Technology Saves Seniors from Depression

More than chronic illnesses and body pains, the feeling of loneliness and lack of purpose can bring senior citizens to a major state of depression. Losing a loved one or being uprooted for their homes to move to in with a relative in a foreign place can be quite dispiriting and can bring forth a level of anxiety within them, which is why, it is a relieving notion that the presence of technology is able to lift them back up, allowing them to connect with other loved ones who, before the discovery of the magic of social media, iPads and other modes, seemed so distant and disassociated.
