I think disconnecting will be a considerable part of the future when AR and VR or whatever will be around is a huge thing. It is already a thing now. Some people assume you write them back in Whatsapp in minutes.

With health, I think the gut will play a significant role and also psychology. So many symptoms people develop have their roots in psychological problems.

The addiction to news/social media is similar problem, like smoking, but destroying brain instead of lungs.

Good point with mental health, maybe we should make psychological checkups common thing, like health or dental checkups, every year or so and not when we're sick.

Apps that are designed to be addicting. We'll look back on that as evil insanity.
