‘ I’ve been thinking allot about the new IPhone, our incessant search for immediate gratification at lightening speed and, their impact on chronic pain, especially being unable to keep up with multi task input and demands. (Will more and more people question whether they have Attention Deficit Disorder? )
Neurologically, it has been shown that there is a relationship between immediate gratification and an obstruction in the interaction between the brain’s hippocampus and nucleus accumbuns. As well, there is a major change on the neurotransmitter, dopamine levels, increasing addictions.
We have become a ‘ dopamine seeking’ driven society!
We are at a crisis point to reduce ‘pain!
