Symptoms include compulsive scrolling—even during the night—resulting in disrupted sleep and exhaustion. Children may experience panic attacks, anxiety, or aggression when denied access to their devices. Other signs include withdrawal from social interactions, loss of interest in offline activities, and difficulty concentrating without screen stimulation. Many report phantom notifications and exhibit signs of depression or low self-esteem linked to social media use. This disorder reflects how digital overexposure rewires young brains, making it difficult for them to function without constant digital input. Early intervention is crucial to rebuild healthy habits and emotional regulation.@_tradwill insta @followers credited #DigitalDependencyDisorder#ChildMentalHealth#ScreenAddiction#DeviceAddiction#TechOverload#KidsAndScreens#DigitalDetox#MentalHealthAwareness#ParentingInTheDigitalAge#iPadAddiction#iPhoneAddiction#DigitalWellness#SocialMediaAnxiety#SleepDisruption#PhantomNotifications#YouthMentalHealth#LimitScreenTime#TechAddiction#HealthyScreenHabits#EmotionalRegulation | William Gibson | Facebook
