I was so intent on getting to 90 days that I did achieve. But the suggestion came that 'niw you can relax you made it. And the urges crash in. Needed strong self disciple to fight the urge. Made it. Back on track. No relapse.
You gotta switch from it being just 90 days to innerstanding that watching porn and masurbating isn’t natural that’s why we get into Natural relationships with people and I mean healthy ones
Dear Dr. Believe me your words and podcasts dwell on my consciousness, they gimme knowledge and strength on this journey. Of all the channels on the TH-cam community, for me yours is the best. I don't remember with precision when it was the first time I saw "P", but I do remember the first time I do "m" (as a teenager). I wish I knew this type of information (dangers of the easy button) back then, thanks God you came into my life to rescue me of this addiction. Blessings to you, and all your family.
This is fantastic insight Dr Trish, as someone who suffers severely with this this has to be the best explanation I have come across. Day 3 of 'freedom' and many more to follow.
All the time. Been battling for 30 years with and without help. 10 days sober and feels like a year so we but I know the insane dopamine drip is coming! Hopefully I can make it through once and for all! Stay strong brothers and good luck
Another side effect that you've covered before is the objectification of people. Porn makes you look at other people pornographically, like a walking catalog of body parts. And when you get frustrated enough and realize they're actual people going on with THEIR actual lives instead of being there to fulfill YOUR desires, hopefully you'll make the connection. Porn is making you see them this way at an extremely heightened level. Stopping porn doesn't turn that off completely, we're still sexual creatures, but it sure takes some of the edge off. Thanks for pointing out the hidden side effects! It's easy to forget that it's working against you even while you're not doing it.
I've been addicted to porn for about 15 years and thankfully this has never been the case for me. I don't think I really even understand what it's like to objectify someone.
@@OrlandoAponte interesting. I assumed it happened to all guys. Shows you how much I know. Be thankful! You don’t want this ugly and insatiable side effect!
I call B.S. ! I am 60 and never watched porn for more than a couple minutes at a time. My sex drive is through the roof , and I just recently started using porn with my wife as 4 play. That said , our sex and intercourse can last for over an hour on some days, and 3 times a day at that. Muscles that aren't used will whither! I say jack off , have sex as often as the mood hits you and nurture your body's natural desires !
May you live long me from Pakistan I daily pray for your life and say to GOD that your life will be 10000000000 times so that you can save more lives ... May you live long
Thanks for that ,i pray for her too , i am from Algeria and i am so grateful to found Dr Trish Leigh ,God gives her more knowledge, more wisdom and more power to share and to save people
Not engaging is one part, but we have to work on rewiring your brain so it can come back online. I just added a bonus lessons to the 90-day program which talks about this. Use the coupon code JAMIE10, to receive 10% off. You can do this! Check it out www.drtrishleigh.com!
9:10 no intimacy, trust or safety out of bed, moodiness that causes our relationship instability, being overly-critical of me causing low self-worth and self-esteem, disconnection of love, porn and fantasies cause really bad and bland bed habits maybe he's super-fun in fantasies but beyond selfish and boring in bed. I'm very sad because he was an amazing man but porn killed our love, his brain changed.
I’m sorry to hear this. This is exactly what can happen. I hope he can leave the screen behind and find his way back. Just so you know… We have a partners program beginning November 5. I think it’s awesome and it can really help him move through this process. You can check it out on the website very soon.
@@DrTrishLeigh I try to quit I'll do about 6 days and then watch it then it will be 2 days and then it will be every other day for a couple days and then I'll watch it once every day for probs a week and try to quit again. I'm not happy with my life I need to stop but I think I need to improve my life before I'll be able to quit. Any advice. I'm a 16 year old so It difficult to change my life I still have to go to school with out any friendship s.
So one thing that really struck me in this video is how you mentioned others stated they don't like the content they viewed but they knew it was the only way to get that dopamine high. It's known that in escalation, people begin to watch content they originally found disturbing or wrong not because they liked it the entire time, but because dopamine gets bored of the usual content and needs something more extreme to get the same hit. Looking back, I seriously don't like the things I've seen and kept viewing at a young age, and for a long time I've been blaming myself for that over and over again. Really though, I just feel really sorry for my younger self. I'm just glad that ever since last 2020, I've decided to try and kick this out of my life. I've had many relapses here and there in the past but that was also before I found your channel. The difference now is I have your channel and a TON of videos that help get me through the days and I'm not counting the days. Counting the days would mean I'm talking about PMO and thinking about it more than I already am intrusively, and I don't want that. Thank you
How do you deal with the guilt of things that crossed moral boundaries that you have seen and it makes you feel worse because you partook into something that doesn’t fit you or what you want in real life. Little more that 30 days off of the screen and the bad habits and holding strong just need some insight!
