I lost a decade from this addiction. I was miserable. Got married & got out of this addiction. I felt a curse lifted off my life. HOPE everyone finds help to get out of this addiction.
it ruins your thoughts, ruins your relationships, and ruins your perception of life. Which is what I'm experiencing. If you don't find and build healthy habits and exercises to overcome porn, it WILL drag you down to a dark place. Even if you never turn into a sexual predator, you will have a huge dark cloud looming over you that will not go away.
I feel you, i have been addicted to it for 8 years, it kills your whole brain(mind), body and soul slowly, this is one of the greatest trap a man can fall into(it's very detrimental)
@@ruzimabonieck6908 Wrong! My wife and I have great sex, been married 33 years, porn is a part of our sex life. We started watching porn while we were dating. Why hasn’t our 33 year marriage been ruined by porn?
Wishing all those struggling with this addiction all the strength they need to take charge of themselves from the grip of the darkness. May you experience peace and light and stand tall before all tempting addiction. 🙏
So glad that this showed up on my page. I have been struggling with this habit for over 4 years now and I’m desperately trying to break free. I am now 5 days clean .
The key is to make it uninteresting, boring, cheap. And also the trap of addiction is being so all in or all out. Oscillating hardcore. Because to cut it out incrementally means you actually have to face the discomfort without shutting off from yourself. If that makes sense. Happens with losing weight or diet too. It's harder for people to be consistent and incremental because that means you're actually doing the work. People will go all in and burn out then revert back and say it's too hard.

Work at it everyday friend. Don't get too caught up on relapses. Remind yourself every day its effects, the benefits of not watching it, the type of person you want to be. Don't make excuses. Acknowledge and remove your triggers. For me, the hardest part was acknowledging social media as soft porn, that also has a negative effect but was always a trigger for me and it was hard to acknowledge it was 'the' problem. I didn't want to hurt my social life so I turned on 'less sensitive content' in settings and deleted apps that didn't give you the option to stop soft porn. Happy to say I can't remember the last time I watched porn or used it. However my path to a better self still continues and I try to commit to no fap completely.
This drug is so dangerous to us all we need to stop consuming this i tried several times but this time i break the cycle whoever dealing this to get out you are not alone there is always a light at the end of the tunnel keep on fighting. Godspeed kings
I believe that once society returns to faith in God many of these problems will be healed! 🙏🏽✝️ Bottom line modern society is overtaken by overconsumption and greed in many different forms. Porn is just one of the many ways the sickness of our society is manifested. Lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes and the pride of life are the enemy’s oldest weapons!
You're a fool or ignorant if you think it's that easy or that people have wisdom on how to do that, even the practice of that takes more than what ordinary people can endure since they don't grow up being taught how to stay consistent everyday with a firely focus.
Thanks as always for the content! I will be wearing your “porn kills love” shirt to a marathon in September. If I can make even one person curious about the sentiment, it’s a win in my books.
My wife and I have been watching porn since we were dating. We’ve now been married 33 years with three successful children. It won’t be the first slogan on a shirt that express the ignorance of the wearer.
I’d like to see a longer form video like this that simply goes into greater depth and detail of each of these things. I feel like there is so much more detail that could be discussed here.
How is it possible that they do not talk about choosing the type of porn? There can be times in the life of a person where they do not have a sexual partner. Some of us appreciate a bit of visual stimulation for self-pleasuring. "Porn has become more violent over the years" This may be so but what if you choose something aesthetic and consensual? If right afterwards you feel disgusted by what you just watched you chose the wrong material.
Porn turned me into someone with a highly Promiscuous Mindset and I was not like that before, now I'm trying to break free and retrain my mind and my body to be addicted to the love and affection of one person only and not the "female form," as a whole.
Yeah agree. If i could get a girlfriend i won't watch porn. Many scientist confuse the chain of event. They think us watching porn is the cause of inability to build intimacy with opposite gender. In fact is actually the opposite.
