The technology effect on our mental, social, physical and environmental health can be overwhelming if we will not update our self on a daily bases. There is nothing wrong to say that we have gained so many things from the development of technology, but always moderation is a key to all the things in life. But the awareness is must to the overuse of electronic devices; we have to be aware of all the positive and negative aspects of the use of IT. Being aware of the harmful aspects of the overuse of electronics will help you avoid any avoidable pitfalls. The overuse of anything is not always good and its effect can be dangerous. We will see here that how the human is affected by the use of IT. The effect can be in both the directions.

The use of any computers, storage, networking and other physical devices, infrastructure is IT (Information technology) and it is a process to create, method, secure, store, and exchange all forms of electronic data. IT encompasses on the commercial use of both computer equipment and telephony. Typically, the use of IT is in the context of endeavor operations as opposed to individual or entertainment technologies. The term information technology was coined by the Harvard Business Review, in order to make a distinction between purpose-built machines designed to perform a limited scope of functions and general-purpose computing machines that could be automatic for various tasks. The field of IT is not new for anyone so many wide varieties of changes we can see in the area of technology.

Isolation

The use of technology makes human isolated like social isolation is characterized by a lack of contact with other people in the regular daily source of revenue, such as friends, the workplace and in many social activities. Now, so many are trying to isolate them by walking around in their own little world of technology, staring at the screen of the latest mobile device, listening to their iPods or even when we are around other people then also no when can avoid the use of internet and mobile phones. Due to the overuse of technology, people isolate themselves and that people who are socially isolated will live shorter lives.

Obesity

Most of the time so many people are spending lots of time in video games, Net surfing, talking to their friends on video chat and watching videos on YouTube, they are spending less time being active or exercising. So this thing increases the risk of obesity. Most of the people are facing the problem of obesity because they don’t have time to do exercise or even they are only inside in one room and full time sitting is dangerous for the health.

Depression

Technology is a creature for the perfect recipe of depression with the lack of human contact, overeating, and lack of exercise. This is a reason the use of antidepressants are on the rise and the fault can’t be completely dumped on the pharmaceutical companies. They aren’t carting people into the doctor’s office and force feeding them the pills. There is nothing wrong to say that depression is a real problem in this era, but some people could cure their depression by living a healthier lifestyle.

Stress

Constantly being “plugged in” and “connected” causes an extra layer of stress that wasn’t present before the overuse of technology.
