In September 2023, Dubai Healthcare City (DHCC) launched the 'Rehab and Wellness Season: Reshape Your Life' initiative to raise awareness about the prevalence of substance abuse and digital addiction. As part of this initiative, DHCC organized an awareness seminar in collaboration with Dubai Police and the American Wellness Center to discuss digital addiction. The seminar, held at Society in October 2023, featured leading experts who provided comprehensive insights into digital addiction, including its identification, the connection between digital addiction and e-crimes, and effective recovery methods.
Dr. Muhammad S. Tahir, Consultant Psychiatrist & Neurologist for Child, Adolescent, and Adult, and Medical Director of the American Wellness Center, was a key speaker at the seminar. He offered an in-depth explanation of digital addiction and shared valuable insights on recognizing gaming addiction, understanding the link between digital addiction and e-crimes, and exploring recovery strategies.