You can fix it by being that guy. Think about it. If you think you will be intimate with someone who is unattractive. Why don’t you do something about it? Many men and women want to be victims so bad, when it is easy to fix. Be that guy or woman and you won’t lack it.
My therapist asked me to "describe" a porn addiction, I explained it as "imagine your sexuality is a battery and healthy sex and honest relationships charge your battery, porn charges your battery, but it charges it with a "negative" charge and this constant negative charging corrodes your battery and the side effect of a corroded battery?...... and this blew his mind
Dr. Joe Dispenza says negative emotions are addictive. No matter what it is. The stronger the emotions the more addictive it is, because emotion creates a chemical in the brain. The body is part of the subconscious mind, the body starts to crave negative emotions, without you realizing it. The subconscious mind works the same way as a computer program and the subconscious mind is a habit mind, it works 99 - 95 percent of the day. The conscious mind works 1 - 3 percent of the day. Well, the therapist will not tell you it because you would buy a book about how the brain works and you would unlearn bad habits by using your logic and instincts. Watch Dr. Joe Dispenza and Dr. Bruce Lipton's videos.
You can't charge a battery with a negative charge if you could a negative charge would mean it would not get charged so porn would not harm if you did take in negative charge s the positive charges you take would be equal you can't have one without the other
Did porn cause the changes to the brain or did changes in the brain cause increased porn usage? The studies are useless if they dont have a baseline from the subject prior to them starting to use porn, and for me that would mean they would have had to done a brain scan when i was 12.
You should look up the experiment where they took a whole bunch of men of the same standing and all physically fit. They had half watch porn and they found that the ones who did where less active and lost grey matter in the brain.
@@LP-mh6ri uhm no. Porn has scientific proof of being negative to your brain. Not to mention all the pedophile and sex trafficking that you supported for 8 years.

This is a great channel. However, whoever decides to turn off comments on so many of the videos needs to get over themselves. Let people discuss these topics and stop being so damn scared of discourse.
The actual statistics are that the rate of violent crime and sex-based crimes have been decreasing for years. So it's no wonder that FTND doesn't cite any actual statistics, because the facts are not on their side.

You can’t study pornography in isolation. People watch porn for many reasons. You can be depressed, bored, lonely, and especially the decline of many people who lost the ability to create meaningful relationships in this age of social media. Years ago, I'd go to dance clubs to dance with women and meet new friends. But Nobody dances anymore. Men and even women are sexually frustrated and relieve it by watching porn. It actually keeps men out of trouble. This is not to say I promote pornography, rather, pornography exist because we live in a sick materialistic society in addition to the fact that our understanding of sexuality is retrograde It is infused with too much morality at the expense of understanding sexuality as a natural healthy experience. We make such a big deal about it and a lot of men and women end up with distorted and regressive understanding of it. They act it out by all manner of sexual abuse. We then punish these people, but no one‘s asking why it is occurring in the first place. It’s hard to believe we haven’t figured it out yet.
As a woman it's really unfortunate when you see guys not talk to woman or look at woman as people. There is a certain absence in the eyes and a palpable projection onto us when this happens. Aside from feeling grossed out by it because obviously it's not appealing, it's sad. I do my best to talk to men directed at their hearts and try to tap into their innocent human side. Like hey, snap out of it. Just connect with me as a human being not something to be gotten as if picking something out of grocery isle at your convenience and pleasure. Men across the board have this issue but guys who have it the most are the ones who have chosen not to develop regular interactions with the public, community. Instead on computer or phone excessively. Key is to get in nature, do things away from your phone. Write out (not type out) all the things you value in women as human beings that are honorable, respectful. Start catching your thoughts, when you look at a woman ask am I seeing here beauty with reverence and honor or am I seeing her as a pleasure object? Realize that when you don't make the choice to counter the unhealthy habits you're being a perpetrator not a protector. Women are supposed to feel safe around men, not guard themselves from men.
