You'll have to link those specific studies in question, because it's possible their methodology is flawed. Rates of anxiety and depression are up across the board and it's not so easy to authoritatively link it to using technology. Increased screen time can be a sign of idleness which isn't necessarily technology's fault. What we call anxiety and depression was for previous generations being "stressed out", and there are a myriad of social/environmental/economic factors driving people to despair these days.