I know this has nothing to do with this podcast but from another podcast.I wanted to kind of you cause everything you say is true an the rite way to follow. You said you really don't like to spend money..so today I bought a small metal box an threw a few hundred dollars in it ..especially since all I do is spend money on soda an transportation. Everything you say I know an firmly believe is true so I follow everything you say on all your podcast..I feel better as a result Dr.Trish
All your habits are all connected together. If I break down on one of them, I get this "what the fuk" attitude, then I just break the rest of them. Porn, Alcohol, Fast Food. The trifecta of doom. Dr. Leigh is spot on the money with this one. The general malaise takes over your entire life.
Thank you so much for helping I’ve been celibate for almost a month, & sometimes I want to cry for my younger self I literally held my own self back in life not being able to control lust & it’s not just porn it’s releasing semen far too often I had a girlfriend still doing it. Makes me never want to have sexual thoughts again ever & that’s sad.
DR Trish ,I begin adiction porn 2017 and than I got no solutions.and after I beginn 2020 drug abuse inorder to get solutions.But the drug abuse make porn addiction extrem.it means when I take drugs i start porrn complosry .and they are coloration each other..what I do please?
On the internet can be found several sources which state there is no scientific evidence for porn causing depression and anxiety. Do you have evidence that porn sucks the joy out of life? Thank you for answering this question
I have evidence. My husband of nearly 39 years has had (until 9wks ago) a 30+ year PMO habit. You should ask him how that's worked out for him. Changed his personality, his mood, his sexual capabilities, you name it. If I hadn't spent the last 40 years with the guy (and love him SO much) I would be gone.
I don't watch porn, but I'd like to learn strategies to get the most dopamine rewards from my hobbies, my marriage and my job. Even though I'm not porn-addicted, I still struggle to maintain those things consistently with normal brain function.
What made me stop porn free since august, i started getting headaches real bad after i masturbated, they would last for 10 to 15 mins to maybe 30 mins at the most, but had an mri found nothing, then one night i prayed and the next day i started gathering them up and burning them, threw out all my meds havent felt like that since sometimes mild headaches,
While I agree that leaving porn is the right thing to do in so many ways - the idea that there is a perfect partner out there is just an illusion. I know from experience.
So theoretically, since this increases anxiety it could ultimate be a reason for substantial increase in OCD, anxiety and even anxious tics and twitches that originally were not there growing up?
The Chaser, that is a stronghold in the brain. Reality has been exposed of the easy bottom. I can see it coming, and act with real maturity and confidence to use reason to stop the delusion of fantasy.
Hi Dr.Trish, I have a really important question. You mention to reduce screen time. But I work as a software engineer and really dislike the fact that I am forced to give up my health. How do people whose careers depend on working with a computer cope? Do you have any advice? Many thanks!
Thank you, so much. You are my super Hero 👍. I always get motivated by you and now I am working out in gym for 1 hr 30 mins. I am happy so much. I enjoy my work in office, now I have more frnds in office. Thank you 👍 great work, god bless you with lots of happiness
This video described the last 25 years of my life. I was so active and happy before but I started going to the screen to make up for the lack of sex and intimacy in my marriage. Fast forward and I bored with my daily life and I have no real hobbies. I start things and never finish. I was told a few weeks ago that I have no passion for anything. I was watching porn multiple time a day. I'm on day 20 of the 30 day challenge and I feel better already. I start my day watching that the 30 challenge video. Throughout the day I'll watch other porn addition videos to keep me on track. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Dr Trish you said you are here for us. How exactly do you mean ? You charge for personal help and it’s more expensive than the average person can afford, so when you say you are here for us, what do you mean ? You are only there for the ones who can afford to pay you, so please don’t make out like you are some personal support network and promise to be here for us , because unless we have the money it simply isn’t true.
That’s not true at all. I have programs that are less than $20 and I provide all the information on this channel for free using my time, energy, and money. If people want to work with me personally it is still less than getting a therapist. I am here for you.
@@DrTrishLeigh I apologize if my comment seemed inflammatory in any way. It’s just that when you are struggling financially, and you have a young family to take care of, there is no spare money to deal with the addictions (like porn) that help get you through the day and give you a moment of relief. It’s a viscous cycle and you keep telling yourself “one day when I can afford it I will get proper help” , but that day never comes. I can’t afford to give one cent to this right now. So what hope do people like me have ? I do understand though, you are not a charity , and you are just trying to do a job and get paid for it like everybody else. Thanks for the free advice anyway.
@@Maximus25N Can you check jk emzy utube channel ? He chargging thousands of dollar... Still people paying him.. Because this addiction dangeorous than u think...it stolen every thing in ur life....soon or later u will understand this...... And making a utube vedio sharing free advises is not a bad thing.. An proffessional therappist never share those kind of information for free..... She is not forcing u to do pay money ... Thats ur choice....