This has nothing to do with sexual videos. This is in response to the clear desires of women themselves. Men have learned that women are not interested in men who want to know them as a person. Men have learned that you must approach a woman with clear intentions of sexual desire and also show your sexual prowress within the first five minutes. This is the only way that women will want to start a relationship with you. Those are the rules created by women even the ones who are college educated and CEOs. Men such as myself are simply following their desires
@@markfennell1167that's very sad to hear. I'm 63 years. Objectify people as just that.. objects only is a huge social problem. Need to all command self respect, or end up lost with nothing of loving nurturing permanence.
@@AnonymousUser-ss2qr it's all good if you're implying you're into guys. The point of my initial comment, if you missed it, was that porn changes how you think and what you think about i.e. How you view women as you walk by them just as one example..or men.
Well after a certain time, we grow up and get bored😂! And then we just ignore it. I believe not Porn but TH-cam is a complete form of addiction 😂, as I always get new and vibrant content.
It's impossible to quit. I've been struggling with it for years. I am powerless. I wish there was a way to just flip a switch and not be addicted. It has a hold on me and I can't quit. Quitting porn is like trying to stop breathing. You can hold your breath and say you'll never breathe again, but the whole time your mind is just waiting to inhale. I'm a lost soul. 😔
It’s not impossible, I’ve seen it happen with my own eyes, with my own mind, look into this book “Like Dragons They Did Fight” never give up hope, you are more powerful than you know!
It’s not impossible, friend. You can do it. I also felt like this. I tried to stop watching porn for 2.5 years and I kept relapsing. Sometimes I would resist for days, sometimes for weeks but I would go back inevitability. And one day, I just stopped watching. It was, indeed, like flipping a switch. I got help from blocking apps and content like this video. And eventually it worked. Just don’t stop trying. The switch moment will eventually happen to you too. I promise
Ask yourself whether you are actively curious about different content that feeds your mental satisfaction like science, sports, history, music, and hundreds of other areas that stimulate the brain and make you passionate. If some of them create great excitement, you may try it, or start doing some sport and go to nature. and don't feel shame about previous hobbies. Because it's not your real personality anyway, especially if you like other hobbies. The industry tricked your mind to like it. Other hobbies create serotonin melatonin and other health hormones in the brain.
I dont know bro, I think the way people raised and taught to basic human norms is more key in detecting acceptable and unacceptable behaviour, for example sexual aggression. A kid with well adjusted parents wont deem rape or agression towards women an acceptable thing wether he watches porn or not. Well he wont even watch those kind of porn either because he will be able to recognise that it's wrong.
Gosh I hope so. My sons say they love wholesome family experiences we have and I pray that is enough to help them make healthy decisions for themselves in this life x
My friends said porn is like anime or cartoon, in anime you can shoot fireball, flying, fall from 30th floor and still alive, but surely you don't want to try it in real life right
I understand what you’re trying to say, but it’s simply not true. Your mind on porn is not anything like your mind in real life, this is the whole reason why you feel so bad after watching it. You know it’s unhealthy and horrible, but the porn mind doesn’t care, it’s selfish and it’s only aim is to “get off” the way that’s most exciting for it. It doesn’t care how long it will take to recover or the damage it’s done.
Is it only me who thinks its difficult to talk to females knowing you have a porn addiction like I feel uncomfortable around them and shy and can't make eye contact without feeling uncomfortable ligit I truly think porn has effected my way of looking at females.
Thank you so much a diverse approach to this important issue. Your podcast is wonderful, but I love the addition of this brief video employing the voices of experts. Great job! Your work is absolutely vital! Keep it up!
I’m not going to ever watch porn again 😮 I don’t usually watch pornography anyway but I would be a liar if I said I never watch pornography. I’m a Christian JW and I watch pornography maybe once a month on my Oculus virtual reality headset because it’s more realistic but now I’m never watching pornography again. It’s a major sin and I always pray for forgiveness afterwards because I feel bad for watching it. Well this is another reason to not watch it again!!!
