Video Summary:
Dr. K reacts to My Strange Addiction clips and breaks down why these aren't quite as strange as they look — like a guy in a cast who cracked the code on making friends, a tanning obsession rooted in a controlling ex, and a near-fatal sponge habit that didn't stop because the brain optimizes *around* obstacles rather than away from them. Plus: what object relations theory says about why we all chase the things we chase.
