Researching for a planned companion to Tomorrow Is Different But It's Still The Same regarding the all too common digital addiction is this mashed coagulation of notes on what I've gathered looking through the information presented by psychiatrist Anne Lambke in her book Dopamine Nation; as well as appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast. In a sense there's a (possibly imposed) sense of irony in posting it online to be consumed via digital delivery, at least initially; but so is scrolling to read the book in free pdf format and listening to information. Call it data, call it content; regardless of respective/preferred verbiage to refer to it, it's still doomscrolling on a certain level all the same.
___________________________________________________________________________
Dopamine deceit, lycanthropic black delusion
All-along compound effect, intangible award,
stressed steward, mismatched potency-
spiralling seratonine, retarded rewarding pathological-workaholic maniacal machinery
Unexpected, collected craved control; moment to moment experiences-
in dualistic delight; grey black and white
Diverging degrees of content, couch eaten,
chemically induced hollow contempt
Mystic discipline in unprecedented abundance:
electronic indulgence, endless eye candy
Primitive prerogative: attached insane imagination

Then because why not the original two bits combined to create this collected coagulation of what I think I've comprehended of the research so far.
