These 17 goals, established in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda, aim to tackle the most pressing global challenges from an integrated perspective, bringing together governments, businesses, and citizens in a shared effort.

Digital Disconnection: The Anxiety of Receiving Messages from Your Boss Harms Your Mental Health

Your phone vibrates. It’s a message or an email from your boss. It’s four o’clock on a Sunday afternoon, outside working hours. You’re with your family, having lunch at a restaurant with friends. You tell yourself you won’t reply because it doesn’t seem urgent, but you can’t get it out of your head. Instead of enjoying the moment, you keep thinking about that message, feeling a subtle but constant pressure. This phenomenon is called e-anxiety.

In reality, this state of alert affects your emotional connection with your family. You keep checking your phone, mentally rehearsing possible replies and anticipating what your boss might think if you don’t respond. You know they are always checking emails, even on public holidays, at night, or over the weekend. This adds extra pressure: What will your boss think if you don’t reply?
