Summary
This article analyzes the benefits and risks that technology can have for mental health. Technology can be used to improve our mental health, but its inappropriate use carries risks to both mental health and data privacy. It concludes that promoting mental health for all citizens requires maintaining a balance between technological innovation and person-centered mental health as well as increasing the number of psychiatrists and psychologists in the public health system.
