While the term "digital addiction" is sometimes debated, problematic technology use is real and can manifest as a dependence on devices, difficulty controlling usage, and using technology to escape negative emotions, similar to other behavioral addictions.

What is "digital addiction" or "technology overuse"?
Behavioral Addiction: Digital addiction is considered a type of behavioral addiction, like gambling or sex addiction, characterized by an inability to control or limit the behavior.

Neurological Impact: Children's developing brains are particularly vulnerable to changes in structure and connectivity due to high screen time, which can impair neural development.
