How does technology lead to neurosis? 1586019

(I)The goal of all inanimate objects is to resist man and ultimately to defeat him, and the

three major classifications are based on the method each object uses to achieve its purpose

(Baker, 428). However, what happens when that inanimate object is something that humans rely

on continuously? continuously rely on Neurosis is an emotional illness in which symptoms

include anxiety, fear, and depression which is proved to show the correlation between.. that it

correlates with the loneliness and lack of sleep technology has caused with its mental symptoms.

This all usually begins with isolating and indulging ones self in electronic components like

phones instead of being in touch with their community.

The use of devices like phones tend to isolate individuals from society and prevent them

from building real relationships. (Worst Sentence: Repeated introduction to the previous

sentence.)Signs of this includes lack of personal contact or interest in what is occurring around

the individual. Although technology is meant to keep people more connected with their

community studies have proved that, those who report feeling most alone, are young

people under 35 who are the most prolific social networkers of all (Warrell, 2). Whilst people

are surrounded by others, they feel alone because they are incapable of connecting or learning

from their environment. This sense of loneliness later leads to the neurosis. As proof,

loneliness often goes hand in hand with one major health problem depression. In fact, the

American Psychological Association says that loneliness is a specific risk factor for the mental

health condition (Vann, 1).

Explaining
Neurosis can also be linked to the lack of sleep that individuals get due to the distraction

and entertainment that technology offers people when they should be asleep. (Best Sentence:

Ties back to the second part of your thesis)The engagement of technology can lead to many

symptoms, but the lack of usage of technology can also be a curation. It is said, prevention of

mental disorders and sleep disorders requires the restriction of computer use to less than five

hours a day (Koster, 6).

Technology tends to intervene with sleep because, the blue light emitted by screens on

cell phones, computers, tablets, and televisions restrain the production of melatonin, the hormone

that controls your sleep/wake cycle or circadian rhythm. Reducing melatonin makes it harder to

fall and stay asleep (How Technology Impacts Sleep Quality). This later remove leads to the

conclusion that sleep is a very strong component to the mood and optimism that one holds.

Although sleep deprivation does not directly influence neurosis; without accurate sleep, the

symptoms of neurosis will have the opportunity to enhance.

(C)Whether it is sleep or it is how close a person is with their society, technology tends to

have a strong influence on the emotional illness, neurosis. When people are capable of relating

with others from across the world, but not connect with others around them, it does not make up

for the anxiety technology has given them. This is because daily interactions, reliability on

others, and true connections come when people are able to physically and emotionally empathize

with their friends, co-workers, and family. In fact, this isolation leads most people to look for

outside comfort that could be found around them. The lack of real life social interactions and
