Abstract

In the contemporary digital age, smartphones have become an essential part of everyday life, providing numerous benefits, from communication and entertainment to education and work. However, as the reliance on smartphones has increased, so too have concerns about the negative consequences associated with their excessive use. One of the most pressing issues is the impact that smartphone addiction has on mental health. While smartphones can offer many conveniences, they also contribute to a range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep disturbances. This introduction will explore the phenomenon of smartphone addiction, its symptoms, and the mental health challenges that arise from overuse of these devices.