Because of using porn since I was 11 years old, now at the age of 20, I have had it weaken my entire body. I have a lover and they are very hurt when they know that I am weakened by watching porn and having sex. too much semen, I even tried to commit suicide twice when I was always facing depression and insomnia for the past 3 years and still have no way to improve it... You guys look at me, look again me_don't let porn and masturbation ruin your life...like me... Thank you for the video program for bringing a useful experience to those who are addicted to this toxic thing - new age cocaine.
Like the idea of the video but it's too complicated to understand a single thing well next time make a video for people who don't understand the complex biology terms and for teens
I didn't watch the video but they probably are talking about how you rewire the brain. That just means something becomes a habit. Not only that but also porn is an emotional habit which makes it stronger than normal ones. My guess is they don't talk about how to rewire the brain to get unaddicted. If you really wanna quit stop watching these kind of videos. They just keep you focused in the wrong direction. These videos are rewiring you to think a certain way about porn but that's not the solution. Porn isn't the problem. It's us who are the problem. This video is great for someone who has never watched porn because it rewires them to stay away from it but this isn't going to help the people who already have watched porn many times. Same with cigarette users. Although influence and environment can rewire one to be susceptible to doing cigarettes, alcohol, drugs etc. This is why the ghetto is the way it is. People passing down bad habits to the next generation over and over. So if you are struggling with porn you're wasting your time with these videos. I'm not implying it's too late.
lol, It doesn't matter whether it involves real people or not, long-term porn use will fuck up your brain so baldy you'll become like a zombie. Stay away from pornography before its too late
@@basil9633 Theres literally no scientific evidence. literally none. People just dont like porn/blame porn for their problems because it seems bad/evil

My husband asks if OnlyFans is as bad. I said I'm not that familiar but it does seem to offer more control over one's content. BUT I'm sure many performers on there are also in coerced situations behind the scenes.
I dont know why but hearing "violence towards women during dating mishaps" makes me laugh, it's a funny way to describe such a horrible thing. Something scary is the rise in pro-rape porn, where the girl is shown to be demanding rough, violent sex.
And yet the statistical rates of violence and sexual violence continue to drop year by year. I'm afraid the actual data doesn't support the conclusions you wish to draw.
@@Eisenbison firstly; the conclusion I "wish to draw" is that pro-rape porn is increasing. Secondly, migrant rapes are increasing in Sweden, Germany and a few other Scandinavian countries. I can find the stats if you want. If I show them, what do I get?
@@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805 Given that those same people have also been responsible for an increase in non-sexual crime, I honestly can't see how you can blame porn for that 🤣
@@Eisenbison It can explain the sex-crime increase, Im sure the anti-social conditioning and brain deteriorating effects of porn contributed and/or compounded the violent tendencies. (right off the top of my head, in 2016 i migrant walked into a families house with a boner and said I want to f*ck to the mother and daughter, the father came downstairs, called him a slur and threw him out. the dad got charged for using a slur and the migrant got a slap on the wrist. only a r-tard who has seen too much porn would think thats an acceptable thing to do.)
I want to love and feel more. I lost my wonderful girlfriend because of my numbness, I got hurt so bad and my self esteem got lowered so far. For me to go through that and still watch porn, I'd have to be incredibly stupid. Never again. I'm handling this addiction.

@@AnonymousUser-ss2qr What is that something else?
Yeah agree. If i could get a girlfriend i won't watch porn. Many scientist confuse the chain of event. They think us watching porn is the cause of inability to build intimacy with opposite gender. In fact is actually the opposite.
You can fix it by being that guy. Think about it. If you think you will be intimate with someone who is unattractive.
Why don’t you do something about it?
Many men and women want to be victims so bad, when it is easy to fix. Be that guy or woman and you won’t lack it.
