Technology can be both a stressor and a stress reliever for me, which sometimes makes things difficult. When I am trying to relax or taking some time for myself then it can be helpful. Watching a show or playing a game when I’m trying to relax can be helpful and a de-stressor to have a small escape during the day. Technology can also be a bad thing sometimes, like when I’m trying to focus on something and it can be a distraction and cause me stress since I wasn’t using my time wisely so then I have to work for a long time. Technology I think has lowered my stress levels this year because I’m familiar with technology so that made online school better for me, and it helped me not be so worried that I was going to have gaps in my education. Technology can be both a good thing and a bad thing in my life, but the good is greater than the bad so I think that overall, technology has helped me learn and grow this past year.
