Curious about Outrage Addiction?
Outrage addiction is a behavioral pattern where individuals repeatedly seek out and engage in anger-inducing content or situations, often through social media, news, or personal interactions. This behavior can create a cycle of anger and indignation that becomes addictive due to the brain's dopamine response to these emotional stimuli. Over time, this addiction can lead to increased stress, anxiety, and a sense of isolation, negatively impacting personal well-being and community dynamics.