@@drillingig2368 People have strange desires in this world; I've seen a women attracted to a guy who has nothing to offer her and vice versa.

My therapist asked me to "describe" a porn addiction, I explained it as "imagine your sexuality is a battery and healthy sex and honest relationships charge your battery, porn charges your battery, but it charges it with a "negative" charge and this constant negative charging corrodes your battery and the side effect of a corroded battery?...... and this blew his mind
Dr. Joe Dispenza says negative emotions are addictive. No matter what it is. The stronger the emotions the more addictive it is, because emotion creates a chemical in the brain.
The body is part of the subconscious mind, the body starts to crave negative emotions, without you realizing it. The subconscious mind works the same way as a computer program and the subconscious mind is a habit mind, it works 99 - 95 percent of the day. The conscious mind works 1 - 3 percent of the day.
Well, the therapist will not tell you it because you would buy a book about how the brain works and you would unlearn bad habits by using your logic and instincts.
Watch Dr. Joe Dispenza and Dr. Bruce Lipton's videos.
You can't charge a battery with a negative charge if you could a negative charge would mean it would not get charged so porn would not harm if you did take in negative charge s the positive charges you take would be equal you can't have one without the other
Thank you so much for such an informative and eye-opening content!🙏
Be positive, respect everyone, respect every relationships, be a good person
I wish to god I knew how neurologically dangerous porn was 10-15 years ago.
Did porn cause the changes to the brain or did changes in the brain cause increased porn usage? The studies are useless if they dont have a baseline from the subject prior to them starting to use porn, and for me that would mean they would have had to done a brain scan when i was 12.
You should look up the experiment where they took a whole bunch of men of the same standing and all physically fit. They had half watch porn and they found that the ones who did where less active and lost grey matter in the brain.
Okay
@@LP-mh6ri uhm no. Porn has scientific proof of being negative to your brain.
Not to mention all the pedophile and sex trafficking that you supported for 8 years.
That's part of the problem, and you are right -- it would require longitudinal control data.
Porn does not make you a rapist. But it may be a time vampire. And it may suck the joy out of real connections.
I pray for all and ask that you pray for me as well; to end this violent, disgusting, and dehumanizing addiction once and for all.

Thanks for doing this!!!
I wish this was less "self-abuse", and more a socio-psychological connection to explain transgender porn, cosplay porn and "ovipositor" porn....
It has affected my life and others around me..... This is unethical and damaging to true love
Especially to your body and mind, it events a teenager from growing well znd reaching his or her body height
Porn is hardly the "new drug"-- it is as old as humanity. You can stop feeling guilty about it and go out and find real life sex partners.
Porn is ruining women because they watch porn more and the reason they have high body counts
Appreciate the content you guys make.
Even if the brain doesn't change the amount of time consuming it is better spent elsewhere
Very informative
Thanks for shining light on this ❤
So glad this was helpful! Keep fighting!

How much porn watching is considered as addiction?
Just don't watch it
Great video but I can't stand the style of documentary film making where you are constantly filming the crew or a monitor, it's not artsy
Porn is evil 📛👹
This is a great channel. However, whoever decides to turn off comments on so many of the videos needs to get over themselves. Let people discuss these topics and stop being so damn scared of discourse.
No surprise here! Porn rots your brain!
kepp up the good work!
Just curious, where are the stats?
The actual statistics are that the rate of violent crime and sex-based crimes have been decreasing for years.
So it's no wonder that FTND doesn't cite any actual statistics, because the facts are not on their side.
in this day and age im not surprised men watch more porn.
Yay, a no brainer, what about all the violence that comes at us from the blockbusters? Are we getting more violent too?
I'm curious what these same people say about violent video games and movies. 🤔
Im so angry that nobody is held accountable for what using porn did to my life I was 13 years old when I started using it.
you need to hold yourself accountable if you're an adult
@@af5275 duh that's a good idea but I'm talking about the porn industry should be accountable if they caused the suffering of millions of minors. You are obviously to unintelligent to understand what I was saying.
