The digitalization of contemporary life exerts a profound influence on mental health, creating both new challenges and opportunities for psychiatric practice. This article examines the phenomenon of digital psychopathology as a component of individual digital well-being. Particular attention is devoted to the methodology of Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA), which enables the real-time recording of psychological states and behaviors. The advantages of EMA for the diagnosis and monitoring of mental disorders are outlined, as are its methodological and practical limitations.
