I am not comfortable with computers. Can I use HAPPYneuron without a computer?
We would like our members to keep in mind that using HAPPYneuron via computer is part of the novel experience and learning process that one needs on a daily basis to maintain mental health. It is in itself a cognitive stimulating activity. Studies have showed that the use of computers can enhance self-esteem, meets the need for fun and mental stimulation, and improves competencies and autonomy. It can also decrease levels of depression, loneliness, and stress. As with any new task, learning how to use a computer takes a bit of time and patience. In turn the benefits of learning a new skill can be significant.
