1:11:22 Well that's weird because when I'm feeling worthless, the last thing I can be bothered with is an orgasm. In fact I just don't get horny at all. Porn and masturbation are the last thing I can be bothered with, in that mindset. I'd rather stare at a wall and think about all the mistakes I made today. lol I look at porn, a lot, for the simple reason that I'm attracted to women and I like looking at them when I'm horny. Is it really any different to closing my eyes and looking at them in my head? Not in my opinion. In fact, using your imagination makes orgasm easier if anything. You can create a whole scenario. I just like looking at pretty, naked women. And frankly I don't see how there is anything wrong in that.
Great crossover. Thanks for having him on the show! If you have him on again: an in-depth talk about dating dynamics would be really interesting.
I've decided to watch this episode everyday. Really motivated me to stay focused. Appreciate big bruh.
This is one of the most powerful podcasts I've seen in a bit, you really need to retitle this to something a bit more fitting for the topics agreed and discussed
i'm sorry but the audio from your end is weird. i've sensory issues so maybe its just me but theres a certain sharpness whenever youre speaking that i have to lower my volume to about a quarter for cause it just hurts my ears
Currently Watching a screen to show me how to stop watching screens.
Error, fatal error made in error, there is not error. Self reference circular definition identified.
Your not alone
*stop watching screens AS MUCH I’m not going to stop watching videos and movies but we’re all probably doing it to a degree that’s not healthy or making us happy
Welcome to the future.
Welcome to the circle of life Simba
Thank you for the great conversation 💚
Dr. K. I need your help on how to limit screen time while watching you on a screen.
Thank you so much Dr K ❤
Too bad that healthygamer is a racist company as dr K complains about "too many white patients".
You’re a hero. Thanks mate
Nice! The Green Heart Chakra
One of my favorite things to do is to just sit quietly in a room and watch it get darker as the sun sets. No screen, no lights, just dark and quiet. I used to do this as a kid 25-30 years ago. It’s very calming and because you’re focusing on the light changes in the room, it’s also very good with clearing the mind.
This sounds amazing
I think this tactic would be way better if you were sitting outside.
I used to make fun of people who were addicted to staring at their phones, then somehow during Covid 19 I went from listening to music during work, to listening to podcasts, to watching the podcasts, to listening/watching/commenting simultaneously. I’ll get home from work, take my boots off, open up KZhead, and then somehow the entire evening disappears and I’m fucking pissed at myself for wasting so much of my time with my nose in my phone. I’m genuinely thinking of getting a flip phone at this point.
So far I've listened to 237 podcasts about how to overcome my podcast addiction. I'm making real progress
The sheer amount of good Dr K must have done for society across all of his content is incalculable. Look forward to this one
Not just his content but his research and professional outreach too!
He is the internet’s surrogate father hahah
@@theowainwright7406 LOL
Chris Williamson is one hell of an interviewer and he keeps improving. This interview shows it again
He is in the elite tier of the podcast arena. Too many creators focus on lame drama - Chris is the opposite
no, he is just one another one interviewer.
Eh, it seems like he's not really listening and instead focusing on the next question he will ask. @1:32:42 He asks Dr. K what Brain fog is, when he had just said its a low-level inflammation in the brain. This interviewer needs to take more time to listen so he can ask more relevant questions.
@@XathurusI mean he’s human, we can’t expect him to be perfect but he does a really good job overall
Finding out that my two most listened to podcasts are collaborating was a really pleasant surprise. I think I speak for everyone here that we're really glad for this goldmind of an episode. Thank you Chris :)
This one's huge!
Me too 🎉
You’re goddamn right
Just taking notes while I’m super high, excuse me. 4:54 Community 11:55 overstimulation and anhedonia 14:30 “the story that you tell yourself about the things that you can do” 16:35 social media not always being a positive emotional experience *I love Dr K’s ability to connect his thoughts and express himself so ficking eloquently 17:55 we all crave the approval of other human beings and now social media quantifies that 20:18 definition of addiction 21:50*hold up he’s actually talking about my diagnosisssss* Compulsions and OCD 26:00 the interviewer asks how to set boundaries around social media, and Dr K phrases it as gaining control of your desires. Love ittt
We dont always need to try harder, "What we really need is just a tiny bit of help" That hit.
