Why do we come home stressed about the state of the world, then unwind by watching a documentary about a serial killer?
I'm not a psychologist. I'm just someone who couldn't stop asking that question.
Addicted to Chaos is a short, honest, no-lecture look at why our brains are wired to flinch at bad news, binge true crime, gossip about strangers, and doomscroll until midnight, even when none of it is good for us.
Across eight quick chapters, you'll discover:
Grounded in real research. Written like a conversation with a curious friend, not a textbook.
If you've ever caught yourself scrolling at 11pm, wondering why you can't stop, this book is for you.
