RedRock Report: Hidden Addictions with Dr. Kanojia of HealthyGamer

ST. GEORGE — Joshua discusses some of the lesser known “hidden” addictions that are potentially problematic in our day to day lives, teaming up with Dr. Alok Kanojia of Healthy Gamer.

Dr. Kanojia overcame video game addiction in his youth to now serve as a licensed psychiatrist, running a YouTube channel by the name of HealthyGamerGG, focusing on technology addiction, navigating mental health in the digital age, and offering courses for those looking to get their attention span back.

Today, we sat down to discuss correlations between technology addiction and gambling, how to approach the idea of “professional” gaming with your kids, and how algorithm driven platforms are designed to randomly dole out positive and negative emotions.
