This Morning: Wait… THIS Is Replacing Sex???

Today’s episode was a little chaotic in the best way because my ADHD/neurodivergent brain definitely caught up with me a few times throughout the conversation……but we made it.The theme of today’s episode somehow became sex, dopamine, connection, and what people are actually craving right now.We talked about an article I found about how doom scrolling is slowly replacing sex for a lot of people — not literally, but in the sense that people are turning toward stimulation, distraction, comfort, and endless scrolling instead of intimacy, vulnerability, or real connection.Which led us into a conversation about “the great unwanting” — that strange feeling where people seem less interested in dating, going out, trying, risking rejection, or deeply engaging with life the way they used to.Light morning conversation stuff, obviously.In this episode:my neurodivergent brain trying its best todaythe article about doom scrolling replacing sex“the great unwanting”dopamine, distraction, and modern lonelinessand whether people are becoming too overstimulated to deeply want things anymoreThis Morning, with Tiff Potter is short daily companion audio — rooted in Cincinnati, made for wherever you are.If you want company, press play.https://www.vice.com/en/article/why-gen-z-have-terrible-sex-lives/?fbclid=IwY2xjawSLr2FleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFKZjMzZXJmZG8waEpmRERzc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHp6UumFs4Pt_6xmprx6Yfaz-4xY4ykmN1bmhaSnZzjtIF54KDb7jXKT6ucZi_aem_kmaNZm_bAEnrQaKnc7jK7g
