197: Vegan Outrage Addiction- Are You Furious or Curious?
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.Resources to Learn More About Outrage AddictionBooks and Articles: - "The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure" by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt - So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed, by Jon Ronson - Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion, by Jonathan Haidt -Your Addiction To Outrage is Ruining Your Life, by Pete Williams - *How Outrage Is Hijacking Our Culture and Our Minds,” National Public Radio - “Are We Addicted to Outrage?” Kelly Corrigan on KatieCouric.comWebsite - The Gottman Institute (www.gottman.com) - Focuses on relationship research and offers resources on how contempt and outrage affect personal relationships.Plant Based / Vegan Life Coaching.
