You weren't built for this.

Not the endless pings.

Not the constant scroll.

Not the noise disguised as life.

Overstimulated is a piercing, unflinching exploration of the digital chaos we now call normal. With sharp insight and raw honesty, Howard Hamlin breaks down the silent epidemic of our age — a world where we drown in information, starve for meaning, and can't sit still long enough to hear ourselves think.

This book isn't about quitting the internet or romanticizing flip phones. It's about noticing what's happening to your mind — and learning how to take the wheel back.

Through chapters that blend lyrical reflection with grounded psychological truth, Overstimulated reveals:

Why you feel anxious, numb, or foggy — even after doing "nothing" all day

How overstimulation hijacks your attention, memory, creativity, and emotional clarity

The terrifying cost of constant distraction — and the beauty of stillness

How to reclaim your focus, rest, and original thoughts in a world that won't stop shouting

If you've ever felt burned out for no reason, emotionally flat in the middle of "fun," or like your life's on autoplay — you're not broken. You're overstimulated.

This is your call to quiet the noise — and finally come home to your mind.
