How Scrolling Through Apps For Hours Affects Your Brain

Did you ever think what happens to your brain when you use your mobile phone for a long time and keep scrolling? Definitely, NO. When you keep scrolling through the apps on your mobile phone, your mind gets stuck in that zone, and you feel paralyzed, and your motivational system gets affected. The mindless scrolling results in the information overload on the brain, and a hormone gets secreted from your brain. As an adult, it is dangerous for you. Imagine how much effect it has on your child's brain. According to the Picture Superiority Effect, the human brain reacts to an image 60,000 times faster than the text. A recent document published by the World Psychiatric Association found that the impact of social media on our brains most closely resembles "age-related cognitive decline". When you scroll through social media sites like Facebook & Instagram, a hormone named "Dopamine" gets secreted from your brain. This hormone is called "The Happiness Chemical". Dopamine is like an addictive drug that we get addicted to and crave for pleasure when we don't get it. It happens when someone likes our pictures, follows us, or when we see attractive images. When the hormone gets secreted from the brain, we feel pleasure. A recent study by the World Psychiatric Association found that the impact of social media on our brains most closely resembles "age-related cognitive decline." (Think problems with memory, language, judgement, and thinking in teenagers.) These results have been causing neurological damage over time and are worrying since the pandemic lockdown. Due to the Covid, our screen time has increased, and the children had to shift to mobile devices and computers for their studies. This resulted in an average screen time of 6 to 9 hours for the children aged between 6-and 15 years. While our children operate apps like Instagram in their free time, their mental health worsens with each minute. Since children's attention span is deficient, they most prefer images and videos while browsing through social media. Here is a fun fact - Almost 80% of the output on Instagram is "self-reference". That's more than twice the rate found in real-life conversations. In other words, people are just talking about themselves. With a mission to decrease the habit of mindless scrolling in children, we're here with a mobile app for your children that gives them a beautiful experience and provides them with more-needed knowledge than they ever wanted to know.