As a Christian-- appreciated the note about the people who say "you didn't pray hard enough" as if spiritual help from God is something you have to work hard enough for.
53:02 "this isn't valuable, this is just difficult to get" that's absolute gold!
Basically everything ever sold at a live auction (the kind where people raise a hand to bid). Every "collectible" that's sold for more than original retail price.
Dr K is the goat of mental health and psychology on KZhead. I have watched lots of similar channels, each will have golden nuggets of knowledge once in a while, but I can confidently say I learn so much from each of his uploads.
💚
Agree!
I think that Dr. K is very good but if you've already done many therapies and read a lot of self-help, you might think that he does not go in-depth enough and might not learn anything new. I still watch his content sometimes because I'm curious to hear his particular stance on problems that I'm experiencing but I think that his main selling points are that he packages consistently good advice in a simple way and it's perfectly targeted for his audience.
@@nackedgrils9302 true I played videogames my whole life and only discovered him very recently. I have been down the same self improvement rabbit holes so a lot of it I already know and resonates w/ me. But undeniably this guy is great. Happy there is a niche space to merge excessive screen time and overall well being, lots of people do not realize how unhealthy their condition is.
Yeah, but the vast majority of people are not at this point, so this form is not just the best for his audience, it is what helps the most amount of people in general, who need an introductory level education, simple and accessible explanation, practical tools for various topics inside mental health and inner work. @@nackedgrils9302
I’ve been so hyped for this episode to drop! Big fan of you both 🔥
Oh man Cole u also follow both these guys. Awesome
Oh man cole when did you became a middle aged man, where's my eboy guitarist homie? Anyway didn't thought I'll see you here good to have you
If I wasn't mindlessly scrolling I never would have found this episode.
How much of it did you watch?
70 % of my phone use is looking How to stop it
Start starting at the wall for an hour..
50:40 , Chris you have a new quote to bring up with other guests. "If you succeed and you made a sacrifice, it's very psychologically difficult to swallow that you didn't need to make the sacrifice in the first place" Dr.K Mind blown, I just realised I absolutely align my 'wins' to things I went through difficulty/grind to achieve
100% the survivorship bias on success meaning sacrifice was deep
As a gamer who's been following Dr. K's work for years, gotta admit I was not expecting this collab! Thank you ✨️
Now that you watch him, how many hours would you say you play a week?
@@cu11en76 not many compared to a few years ago. Probably max 8-10 now. Used to be more 30-40ish
Same here, now I don't feel like I'm missing anything out if I don't play a game, if I do decide to play it's after I've done all the hard tasks I have for the day and I'm more in control now thanks to Dr K's help
@@Akuiko thanks
13:16 My guess is "tilting" comes from old-schoold pinball machines. You could shake the machine a little bit to influence where the ball went but if you moved it too much the sensors would detect a "tilt" and end the game. In fits of frustration a player might shake the machine too much and cause it to tilt, which is where the term tilting probably came to mean getting wigged out at a video game.
Dr. K and Healthy Gamer are such a game changer in the mental health space. My life was changed by them. I wish them the utmost success.
Jup, he also showed me what a therapist actually should be like, i only ever had bad ones😊
@@nolandderlugner1351 does mobile phone really fcuk with our mind ?
48:30 the "survivorship bias" factor in evaluating peoples' careers is real, and yes, it needs a catchy name. I think part of what you're getting at is that the people who are broken by the training/selection process are usually overlooked when looking at the successful outcomes (of those who get through ok). We need to ALSO remember though, that some of the most interesting successful people went through many failures along the way, until finally stumbling into something that turned out better. The best measure of life success may be in how well people can recover (and learn) from failure and keep trying. The corollary is that failing should not be seen as very important unless it is has permanent consequences. (To be fair, we also lack good information on how many people go from failure to even worse loss, despair and possibly total collapse. There are good reasons that people usually try to avoid failure.) The discussion somehow put me in mind of politicians in a filibuster debate. He (or she) who can hold their bladder the longest (and stay awake?) can win the vote, by timing it for when enough people on the other side have left the room... What makes for being successful can turn out to be weirdly trivial stuff.
