Abstract :
We have entered the era of the mobile phone.
Without knowing the hazards, which may include cancer
and other health concerns, using these drugs is not
"quite" safe. While research on the cancers caused by
mobile phone radiation is accessible, further research on
the detrimental psychological and physiological effects is
required, particularly for heavy users like college
students. The purpose of this study was to investigate the
relationship between the amount of time students spend
on their mobile phones and their psychological well-being
in urban educational institutions offering professional
courses. Materials and procedures: We randomly chose
high school and college students from urban and rural
areas and gave them a survey to gauge their thoughts and
feelings on the effects of mobile phone use on their well-
being. Findings: Headaches were reported by 51.47
percent of patients, followed by irritation and anger at
50.79 and 50.79 percent, respectively. Apathy, poor
academic performance, insomnia, and anxiety are among
the frequent cognitive disorders. It is crucial to educate
young people about the possible mental health hazards of
excessive mobile phone usage and advise them to take
precautions since they are the most likely to use cell
phones often. The reason for this is because the
demographic that uses mobile phones the most is the
younger generation. Some suggestions include spending
less time chatting and more time communicating, as well
as reducing dependence on technology.
