〔記者蔡淑媛/台中報導〕台中榮總研究發現青少年熬夜上網,不但睡眠品質變差,也常合併出現憂鬱、覺得不幸福,中榮精神科醫師劉珈倩提醒,民眾發現孩子長時間上網,別急著斷定是網路成癮而一味禁止,應注意使用網路的習慣、時段,及睡眠障礙、憂鬱問題,才能改善。
中榮精神部兒童青少年精神醫療團隊分利用「台灣數位世代青少年的成長歷程追蹤研究(TIGPS)」問卷資料,分析2022、2023年超過4000名七年級升至八年級的國中生,發現有熬夜上網的習慣者,1年後常合併出現睡眠品質較差、憂鬱症狀較高、幸福感較低的情形。
劉珈倩指出,之前1名國中生天天半夜玩手遊,導致隔天起不來,上課精神不濟,父母制止不聽,親子衝突不斷,認為孩子已經網路成癮,帶來就醫,後來診斷沒有網路成癮,而是父母全面禁止玩手機,孩子決定犧牲睡眠熬夜玩手遊。
後來國中生與父母協定,在完成功課、家事後有1小時的空檔玩手遊,並轉介國中生進行3C效能職能治療,父母也接受親子教育,化解親子3C衝突,其間也因玩遊戲場次可能超時,調整平日與假日上網時間,親子持續溝通。
劉珈倩強調,網路成癮要件包括上網停不下來,影響正常生活功能,包括拒學、不寫功課、翹課等;青少年熬夜上網、玩3C遊戲、玩社群,原因多,可能長期心情不佳、有憂鬱傾向、尋求情緒出口,也可能平日被限制玩遊戲,只好晚上躲被窩偷偷玩,結果反而太興奮而失眠,不能片段認為就是網路成癮,應該探究背後原因。
劉珈倩說,青少年有情緒障礙,有7、8成與網路使用有關,建議父母詢問孩子不要一味責備,試著詢問「玩遊戲順利嗎」、「這場隊友厲害嗎」、「最近發生什麼事感到挫折」等,與孩子拉近距離,感受父母要了解過的好不好,提醒如果孩子近期常出現易怒、反抗、疏離等狀況,則要考慮進一步就醫。
職能治療師宋依霖也說,找出孩子行為背後的原因、陪他一起找到可行的平衡點,才是化解親子3C衝突的關鍵。

An 80-year-old grandma was diagnosed with Helicobacter pylori due to gastric ulcer but did not follow up. One and a half years later, she was hospitalized with a large amount of black stool and was diagnosed with mid-stage gastric cancer.

Two deaths from pneumonia of unknown cause occurred at the Plague Prevention and Control Institute in Irkutsk Oblast, Russia. The WHO asked Russia to clarify the cause and explain the second epidemic reported by the media.

Taiwan has strengthened border fever screening and emphasized that it has the inspection capacity and medical network. The public should not panic excessively.
