Communication Technology And Stress

<h1>Communication Technology And Stress - Part 2</h1>Author: <a title="CD Mohatta" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/cd-mohatta/22037.htm">CD Mohatta</a> In the first part of this article we studied about how email changed our lives forever. In a way email made all of us easily accessible but also added lot of stress in our lives. It is said that Begum Noorjahan, queen of Mughal Emperor Jehangir had trained pigeons that carried her messages. She had no stress about how they reached their destination and when. Whereas we get frantic if an expected email does not arrive in time. This age of information technology has made many medical professionals who treat stress related diseases much richer. The next quantum jump was with online chat. You will find many people who are constantly on the look out of friends who are online for chat. Why? So that they can discuss something with them while doing their work at the same time. Most of such chats are of no use except that they are great stress builders and work spoilers. Earlier we used to go out to meet friends. Now a days we join chat rooms and chat with people about whose real identity we have no clue. A man may be acting as a woman and vice versa. Somehow we are forgetting our purpose of life because we are being bombarded with technology. We have forgotten that there is something like joy, fun, reflection, and peace. There is no peace in lives of most of those who are online. The stress effects are very dangerous. It may cause depression, cardiac problems, affect immune system and play havoc with our health. But we are not concerned because most of us are busy with our personal computers. A time may soon come when more and more people will meet their friends only online and may not meet them physically for years. In the next part of this article we will find out about how discussion boards may be causing stress to most of us.About the Author:
