Every time you scroll, your brain learns one thing: distraction feels safer than stillness.
In this episode, Dr. Trish Leigh explains the real dopamine hijack happening in modern life, the overstimulating, engineered world that keeps your nervous system running on urgency, novelty, and noise.
As part of No Numb November, you will learn why ancient dopamine wiring struggles in a saturation-based world, how the scroll–spike–crash loop reshapes your reward circuits, why peace feels “boring” and stillness feels unsafe, what high-beta chaos looks like on a brain map, and how to move from quick dopamine highs into steady, grounded clarity.
Dr. Leigh also shares her own story of burnout and the moment she realized the issue was not a lack of willpower but a pattern of miswiring shaped by modern overstimulation.