Could you please edit the title so that it says 'What you can't tell is happening until it's TOO late'. The way you have it...'What you can't tell is happening until it's late'...really doesn't have the same meaning.
I don't know what to do anymore. I tried everything. but every time I tried I failed . I wonder the way to quit porn is to think about quit or try to forget the whole problem . I tried to forget the whole problem but it's not work for me . and when I think to quit porn every day it makes me to watch porn again because think about quiting porn remind me to watch porn again
@@DrTrishLeigh indeed. So, what would you say about the people and companies behind it. Just bad for your brain or bad to keep these people around entirely?
I noticed that porn addiction is not actually classified as a addiction by the medical establishment, do you think this is because its symptoms are not as apparent or severe as alcoholism or heroin addiction? Or do you think this is because psychologists are bad at their job? These questions are not rhetorical by the way, I find your videos helpful and hope to make use of them, as I’m struggling myself.
Maybe the porn industry or medical establishment don't want you to recognize how much it is addictive. This is what i personal believe. A product which is so addictive and so easy accessible at the same time, makes me think that this is on purpose.
I desperately need to get to marriage counseling, but my wife absolutely refuses. We used to have a great sex life, and suddenly, she started refusing, and litterly pushing me away. I love her, and don't want to go out on her, yes, porn viewing has been a crutch for me. I don't know what to do, at this point. Thank you so very much for your videos, you ARE the tough friend I need! I don't dare talk to anyone I know about this. Would going to a marriage counselor by myself do any good? My wife is younger than me, age difference between us never mattered, I didn't think.
My husband did quit porn but he is a "rubber necker" , wandering eyer... and he has a "roving eye" he has an ultra awareness of every attractive or beautiful lady everywhere we go., is this a transfer of his past viewing into his life without Porn now? Can he scrap this behaviour also? He is aware of this impulsivity and is lessening the looks... at least when he is with me in public places.. but it's annoying nonetheless..
Dr. Trish, I believe the bad effects you mentioned are not just for porn but also for any type of addiction, may it be online gaming, drugs, gambling, etc. Any form of addiction takes the beauty of life in our lives.
No, porn is a super estimuli, that doesn't exist in real life, and create a powerful cocktail in the brain, people have been fantasizing since the beginning of time with less extreme consecuences
This Dr is just Fantastic all this unbelievable science and information all for free .she is helping thousands of men . Without her so many would be falling into the trap of porn . I wish her all the success in the world she deserves it 🥰
Very well said, it was a pleasure to listen. Your explanation came with enough science and correct word choice to make the big picture vivid to all of us. Thank you so much for everything you do. God Bless! Campaign remove the easy-button from the bedroom. Where is a good place for your easy-button?
Once in a while is not that bad..We are fantasizing porn in our brain anyway...Not necessary dirty porn of course! Who doesn't like good strong sex with different poses?
That's literally porn. You're kidding yourself. This modern desire for athletic, competitive sexual expression is completely perverse and banal. Especially sex that is disconnected from reproduction - it's no different than PMO.
Not sure why this is in my watch list, as no porn has been watched...but "riding off into the sunset" sounds like a good metaporn(sic), so as they say on Dragon`s Den, "I`m in". Will watch the remaining 14:44 :)
i personally would much rather have my porn addiction, i like it. but i’m also a female so maybe it’s not so bad :/. i dont want a relationship anyway, i love being single and i have no attraction to real people
This Dr is the best literally exactly what I'm going through
I was so intent on getting to 90 days that I did achieve. But the suggestion came that 'niw you can relax you made it. And the urges crash in. Needed strong self disciple to fight the urge. Made it. Back on track. No relapse.

- Don't think about p
- Don't talk about p
- Don't use p

While I agree that leaving porn is the right thing to do in so many ways - the idea that there is a perfect partner out there is just an illusion. I know from experience.
I think you can find someone to share your life with happily.
I haven’t ever found one in my 60 years, but I believe it can happen for some people
So theoretically, since this increases anxiety it could ultimate be a reason for substantial increase in OCD, anxiety and even anxious tics and twitches that originally were not there growing up?
The Chaser, that is a stronghold in the brain. Reality has been exposed of the easy bottom. I can see it coming, and act with real maturity and confidence to use reason to stop the delusion of fantasy.
How long does it take for the withdrawals to go?
It is different for everybody but usually once you get past a few weeks you start feeling magnanimously better.

An proffessional therappist never share those kind of information for free.....
She is not forcing u to do pay money ...

Why was that?
Could you please edit the title so that it says 'What you can't tell is happening until it's TOO late'. The way you have it...'What you can't tell is happening until it's late'...really doesn't have the same meaning.
