UNAIR NEWS — Early signs of phone addiction include frequently checking the phone for no reason, neglecting responsibilities, spending time unproductively, and experiencing sleep deprivation. If not addressed promptly, this condition can affect a person’s emotional well-being.

The impacts of phone addiction encompass stress, depression, reduced concentration, and sleep difficulties. These sleep disturbances are caused by the blue light emitted from phone screens, which affects the body’s production of melatonin.

Solutions to combat phone addiction include digital detoxification by raising awareness and setting limits on phone usage.
