Technology can aid mental health by providing access to resources and support. Mental health apps offer meditation, mood tracking, and therapy sessions. Teletherapy platforms connect individuals with licensed professionals remotely. Wearable devices monitor physical indicators of stress and suggest relaxation techniques. Online communities offer peer support and validation. Virtual reality can provide immersive relaxation experiences. However, technology should supplement, not replace, professional treatment, and individuals should prioritize privacy and security when using mental health tech.

2 Connect with others online

Technology can also help you connect with others who understand what you’re going through, or who can offer you some guidance or comfort. You can join online communities, forums, or groups that focus on mental health topics, or that share your interests or hobbies. You can also use video calls, chats, or social media to stay in touch with your friends, family, or therapist. Just remember to set healthy boundaries and avoid toxic or negative interactions.

3 Learn new skills or hobbies

Another way to use technology to cope with mental health is to learn new skills or hobbies that can boost your confidence, creativity, or happiness. You can find online courses, tutorials, podcasts, or books that teach you something new, such as a language, an instrument, a craft, or a sport. You can also use technology to explore your passions, such as music, art, gaming, or writing. Learning new skills or hobbies can help you distract yourself from your worries, challenge yourself, and have fun.

4 Try digital therapy or coaching

If you need professional help for your mental health, but you can’t access it in person, you can try digital therapy or coaching. These are online services that provide you with counseling, support, or advice from licensed therapists or coaches. You can communicate with them via text, phone, or video, depending on your preference and availability. Digital therapy or coaching can help you address your issues, set goals, and develop coping strategies.

5 Use gadgets for relaxation

You can also use gadgets to help you relax and improve your mental health. For example, you can use headphones, speakers, or earbuds to listen to soothing sounds, music, or podcasts. You can use lamps, candles, or diffusers to create a calming atmosphere with light or aroma. You can use smartwatches, trackers, or sensors to monitor your heart rate, blood pressure, or sleep quality. You can use massage devices, pillows, or blankets to ease your tension and pain.

I prefer staying away from smartphones, and only using gadgets that have low interaction with other topics aside from relaxation. Massage devices are the best, even old-school gadgets for music.

6 Be mindful of your screen time

While technology can help you cope with mental health, it can also have some drawbacks. Too much screen time can affect your sleep, attention, mood, or productivity. It can also expose you to harmful information, such as fake news, cyberbullying, or comparison. Therefore, you need to be mindful of how much and how you use technology. You can set limits, take breaks, turn off notifications, or use filters to protect yourself from the negative effects of technology.

In today's digital age, technology is a double-edged sword. While it offers incredible tools for connectivity and access to mental health resources, excessive or unregulated screen time can exacerbate mental health issues. To harness technology beneficially while coping with mental health struggles, it's crucial to be mindful of your screen time.

Use features like app limits or downtime settings to restrict the amount of time you spend on certain apps or your device overall. Establishing specific times for technology use can prevent overconsumption and promote healthier habits.
