Young people with existing mental health issues gravitate more towards the online world as an avoidance strategy. Is it the other way around where technology is instigating, exacerbating or causing some of these mental health issues? We really don't yet know what I think that the research is pointing to at the moment. And we don't have research that proves that one causes the other.
This podcast is required listening for all of us who inhabit the digital world. Dr Kristy has done a heap of research into the effects of the digital world on our wellbeing and performance and has come up with a range of actionable and practical solutions that we can use to keep the benefits of the digital world, without it negatively impacting on our health, wellbeing and performance, as well as that of our kids.
