Social Interactions: An over-reliance on electronic communication can negatively affect one's ability to interact socially in person, making it difficult to engage with others.
Mental Health: Anxiety and depression are two conditions that can be exacerbated by technology addiction, which includes compulsive use of social media, video games, and other online activities.
