Are smartphones causing more teenage girls to inflict self-harm? Experts say yes
Too much, too often
These days, teens can never just step away from their social lives, said Brian Nolan, guidance director at a secondary school in the US state of Illinois. When your parents were at school they could hang out with their friends during the day, and they would relax with their family at night. There was some kind of balance. But the smartphone doesn’t give you that break. The constant fear of missing out, or the urge to feel included, keep teens connected.

8“A recent study shows we touch them about 2,500 times a day on average,” he said. “I use food as a metaphor. If a student is overeating or eating a bunch of junk food, their parents would have a conversation with them about better eating habits, the importance of exercise, moderation, things like that.

“Mobile phones are exactly the same. To tell a student you can’t use it, is the same as saying you can’t eat. That may sound extreme but that’s the reality. [Technology] is how they keep relationships. So, it’s probably better to discuss healthy ways to use it.”

How it harms you
When students only interact via technology, Nolan says, they’re much more likely to withdraw from healthier interactions, and are more likely to be hypersensitive to what’s being posted. “If they aren’t included, they can feel lonely. If they are included, they can feel pressure to keep up.” Parents, he said, are not much help because they themselves are showing children that the phone is more important, when they stop conversations to deal with a text or a WhatsApp message.

Don’t let anxiety rule your life – you can take back control and live life to the fullest
Equal access to good and bad
“Many of my students may not have enough clothing, food or even running water in their homes; but they have phones,” said social worker Allison Bean.

Teens, she said, are physically isolating themselves more and more from their real support systems during a time of their lives that can be very stressful.

Making things worse, Bean said, is that the very device that can cause depression is also giving young people access to websites that can encourage them to take part in self-harming behaviour.

To make things worse, she said, mental health experts are warning about the dangers of technology at a time when more schools are going paperless and giving out tablets to students.

“They are depriving themselves of the opportunity to exercise their social skills; skills that are critical for life. It stops students from leaving their rooms to interact with [people of the same age] in a developmentally appropriate way.”

It’s time to address a problem affecting too many young people around the world
Signs of trouble?
It’s not just technology that is causing the trouble, said Rian Rowles, chairman of psychiatric services at Advocate Christ Medical Centre in the state of Illinois.

“It’s very clear to me that social media has made stressful things worse. Not just depression, but anxiety as well,” he said.

Bullying used to be something that mainly happened at school, but social media, he said, can make it a 24/7 thing.

“When you’re writing and posting things, there’s a phenomenon in which you don’t have the same filter you might when talking on the phone or in person. I think that lends itself to more abrasive statements,” he said. “So not only is it constantly there for these kids, it’s more intense.”
