If you’ve found yourself forgetting words mid-sentence, losing track of thoughts in conversations, opening your phone only to forget why—you’re not alone. You’re not broken, you’re living inside an attention architecture designed to fragment your thinking, hijack your reward systems, and turn real intimacy into something that feels foreign. This isn’t just psychological, it’s neurological and the research I’m sharing in this blog, is based on the work of neuroscientists Kep-Kee Loh and Ryota Kanai. Their study shows in concrete terms how digital life is changing the very structure and function of the human brain.