This was pure gold. Felt like I had to pull out my phone to take notes every 5 minutes for the whole 2 hours. Thanks guys, incredible stuff.
Something that's recently occurred to me, and you two are onto it, but we've become so results oriented to the detriment of the process. We need to appreciate the journey as much as the destination. Good podcast, fellas. Thanks for sharing.
"The man who loves walking will walk further than the man who loves the destination."
@@WanderTheNomad that's kinda the entire idea behind buddhism/hinduism/stoicism lol
Dr K - probably one of the most important content creators on the planet. “Humans have become intolerant to boredom”. How profound an observation. And great advice too - “give yourselves a small dose of boredom”. Taking this to the bank
this sounds so hyperbolic but to be honest, right now in our current culture I think this is accurate.
I love Dr K he has been a gift to humanity
"Don't try hard, try easy" is mindblowing.
I’ve managed to eliminate pretty much every bad habit I’ve had. Porn, staying up late watching KZhead, video games, social media and so on. I still struggle with KZhead addiction though. There’s so many better things I could be doing with my time instead of sitting on my phone watching KZhead for 6-8 hours a day.
Yes you can have loads of other things you could be doing but remember that eradicating everything isn’t the answer unless you have a health addiction to replace it with. Don’t view every pass time as a negative thing as well.
I think 2 to 4 hours of intentionally planning to do something feels much better than 6 to 8 hours of just happening to do it when you have free time
Yeah I agree, it's like my brain has labelled KZhead as this healthy thing that couldn't possibly harm me but I end up binge watching it for hours upon hours on end and lose my sense of time
Read doctor Gabor Mate to learn more on what your mind/body/soul is actually looking for
If the funds allow, I'd heavily suggest KZhead premium purely for the background play - I'm heavily KZhead addicted as well, but being able to shut my phone off and have these videos play in the background allows me to do the things I need to do that day without getting sucked in
I love your ability to ask questions during these interviews in a way that's actually helpful to your audience. For example, when you directly asked Dr K "What does someone who wants to improve their gut microbiome need to eat?", that was the exact same thought I had in my mind; and this is just one example of the many questions you asked Dr K during your chat. It shows that 1. you are actually actively listening to him and trying to process his thoughts and comments during the interview and 2. you try to put yourself in the mind of your average viewer and ask questions to your guests in a way that will benefit your audience and answer their burning questions that they're unable to ask as they sit and watch you behind the screen. Your ability to synthesis + summarise your guest's words shortly after they've answered and your ability to ask them such useful questions is the main reason I love your podcasts. Keep it up Chris!
It's interesting listening to this episode because it's so obvious that Dr. K is super comfortable talking to a lot of people all day about these topics. He is so good at condensing the information into an easy to understand state verses some of there other PHDs or scientists who've been on here who can go on for a long time without having much of a change in energy or tone of voice. Maybe it's part of why Dr. K is successful is how energetic he is but this conversation really flowed well with a lot of questions without feeling rushed at any point. just really interesting overall and probably one of your best episodes. Should be included on a greatest hits album.
This ^
As a recovering addict, thank you so much for this episode. I'm going to follow Dr K and dive deeper. I'm a PEER Recovery Support Specialist in training and this is right on topic. Thank you for your time and valuable content. Have a blessed day. Say no to Heroin ❤️
Hey if you’re interested in stuff pertaining to addiction, I’d recommend checking out his two recent streams on addictions and trauma. From there, I’d highly recommend listening to the interviews from like three years ago on the channel. The interviews are the real money because we see the origins of traumas and how to cope with those emotions in real time. For example; I really loved “how to process trauma with CocoB” and “Dealing with a narcissistic father” or something like that
Good on kicking heroin, I can't seem to stop pharmacy Xanax. I went to rehab for and was sober for two months.. 5 years ago. Withdrawals kick my ass and I just don't have the willpower to dig deep and stop, I'm a productive dude, make enough to live. I hate society though, I love people though. I'm fascinated by the utter brutality of mankind, the more I find out, the more I hate.
