This is an epidemic no one is talking about: adult phone addiction. Millions of people are struggling worldwide—and most don’t realize how much it’s impacting their focus, mood, relationships, and ability to be present. In this episode, I break down 8 manifestations of compulsive phone behavior, how to tell when you’re in it, and why “just stop” doesn’t work when your phone has become your nervous system’s fastest relief. - Device checking compulsion
- Social media compulsion (passive scrolling + active participation)
- Mobile gaming
- Information/content compulsion (news, rabbit holes, constant consuming)
- Online shopping
- Dating apps
- Work/productivity compulsion
- Fitness/biometric tracking compulsion
