What is nomophobia?
Nomophobia refers to a fear of not having
mobile phone connectivity. It can cause panic or
anxiety for the person experiencing it.
Researchers have noted that it is still unclear if
the disorder comes from an existing condition,
such as anxiety disorder, or from a cell phone
addiction. They proposed changing the name
“nomophobia” to “smartphone addiction

Treatments are currently nonstandard and

and self-care.

relaxation techniques. This therapy involves a
combination of breathing techniques, exercises,
and meditation techniques, which help a person
cope with not having a phone or other phobias.
