What Can Happen If You Use Your Phone Right Before Bed

You most likely once promised yourself to go to bed early only to end up scrolling through social media, and we feel you. It’s hard to leave your phone in another room and to log off, even a couple of hours. However, using your phone shortly before bed may have a greater negative impact on your health than you know.

If you ever felt like your vision suddenly blurred after you spent hours scrolling through your feed, you’re definitely not alone.
