A tipping point is approaching where the majority of humanity will use digital devices for communication, work and shopping. What if this same majority were equally good at using their digital devices to increase their mental and behavioral wellness.
A barrier to this “what if” is digital mental health literacy, or skillfulness in applying everyday digital technologies to one’s mental and behavioral health.
