Countries Are Becoming More and More Similar Because People

Technology has spread in every nook and corner. It has not left any area untouched. The major effect of technology could be noticed on our communication. A few consider it is a boon; whereas others think it has made them reserved. I think ok both views are correct as excessive use of anything has dire consequences. People should use it cautiously.

First and foremost, cutting edge technology has made people extroverted and they can talk with their near and dear ones at any time via electronic gadgets. Now people talk more rather than visiting in person. To exemplify, now people have more hectic schedules and if they want to visit or meet their loved ones, they are unable to go. So, here technology helps them in maintaining their relationships. They can make video calls and send messages. In this way, they remain more social and happy.

On the other hand, it is making people more depressed and alone. People visit less and irregular visits isolate them from their kith and kin. They get engrossed in the technology so much that it does not allow them to go personally to meet their relatives. Due to it, they love living alone, and gathering around them makes them feel suffocated. For example, people use hi-tech technology excessively. They use it for a plethora of purposes like doing shopping, paying electricity bills without meeting each other. Thus they live in their own world. Sometimes this isolation makes them mentally sick and they remain depressed.

In conclusion, though modern technology has bestowed ample benefits; however, it has made people antisocial and due to it people suffer mental illness.
