Regional Announcement:  Across the globe, psychologists are recognizing a trend… screen addiction!  With the wave of technology sweeping the world, many have been unprepared for the hidden consequences of exposure to so much technology – we have become digitally addicted.

Brad Huddleston, expert in the area of digital addiction, shares some very enlightening and concerning information in this following short video.
