Psychologist Alexandra Yakovleva says being constantly available in work chats leads to emotional burnout.
She explains that the blurring of boundaries between personal life and work in messengers seriously impacts mental health.
Digital platforms create "dopamine traps": each notification gives a short burst of pleasure, pushing you to check your phone again.
The brain stays in a state of constant anticipation, disrupting sleep and increasing stress.
To reduce tech-related stress, Yakovleva recommends setting strict time limits for checking work groups, taking regular digital detoxes, exercising more, and prioritizing face-to-face communication.