Good luck wish you were
@@TheXandemic Work out a plan with a medical professional who cares, you will burn out by powering through benzo withdrawals. The problems of the world is too much for one person to take on, don't dig yourself too much into that hole. There's shitty humans and there's awesome and loving humans, that duality will always be there, you get to chose how YOU act and WHO you surround yourself with, not what people do. Much love!
@@erikarnesen6052 I'm gonna have to find some free health care.
Ads feed into the addiction. They compell me to pull out my phone, engage to skip, and feel instant extremely temporary relief
I've find ads help me to stop scrolling on social media. I dislike ads, so if I see them, I feel more inclined to stop scrolling. I use them as a clean stopping point.
"Crowd sourcing your sense of self-worth to the world around you is a sure fire way to be miserable." This is going to stick with me for the rest of my life.
At the same time it’s impossible to create intrinsic self worth without social connections. It’s a fine line to navigate by choosing quality friends who give you positive reinforcement
This is a gold mine. I love all of the things you guys talked about in this video and I'm gonna listen to this again in the future because it's just THAT valueble. This is awesome u guys!
The portion about something being difficult, and something being valuable, and how those don’t always match up; will stick w me forever
Another great interview. Love your questions and guest today. I thought the reframing on how "just because it's difficult doesn't make it meaningful" was awesome. The example about college and studying is also backed by another professor's video I saw (I think he was from Standford) who like 8 years ago shared that studying "harder" isn't necessarily helpful. Studying shorter, more effectively, works better and that could feel "easier". The recontextualization of how social media and p*rn are "compulsive" addictions also makes sense. I also come up with great ideas while showering, that's how I plan my day and life lol thought I was special.
Probably your best episode yet (in my opinion). Thank you for all the priceless information Chris!
It's interesting to me that science is just now backing up what all the major world religions have been preaching for thousands of years. Guard your mind and your heart because it's very easy to take it. As a Christian, I've been reading scriptures about meditation and self-awareness for years now and immediately understood what Dr. K was getting at.
Yup, we have been lacking a form a spirituality in the western world. Hope this turns things around. I believe people are making a switch now
The thing I liked about this guy when I first saw him a few months back, was he seemed to grok the condition of gamers. Not accusing them of being violent mass shooters, or lonely incels, but working to understand and communicate that understanding to the suffering and raise them up. He’s on point. I may not always like how on point he is, but it’s the truth.
Reading. Reading has helped me a fuck ton with this. Shorts were the worst "innovation". Before id watch some anime, or play some video games, but youtube adding shorts has been the worst for my screentime. It is so god damn annoying, that ill open up youtube to listen to a podcast, or play a video essay in the background but the app boots up immeadiately into the shorts and ill go on a (hopefully) 15 minute tangent and forget what i came to do. Its probably the only time ive felt like a company is preying on my ADHD.
And yes it was hard to jump back into reading after basically 10 years of not reading for fun, so ill share what worked and didnt for me. 1. Experiment with genre and authors- i started by trying to read lord of the rings but it was hard getting through even 100 pages so i dropped it for the time being and picked up the way of kings by brandon sanderson and that hooked me. 2. Dont require yourself to read a certain amount, and remember to take breaks if you feel your attention waning put it down for a bit and come back later. 3. Dont leave off on a less interesting part, this is hard to manage sometimes, but i always try to leave off on a part that ill be excited to read the next day. 3. Self help is great, but if you read too much of it, itll start to feel like homework so i recommend spacing it out with another genre that interests you inbetween the self help books you read. Thats about all i got, but if anyone has some more tips id love to hear em
Was so excited for this one and Chris did not disappoint! A great interviewer through and through
I would die to have the luck of speaking with Dr K, he's so incredibly insightful and has already helped me so much for over a year without ever interacting with me
Great interview with a light and comic tone! I didnt know Chris' channel and I was positively surprised with your curiosity and good questions! Thanks for having Dr. K and helping him to walk through his knowledge and provide to the community =D
I really hope that a lot of people listen to this! in 5 years time could be one of most played episode of your channel Chris
Ever since Dr. K had his stream with Destiny I've been waiting for this video to drop!!
