ABSTRACT

While the term "screen addiction" or "social media addiction" is gaining steam in the popular media, preclinical, clinical, and population health research have not caught up with regards to the diagnosis and treatment of unhealthy screen use. The overarching goal of this article is to provide broad clinical tips to generalists, working outside the mental health specialty, on the evaluation and treatment of unhealthy screen exposure in children and young adults. We will clarify the difference between addiction and overuse, and why this distinction matters. Recognizing that screens are here to stay in the post-COVID era, we will provide guidance on how to reduce potential harms associated with screen exposure without necessarily requiring people to abstain or stop using screens.
