February 26, 2023, 06:58 – BLiTZ – News Expert of the NTI Competence Center “Bionic Engineering in Medicine” Samara State Medical University, neurologist, clinical psychologist Lyubov Blagodareva warned that prolonged use of a smartphone leads to dopamine addiction, and this, in turn, leads to problems with attention, insomnia and high anxiety. About it writes RIA Novosti.
The expert said the following: “Social media addiction is primarily a dopamine addiction. Leafing through the tape, the human brain is looking for something interesting, useful, something that evokes emotion. However, this is a very short-lived pleasure.
Blagodareva noted that after a decrease in dopamine levels, a person begins to experience negative emotions – anxiety, apathy and irritability. The psychologist also recommended that you stop using your phone a couple of hours before falling asleep to avoid problems with sleep.
Previously, psychologists from Concordia University in Canada named a sign by which it is possible to determine relationship satisfaction with a high degree of probability.
Canadian scientists reported that the use of the pronouns “we” and “us” when describing events experienced together in a couple is a sign of satisfaction with the relationship of partners. Read more about this in the BLiTZ article.