The same! Dr. K. for President! 🤣
@@MinifigNewsguydr K is far too sane and rational to want to run for president
1:22:39 I’m a registered nurse not a psychiatrist but yes to this!! They don’t teach you in nursing school how to mentally deal with verbal and physical assault. And learning those tools makes all the difference in being able to cope at your job!
54:00 This feels so important for dialogue between parents and their kids. If you could go back to high school and do it all again, it would be so easy with the knowledge you have now. But it's hard for your kids because they haven't yet learned the tools to deal with problems that they are now encountering for the first time. In hindsight the solutions look obvious.
I’ve been waiting for a conversation with you two forever, I knew it would happen one day. Glad to see it finally happen!
Man, I wasn't expecting Dr. K to become a guest here, but I am so happy. Good stuff, great episode.
thank you for doing what you do! this has been one of my favorite podcasts 👏🏾
came here for the screen addiction part but got so much more out of this. nice content
Yes! LOVE that Dr. K went on this podcast! So hyped for this episode!
This conversation is a gem and is so insightful with practical tips to win against the billion dollar products meant to keep us awake and mess up our lifestyles. Thank you both!❤
Finally connecting all the dots. Just need to find a poop donor to fix life long issues no one has been able to resolve completely for me yet. . You both are another level podcast. I got here from The Diary of a CEO podcast... and 2h of screen time just flew by. Thank you so much, Chris and Dr. K! 💯
I got 10 mins into the video before I realised, ironically, that it's 3.30am right now and I'm exhausted, but I haven't gone to bed because I'm too busy watching videos about helping myself overcome screen addiction and sleep deprivation lmao I'll watch the rest of this tomorrow xD
Main takeaway... Be with the poop 💩! Thanks Chris and Dr. K., appreciate both your channels and ongoing work. 😊
This is like two separate worlds coming together. I’m so excited for this conversation.
Worlds colliding! I love this. You two work well together. I needed this
Thank you! This was a great discussion. I'm struggling to have less screen time,and I feel like I'm slowing down with my goals. But it's not video games, it's social media and you tube 😄
Chris is becoming one of the best podcast on this website
Good episode, thank you for this. This made me realise that I've definitely been on screens for way too many hours each day. When I reflect upon my motivation levels for real life, they have definitely dropped in comparison to how I was a few years ago. I've just set up a plan for a daily limit of screen time starting tomorrow and will replace that time with more productive activities and allocate a few moments throughout the day to 'boredom training' too.
How's this going??
@@blairthompson6227 going pretty well so far :) reading and exercising a bit more, focusing on creating more than consuming. Still slip into the occasional 'where did the time go' amount of mindless scrolling some days but better overall.
One of your best episodes, love both your guys' content so this interview was a treat!
The statement Dr K made about how if people made huge sacrifices value whatever it is more, gave me chills. I know that I read very fast and I learned a long time ago not to tell people (particularly my students) just how fast. People either don't believe me, insist I must not read well, or get resentful and mad. To me, it's not a big deal, it's just what I do.
How do you do it?
One of your best interviews! Thank you!
Absolutely great podcast! I'm gonna have to watch it again later to write down some of the amazingly profound quotes that were said here.
"You have trained your muscles to run a marathon, but have you trained your brain to stare at a wall for an hour?" What a brilliant way of putting it
I love Dr. K! I found him two years ago and completely changed the trajectory of my life.
