In this episode of Breaking My Addictions, Clive is joined by Matt and Dom for an honest conversation about thinking, overthinking, and what happens when our minds get overloaded by constant information, news feeds, algorithms, and doom-scrolling.

We explore how mental noise quietly feeds anxiety, distraction, and old coping patterns, and how easy it is to confuse being “informed” with being overwhelmed. The conversation touches on mental diet, attention, self-regulation, creativity, and simple ways of noticing when our thinking is helping us live well, and when it is quietly working against us.

This is not a how-to guide or a set of fixes.

It is a grounded, human conversation about noticing our own mental habits, learning when to step back, and finding steadier ways to relate to our thoughts in a noisy world.

No gurus. No perfect answers. Just real talk about living with more clarity and less mental clutter.

This episode offers a profound exploration of inner growth, acceptance, and the journey towards a more fulfilling and purposeful life with counsellor and healer Andrew Dettman, who shares his personal journey of overcoming addiction and finding spiritual connection.