How old are you now?
17 I think
@@af5275 you are such an idiot when I say someone needs to be held accountable I'm referring to putting content out just to make money and it turns out porn producers are trying to destroy love with pornography, the average age of a person starts using porn is in their teens, uhhhh duhhh its not the teenagers fault why they are addicted.
If nothing else tell yourself I'd rather not get erectile dysfunction and not be able to use it.
If you abuse it you lose it.
I wonder what these people would say about violence and video games
In your minds just replace the word *porn* with *tax* 😅
but tax is a 'real' problem.
Day 9 free of this filth, I feel great in my soul Alhamdulilah
Can watching to much porn cause Schizophrenia

Extremely smart people💙🧑🏻
is this a documentary ? if yes, what's it called ?
It's a way some people make money.
does stop watching porn can rewires our brain?
It decays the wiring.
This was a good one to watch 🤔
You can’t study pornography in isolation. People watch porn for many reasons. You can be depressed, bored, lonely, and especially the decline of many people who lost the ability to create meaningful relationships in this age of social media. Years ago, I'd go to dance clubs to dance with women and meet new friends. But Nobody dances anymore. Men and even women are sexually frustrated and relieve it by watching porn. It actually keeps men out of trouble. This is not to say I promote pornography, rather, pornography exist because we live in a sick materialistic society in addition to the fact that our understanding of sexuality is retrograde It is infused with too much morality at the expense of understanding sexuality as a natural healthy experience. We make such a big deal about it and a lot of men and women end up with distorted and regressive understanding of it. They act it out by all manner of sexual abuse. We then punish these people, but no one‘s asking why it is occurring in the first place. It’s hard to believe we haven’t figured it out yet.
As a woman it's really unfortunate when you see guys not talk to woman or look at woman as people. There is a certain absence in the eyes and a palpable projection onto us when this happens. Aside from feeling grossed out by it because obviously it's not appealing, it's sad. I do my best to talk to men directed at their hearts and try to tap into their innocent human side. Like hey, snap out of it. Just connect with me as a human being not something to be gotten as if picking something out of grocery isle at your convenience and pleasure. Men across the board have this issue but guys who have it the most are the ones who have chosen not to develop regular interactions with the public, community. Instead on computer or phone excessively. Key is to get in nature, do things away from your phone. Write out (not type out) all the things you value in women as human beings that are honorable, respectful. Start catching your thoughts, when you look at a woman ask am I seeing here beauty with reverence and honor or am I seeing her as a pleasure object? Realize that when you don't make the choice to counter the unhealthy habits you're being a perpetrator not a protector. Women are supposed to feel safe around men, not guard themselves from men.
This has nothing to do with sexual videos. This is in response to the clear desires of women themselves.
Men have learned that women are not interested in men who want to know them as a person.
Men have learned that you must approach a woman with clear intentions of sexual desire and also show your sexual prowress within the first five minutes.
This is the only way that women will want to start a relationship with you. Those are the rules created by women even the ones who are college educated and CEOs. Men such as myself are simply following their desires
@@markfennell1167that's very sad to hear. I'm 63 years. Objectify people as just that.. objects only is a huge social problem. Need to all command self respect, or end up lost with nothing of loving nurturing permanence.
Porn is not women.
@@AnonymousUser-ss2qr it's all good if you're implying you're into guys. The point of my initial comment, if you missed it, was that porn changes how you think and what you think about i.e. How you view women as you walk by them just as one example..or men.
I'm not qualifying to you. Porn is not women. You're a girl you don't get it.@@CG-wr4no
Thanks for this great advice
To me,i think the best way to over come it is by marrying, otherwise its very difficult to overcome
Disagree however I do think that is a great way. I don't think it is the best though.
Well after a certain time, we grow up and get bored😂! And then we just ignore it. I believe not Porn but TH-cam is a complete form of addiction 😂, as I always get new and vibrant content.
