Editorial Article | Volume: 1, Issue: 1 Published Date: March 20, 2025 Mental Health in the Pre-Digital and Post-Digital Eras: An Epigenetic PerspectiveAuthor(s): Vincenzo Maria Romeo Abstract: The evolution of mental health across historical epochs has been profoundly influenced by sociocultural and technological changes. The advent of the digital era has introduced significant shifts in the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of psychiatric disorders. In the pre-digital era, mental health care was primarily based on in-person clinical assessments, limited diagnostic tools, and restricted access to specialized services. The post-digital era, however, has witnessed the rise of telepsychiatry, digital phenotyping, and artificial intelligence-driven diagnostics, which have transformed psychiatric practices. |
