Answer:

yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

i think technology (especially in modern times) can definitely have that effect on people for many reasons.

- technology and social media create non realistic standards for life (beauty, academics, accomplishments, and just life in general)

- the use of technology cna often be addicting --> this can disrupt sleep and can cause sleep deprivation (one of the main causes in depression)

- constant use of technology can cause people to be more dependent on their phones than on real life interactions and relationships with others

--> being too focused on your phone can prevent people from connecting with people in-person and this can become a bad habit of relying on your phone for interactions instead of speaking to people in real life

- social media often causes fomo, insecurity, stress, and increase in anxiety