Does hentai count ?
It does.
It's impossible to quit. I've been struggling with it for years. I am powerless. I wish there was a way to just flip a switch and not be addicted. It has a hold on me and I can't quit. Quitting porn is like trying to stop breathing. You can hold your breath and say you'll never breathe again, but the whole time your mind is just waiting to inhale. I'm a lost soul. 😔
It’s not impossible, I’ve seen it happen with my own eyes, with my own mind, look into this book “Like Dragons They Did Fight” never give up hope, you are more powerful than you know!
It’s not impossible, friend. You can do it. I also felt like this. I tried to stop watching porn for 2.5 years and I kept relapsing. Sometimes I would resist for days, sometimes for weeks but I would go back inevitability. And one day, I just stopped watching. It was, indeed, like flipping a switch. I got help from blocking apps and content like this video. And eventually it worked. Just don’t stop trying. The switch moment will eventually happen to you too. I promise
Ask yourself whether you are actively curious about different content that feeds your mental satisfaction like science, sports, history, music, and hundreds of other areas that stimulate the brain and make you passionate. If some of them create great excitement, you may try it, or start doing some sport and go to nature. and don't feel shame about previous hobbies. Because it's not your real personality anyway, especially if you like other hobbies. The industry tricked your mind to like it. Other hobbies create serotonin melatonin and other health hormones in the brain.
Tell someone you love and trust, give them access to your phones/laptop.
@@alaalfa8839 this is true with any addiction, you can’t just cut something out of your life, it will leave a hole that must be filled.
Praise scientics fighting sins of flesh, the world and the devil!
Porn is better than watching TV "programing" or so called "news". Like all things in life, moderation is the key... Be well...
I dont know bro, I think the way people raised and taught to basic human norms is more key in detecting acceptable and unacceptable behaviour, for example sexual aggression.
A kid with well adjusted parents wont deem rape or agression towards women an acceptable thing wether he watches porn or not. Well he wont even watch those kind of porn either because he will be able to recognise that it's wrong.
Gosh I hope so. My sons say they love wholesome family experiences we have and I pray that is enough to help them make healthy decisions for themselves in this life x
My friends said porn is like anime or cartoon, in anime you can shoot fireball, flying, fall from 30th floor and still alive, but surely you don't want to try it in real life right
I understand what you’re trying to say, but it’s simply not true. Your mind on porn is not anything like your mind in real life, this is the whole reason why you feel so bad after watching it. You know it’s unhealthy and horrible, but the porn mind doesn’t care, it’s selfish and it’s only aim is to “get off” the way that’s most exciting for it. It doesn’t care how long it will take to recover or the damage it’s done.
Exactly! You're very right. It's all about background.
Right
Is it only me who thinks its difficult to talk to females knowing you have a porn addiction like I feel uncomfortable around them and shy and can't make eye contact without feeling uncomfortable ligit I truly think porn has effected my way of looking at females.
I think porn addiction in any way, increase the habit of substance use, is this right or wrong ?
Any studies to show it ?
What if no one lives you no matter how you try to please them?
Thank you so much a diverse approach to this important issue. Your podcast is wonderful, but I love the addition of this brief video employing the voices of experts. Great job! Your work is absolutely vital! Keep it up!
I’m not going to ever watch porn again 😮 I don’t usually watch pornography anyway but I would be a liar if I said I never watch pornography. I’m a Christian JW and I watch pornography maybe once a month on my Oculus virtual reality headset because it’s more realistic but now I’m never watching pornography again. It’s a major sin and I always pray for forgiveness afterwards because I feel bad for watching it. Well this is another reason to not watch it again!!!

