And they\u2019ve quickly become part of our everyday vocabularies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The concern over doomscrolling isn\u2019t for nothing: concerns persist about smartphone and social media use and mental health, particularly among teens. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/internet\/2024\/03\/11\/how-teens-and-parents-approach-screen-time\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to the Pew Research Center<\/a>, roughly half of teens say social media sites have a mostly negative effect on people their age, and parents are often even more worried. Plus, while social media can be a great connector, it can also contribute to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mentalhealthfirstaid.org\/2020\/02\/study-shows-social-media-may-play-a-role-in-eating-disorders-among-teens\/\">mental health challenges.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing that, why do so many of us remain glued to our phones? Regardless of age, smartphone usage is simply a daily fact of life for most people in the U.S. We use them to shop, communicate and navigate. And sometimes, our phone usage can spiral out of control, becoming excessive and potentially harming our mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many have been quick to refer to excessive smartphone use as \u201cphone addiction,\u201d but that\u2019s not currently a widely accepted mental health diagnosis. Still, many people find it hard to regulate their phone usage, which can lead to or contribute to mental health challenges like anxiety and depression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One reason our cellphones can be so compelling is because smartphone usage \u2014 especially social media \u2014 activates our dopamine pathways. The neurotransmitter dopamine reinforces the anticipation of rewards. Our phones are full of rewards! Social media is designed to keep you scrolling in anticipation of the \u2018hit\u2019 that makes you feel good, and dopamine makes that scrolling feel good too. While you can\u2019t quite be addicted to dopamine, it does act as a motivator for many habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what should you do? Throwing away your smartphone probably isn\u2019t the best option, so here are <strong>six things you can do to cultivate a healthy relationship with your phone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Explore your experience.<\/strong> Many phones can give you information about your screen time and usage: How much time are you actually spending on your phone? Which apps take up the most time? The answers might be surprising and will give you baseline knowledge of your habits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Assess your needs. <\/strong>Check in with yourself: how are you feeling? Do you experience more stress or anxiety while using your phone? Are there things you\u2019d rather use your time for? What do you have to use your phone for?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make a phone schedule.<\/strong> Most of us need our smartphones too often for us to stop using them entirely. But placing boundaries over <em>when <\/em>you use your phone can help. We often wake up and grab our phones immediately in the morning, kickstarting that cycle of scrolling and anxiety. Try not using your phone for the first 30 minutes of your day. Giving yourself time away can be a great way to start the morning. Try the same thing at night! We sleep better when we reduce our screen and blue light exposure, so try not using your phone for an hour before you go to bed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Set app limits.<\/strong> Smartphones usually have features that let you set screen time limits on certain apps, turning them off automatically. You might set a 30-minute limit on your favorite social media during the week and a bit longer on weekends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Manage your notifications.<\/strong> If you phone is constantly buzzing and dinging, it\u2019s hard to ignore. Try turning some notifications off, making them silent or delivering all your notifications in a bundle at a few chosen times per day. Different phones have different options, so explore yours and experiment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Clean up your phone\u2019s home screen. <\/strong>Clear away distracting apps so you can keep your focus on those that matter and be less tempted when you open your phone.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>These steps can be a starting place for managing your phone use for a healthier lifestyle.
