Digital Cocaine: Breaking Free from the Device That Owns You! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798266461840)

Here's what nobody tells you about smartphone addiction: You're not scrolling mindlessly-you're getting high. Every notification triggers the same brain chemicals as cocaine. Every like floods your system with dopamine. Every buzz creates a craving more powerful than hunger. The device in your pocket isn't a communication tool-it's a dealer, and you're the product being sold to the highest bidder.

I spent three years as my phone's favorite customer, checking it 200+ times a day while my real life crumbled around me. My wife felt like a widow. My daughter learned that Daddy's screen was more important than her stories. I was physically present but mentally absent, living in a digital world while my actual world begged for my attention.

The wake-up call came when my little girl stopped asking me to read to her. A 4-year-old had given up competing with my addiction. That's the day I declared war on the algorithms that had hijacked my brain-and won.
