Dopamine and Your Phone: Breaking the Addiction Cycle

The reason why we go over our phones so fast, without thinking twice like we re a robot, is because of the release of dopamine.
Ever wondered why you can't resist checking your phone every time it buzzes? In this episode of 'SocialMediaBreakup', Johan dives into the brain's chemistry to explain why notifications are so addictive. It's all about dopamine, the neurotransmitter that makes us feel excited when we expect a reward. Johan breaks down how this 'feel-good' chemical keeps us hooked on our devices, turning us into phone-checking machines.
He also shares practical tips on how to break this cycle and regain control over our screen time. From disabling push notifications to setting up counter triggers, Johan offers actionable advice for anyone looking to beat phone addiction. If you're tired of being a slave to your smartphone, this episode is a must-listen.