Excellent episode, I follow you both and was very excited to see this episode. Certainly did not disappoint! Stay awesome ❤
35:50 Hearing this makes me think it may be time to part ways with podcasts, since I always listen while doing something like work
Thank you for helping everyone learn so much. I can see the benefits of being a podcaster
What a brilliant conversation. Thank you!
Man I should have subscribed several podcasts back. Great job Chris!
I don't if you ever read these commets but I hope you do so I'll say it again. "Best podcast on KZhead." The right questions, the right guests,the amount of information you learn, quite astonishing.
i am not a gamer, but i am addicted to youtube videos . I am concerned now that my addiction to listening to youtube influencers and experts is making my brain dissatisfied with socializing with humans IRL.
Around the 53 minute mark where they speak on the bias of difficulty, was so deeply enriching. That which is valuable doesn’t need to be gained by great difficulty.
You guys have great conversations about very current topics. SO great!! 🎉🎉
The human brain is not designed to take criticism from millions of people. Nice. And yes the negative comments hit the hardest 🔥
Now we all can get the celebrity treatment but without any of the perks!
It doesn't even have to be millions. It can be just 100, and it will feel like a million. Or it can be 5 or 10 that has tens, hundreds, or thousands of likes.
43:58 This segment is so key and super insightful. Well done! 👏
I needed to hear this! Thank you both!!
Great episode and love the longer format. More of those please @Chris
55:00 woah... This hit me hard. I now wonder what I got myself into, because his words are true: Ignorance is suffering. Can you try easy? There is almost always a way that makes it all easy once you learned it. "Succeed or give up" is toxic, because it states that when you fail, you gave up. You did not try "hard" enough. *But what´s really going on:* You try hard on the wrong things out of ignorance - and thus end in suffering. Great episode!!!!
There's no shame in trying things that don't work and giving them up. It's stupid to think you need to follow everything through to the end no matter how ill-advised or how wrong it feels otherwise you are a "quitter"
As a gamer for the last 10 years and needs to get out of it. This video is a god send for me and anyone that wants to break the habit
There’s nothing wrong with gaming - it’s just when folks game too much. How much do you play every night?
@@brianmeen2158 everything is Wrong with gaming. It Tricks your mind into thinking you are doing something worthwhile but you are just Wasting your Best years in Front of a Screenshots. Time is short dont waste it casually like this
@@svenmuller5332do you watch movies or tv shows?
The perfect collab idea, great job Chris.
I never expected these two to link up for some reason. Sweet!
Not a gamer, but have been a big fan of Healthy Gamer for quite some time. Cool to see this!
Have been waiting for Dr K forever!
Yes!! So excited for this episode! Both so brilliant
I feel quite emotional after watching that; I wrestle with 'what's the point?' I've seen society change since the 60's and it's not all for the best. thanks ... David
This ones gonna be massive Chris! ❤
I wish you'd went further into the traditional side with him. He mentioned it several times but you didn't seem interested. Anyways, thanks for the video, captivating!
Really appreciated this. New subscriber-just found this channel.
Excellent podcast covering so many subjects - particularly the section on gut health and the microbiome.
I bloody loved this podcast episode. I just made a video about deleting social media and how my mind is SO much more important than all of these companies. Focus and attention is a rare and valuable skill in this modern world, if you can practice boredom and truly learn to be with yourself, and put your mind towards something meaningful and valuable , damn..... I believe you will create magic.
I was just done watching another Dr K video. I love this man.
Very interesting. Thank you both for doing this!
So much amazing stuff in this episode. What a great conversation. ☮️
The term "tilted" comes from angry dudes tilting the pinball table. Too much movement of the table makes the game "tilt" which is an anti-cheating mechanism in pinball machines.
Even when watching this, I feel like i'm not doing enough. and want to tidy up my room while listening or play a videogame or scroll socials. It's like I've reached a standard of overstimulation and am agitated by less stimulous. It's funny, I'm noding along with the points their making, knowing the importance and still, craving to do more on the screen
Amazing, simpley Amazing!!! I am going to start meditating right now. Thank you, guys 🙏
Amazing. Two of my fav people talking about some of my favorite subjects. 😊
