"The internet can now be reached by a fingertip on a smart phone and has changed our
lives on a fundamental level. However, is mental health enhanced or diminished by
this digitisation of our world? Innovation, such as digital technology, is often greeted
with fear and suspicion but there is currently little evidence to support this. This
book examines the intersection of mental health and digital technology in order to
make informed decisions about the new options provided by the internet and technology.
It highlights the rise in online therapy, self-help sites and social media as well
as examining the ethical dilemmas involved in online research to suggest that the
benefits created far outweigh the possible risks"
