How Internet Affects Mental Health – It Was Selected For You On The Basis Of Your Browsing Activity

Therefore this ad had been matched to your interests. It was selected for you depending on your browsing activity. It has greatly modified public communication, information acquisition and amusement. Nonetheless, it has breached the barriers of commerce and built bridges for global collective research and education. By the way, the lives of millions of people across the world have never been really similar since the advent of the internet. All you have to do is open your laptop, type in what you are looking for and after all indulge in the overflow of information. Certainly, you don’t necessarily need to spend hours in the library to gather information for research work as everything is already simplified for you through the internet. Most people will just tell you to Google It when you ask them about something.

The foregoing mentioned are only a few the wonderful privileges offered to us by the internet. These privileges also have its positive and negative effects on people. Sure, being afflicted with diseases is one cause why people use the internet to look for health information. Little did they know that what they are doing may bring harm to their mental stability, these people may have all the good intentions. Knowing too much about health conditions may cause rumination thereby triggering anxiety or hypochondriasis which is the ‘over preoccupation’ of having severe illness. Now let me tell you something. Obtaining too much information about diseases may bring about pointless concerns for their own health or for their family. Also, on the brighter side of things, easy communication brought about by the internet augments social ties and creates new ones.

Distance does not anymore prove to be a barrier for loved ones to bond. People who have reduced social communication since their distance are observed to have poor psychological functioning and high stress levels. Just remember that the real world is outside and that too much of anything is generally not good, in order to help you with. How it affects you will still rely on the way you use it. Consequently, these things do not necessarily happen to everyone using the internet as they are all but possibilities.
