Working Hard with Grace Beverley · How to actually build better habits (and stop getting in your own way) with Nir Eyal · 20 Jul 2026 podcast

Irresistible, consistent impulse that you kind of have to perform or you feel uneasy. matched

So you can say – So you can't have a positive addiction. matched

Interesting. matched

So what I would argue against that is that the earlier and earlier this is being introduced into people's lives, the less control people have over it. matched

And therefore, the more likely it is to actually be what you would qualify as an addiction because it's infiltrated so heavily into the way we're learning, into the way we're communicating, into whatever it might be. matched

So if you are on TikTok at 10 years old, matched

I would be so surprised if the way your brain works doesn't genuinely change in comparison to someone who wouldn't be. matched

Like in terms of the chemical responses, in terms of the level of dopamine you need to actually engage you, in terms of all of these different things. matched

Probably not the right terminology because I don't know anything behind the science, but in terms of... matched

To me, it feels like there must be a difference. matched

And this is not about apportioning blame. matched

It's not like, OK, well, that's the fault of this person. matched

I personally believe that things like social media and particularly short form content is... matched

The earlier and earlier it's introduced, the more likely it is to be an actual addiction. matched

And for far more than three to five percent of the population, purely because you genuinely can't escape it for all of these different reasons. matched

And it becomes harmful in X, Y, Z ways on your cognitive development, on your, you know, all of these different things. matched

So when I'm saying I think most people are addicted to their phones, I'm not fighting against the 3% to 5% statistic because I think more people should be able to qualify for phone addiction so that they don't have the guilt of it or whatever it might be. matched

But I think the easier and easier it's becoming to genuinely spend a whole day on your phone and not have that circuit breaker means I feel like we've passed that point. matched

I think it's 13. matched

But even if you're 13 and you're using it and then you're going to school and trying to concentrate in a lesson and all of these different things. matched
