Do You Feel Exhausted But Can’t Seem to Slow Down?
You’re running on fumes—exhausted but stuck in a brain loop. You speed through tasks, live on autopilot, and deep down… you know something’s not right. That’s not just stress. That’s your brain waving a red flag.
You might be stuck in what Dr. leigh’s call Strained Brain—a state of chronic hyperdrive where your mind runs too fast for too long.Or maybe the opposite has taken hold: you’re feeling numb, disconnected, unmotivated, and overwhelmed. That’s Drained Brain. Either way, your nervous system is crying out for help.
Strained Brain: The Hidden Addiction to Hyperdrive
You’re always doing. Always thinking. Always pushing. And maybe you tell yourself, “I thrive under pressure.” But what if that constant productivity is actually a trap?
Strained Brain feels deceptively good at first. You’re alert. Accomplished. Even praised for being “on top of everything.” But that’s high beta brainwave activity hijacking your nervous system. Over time, it robs you of clarity, calm, and sleep. It leads straight to burnout.
High-achievers often confuse this state with peak performance. But if you’re tossing and turning at night, snapping at people you love, or secretly dreading the next day’s grind—you’re not thriving. You’re surviving.

Drained Brain: The Dopamine Trap Keeping You Stuck
Maybe your brain isn’t buzzing. Maybe it’s barely moving. You can’t focus, can’t care, can’t move forward. That’s Drained Brain—and screen time is a major culprit.
When you consume too much digital stimulation, especially from high-dopamine sources like porn or endless scrolling, your brain’s reward system goes numb. You feel like you’re in neutral. No motivation. No joy. No drive. You may even feel frozen—and that’s not a metaphor. It’s a physiological freeze state rooted in your nervous system.
The scary part? Your brain can get stuck there. But the good news? It doesn’t have to stay that way.
✅ Your 4-Step Plan to Rewire Your Brain and Regain Control
1. Identify Your Pattern
Ask yourself:
- Do I feel anxious and overly driven, even when I’m exhausted? (Strained Brain)
- Or do I feel disconnected, numb, and unmotivated? (Drained Brain)
Recognizing your brain state is the first step to reversing it.

2. Take Strategic, Science-Backed Breaks
You don’t need a vacation—you need real neurological relief.
📅 Every 75 minutes, take a 15-minute reset break:
- Go outside
- Stretch or move your body
- Breathe deeply or sit in silence
If that feels like too much, start with 3 minutes. Even micro-pauses help shift your nervous system from survival mode to regulation.
🔁 Make it a habit. Over time, your brain will learn how to calm itself again.