Hard to fight this alone
I don't know what to do anymore. I tried everything. but every time I tried I failed . I wonder the way to quit porn is to think about quit or try to forget the whole problem . I tried to forget the whole problem but it's not work for me . and when I think to quit porn every day it makes me to watch porn again because think about quiting porn remind me to watch porn again
Any way to get in touch with you privately? Really need some help!
You can reach out to Jamie at info@drtrishleigh.com. She can help arrange it.
Thank u very much
What if you did like it when you first saw it ?
It is still very bad for your brain 🧠.
@@DrTrishLeigh indeed. So, what would you say about the people and companies behind it. Just bad for your brain or bad to keep these people around entirely?
My best streak IT 30 days And then i relapsed 😢 But i will keep trying again And again until i win Wish me Luck !!
I really appreciate all your help Doc
Thank you. I appreciate your support.
My hobbies my whole life was video games but I'm trying to end that addiction too 🤔
No more taking the easy way out!
Is Masturbation in generell Okey (without pornographic thoughts or Videos, etc) ?
Compulsive masturbation is not good for you. That means masturbating consistently and frequently to destress and regulate your mood.
I noticed that porn addiction is not actually classified as a addiction by the medical establishment, do you think this is because its symptoms are not as apparent or severe as alcoholism or heroin addiction?
Or do you think this is because psychologists are bad at their job?
These questions are not rhetorical by the way, I find your videos helpful and hope to make use of them, as I’m struggling myself.
Maybe the porn industry or medical establishment don't want you to recognize how much it is addictive. This is what i personal believe. A product which is so addictive and so easy accessible at the same time, makes me think that this is on purpose.
@@Berliner90 just like the modern day junk food we eat big pharma makes millions to treat the diseases caused by it so with porn to some degree.
Because the industries are controlled by the same people

Dr Trish think u
Good explained 👍🏻
I desperately need to get to marriage counseling, but my wife absolutely refuses. We used to have a great sex life, and suddenly, she started refusing, and litterly pushing me away. I love her, and don't want to go out on her, yes, porn viewing has been a crutch for me. I don't know what to do, at this point. Thank you so very much for your videos, you ARE the tough friend I need! I don't dare talk to anyone I know about this. Would going to a marriage counselor by myself do any good? My wife is younger than me, age difference between us never mattered, I didn't think.
Look into CSAT therapists. ❤️
I really like your videos
My husband did quit porn but he is a "rubber necker" , wandering eyer... and he has a "roving eye" he has an ultra awareness of every attractive or beautiful lady everywhere we go., is this a transfer of his past viewing into his life without Porn now? Can he scrap this behaviour also? He is aware of this impulsivity and is lessening the looks... at least when he is with me in public places.. but it's annoying nonetheless..
woooww!! the devil comes to kill steal and destroy!! this is so evil
cool intro :)
Dr. Trish, I believe the bad effects you mentioned are not just for porn but also for any type of addiction, may it be online gaming, drugs, gambling, etc. Any form of addiction takes the beauty of life in our lives.
What about masturbating without watching porn ? Will fantasizing also affect our brain the same way as watching ?
No, porn is a super estimuli, that doesn't exist in real life, and create a powerful cocktail in the brain, people have been fantasizing since the beginning of time with less extreme consecuences
This Dr is just Fantastic all this unbelievable science and information all for free .she is helping thousands of men .
Without her so many would be falling into the trap of porn . I wish her all the success in the world she deserves it 🥰
Very true
very interesting
Shopping, gambling, drinking, pharmaceuticals, self mutilation and stimulation, over eating, bulimia, gaming .
Very well said, it was a pleasure to listen. Your explanation came with enough science and correct word choice to make the big picture vivid to all of us. Thank you so much for everything you do. God Bless! Campaign remove the easy-button from the bedroom. Where is a good place for your easy-button?
Awesome
Once in a while is not that bad..We are fantasizing porn in our brain anyway...Not necessary dirty porn of course! Who doesn't like good strong sex with different poses?
That's literally porn. You're kidding yourself. This modern desire for athletic, competitive sexual expression is completely perverse and banal. Especially sex that is disconnected from reproduction - it's no different than PMO.
Not sure why this is in my watch list, as no porn has been watched...but "riding off into the sunset" sounds like a good metaporn(sic), so as they say on Dragon`s Den, "I`m in". Will watch the remaining 14:44 :)
13:50 I literally become more attractive when I leave porn. WOW!!!! THAT'S AWESOME
You do. It is true. 🙌🏻
@@DrTrishLeigh I know!! I feel it in the way people look at me when I abstain from porn
What is PMO 🤔
Porn, masturbation, orgasm... Is the main mechanism that reinforces neuropathways and is key to create and addiction
i personally would much rather have my porn addiction, i like it. but i’m also a female so maybe it’s not so bad :/. i dont want a relationship anyway, i love being single and i have no attraction to real people
