from No-Nonsense Psychiatry Practical Mental Health Lets Talk Together · host markjohnskay

Your apps are designed by neuroscientists to exploit your brain's "Reward Circuitry." In this episode of No Nonsense Psychiatry, we look at how constant digital stimulation leads to Dopamine Downregulation—making real-life rewards feel dull. We strip away the "anti-tech" bias to focus on the clinical necessity of "Digital Fasting." We provide three actionable steps to reset your baseline and stop the cycle of constant distraction and mental fatigue.
