A lot of screentime can make us feel angry, tired, and frustrated, and make it harder to control our impulses. But we can change that In When Brains Meet Screens, Bethany Barton breaks down how dopamine affects our relationship with screens, what too much screen time does to our brains, and how to know when we've had enough.
