Relationships suffer when we are constantly distracted. The external stimuli can often overwhelm the brain and produce an excessive amount of Dopamine. This can make us stay busy with things that are not necessary.

The never-ending distractions, swiping, scrolling, clicking, and bingeing are hurting our relationships,” wrote Therapist Maria G Sosa.(Unsplash)
