Sure, communication by itself is not unhealthy. The question is should it be done right after waking up. The brain has no time to gather thoughts, plan the day, etc. It's anything but a graceful boot up. By reaching for the phone first thing in the morning you're telling your brain "you're nothing but a social media content processor." Not only that, but with news being mostly negative (a major reason of why people reach for their phones first thing in the morning), it's not a good recipe for mental health.