Because of using porn since I was 11 years old, now at the age of 20, I have had it weaken my entire body. I have a lover and they are very hurt when they know that I am weakened by watching porn and having sex. too much semen, I even tried to commit suicide twice when I was always facing depression and insomnia for the past 3 years and still have no way to improve it... You guys look at me, look again me_don't let porn and masturbation ruin your life...like me... Thank you for the video program for bringing a useful experience to those who are addicted to this toxic thing - new age cocaine.
Why then the Internet providers are still allowing free porn websites?
Great video. I'm confused by "subjefication" @ 2:13. DYM "subjectification," "objectification," or "subjugation"?
Keep fighting the good fight
I assume they meant something along the lines of objectification. that would make the most sense to me anyways 🤷♀️
And this has made young ladies want to turn normal men into porn actors,, they tell u are poor in bed coz she's comparing u with what she watches
So thankful for these professionals and this channel. I always knew something was wrong with porn
Did you overcome watching pornography or still watching??
Like the idea of the video but it's too complicated to understand a single thing well next time make a video for people who don't understand the complex biology terms and for teens
I didn't watch the video but they probably are talking about how you rewire the brain. That just means something becomes a habit. Not only that but also porn is an emotional habit which makes it stronger than normal ones. My guess is they don't talk about how to rewire the brain to get unaddicted. If you really wanna quit stop watching these kind of videos. They just keep you focused in the wrong direction. These videos are rewiring you to think a certain way about porn but that's not the solution. Porn isn't the problem. It's us who are the problem. This video is great for someone who has never watched porn because it rewires them to stay away from it but this isn't going to help the people who already have watched porn many times. Same with cigarette users. Although influence and environment can rewire one to be susceptible to doing cigarettes, alcohol, drugs etc. This is why the ghetto is the way it is. People passing down bad habits to the next generation over and over. So if you are struggling with porn you're wasting your time with these videos. I'm not implying it's too late.
What about AI porn or cartoon porn that doesnt involve real people?
Even worse😂
@@zza9215 lol 😆
if it can still include violence and change peoples brains, it’s still not good
lol, It doesn't matter whether it involves real people or not, long-term porn use will fuck up your brain so baldy you'll become like a zombie. Stay away from pornography before its too late
It's even more abstract so your conscious self has it even easier to justify it.
Can some one explain what is your performance in work, school or anything? Will tou be ablw to think clearly and solve problems?
reminder that theres no evidence for the so-called harmful effects of porn.
?????
@@basil9633 Theres literally no scientific evidence. literally none.
People just dont like porn/blame porn for their problems because it seems bad/evil

What about live cam

I was exposed to it at 7 and it's crazy that I still remember my first thoughts - "What's the point of this and why do they film it"
I dont know why but hearing "violence towards women during dating mishaps" makes me laugh, it's a funny way to describe such a horrible thing.
Something scary is the rise in pro-rape porn, where the girl is shown to be demanding rough, violent sex.
And yet the statistical rates of violence and sexual violence continue to drop year by year.
I'm afraid the actual data doesn't support the conclusions you wish to draw.
@@Eisenbison firstly; the conclusion I "wish to draw" is that pro-rape porn is increasing. Secondly, migrant rapes are increasing in Sweden, Germany and a few other Scandinavian countries. I can find the stats if you want.
If I show them, what do I get?
@@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805 Given that those same people have also been responsible for an increase in non-sexual crime, I honestly can't see how you can blame porn for that 🤣
@@Eisenbison It can explain the sex-crime increase, Im sure the anti-social conditioning and brain deteriorating effects of porn contributed and/or compounded the violent tendencies.
(right off the top of my head, in 2016 i migrant walked into a families house with a boner and said I want to f*ck to the mother and daughter, the father came downstairs, called him a slur and threw him out. the dad got charged for using a slur and the migrant got a slap on the wrist. only a r-tard who has seen too much porn would think thats an acceptable thing to do.)
I want to love and feel more. I lost my wonderful girlfriend because of my numbness, I got hurt so bad and my self esteem got lowered so far. For me to go through that and still watch porn, I'd have to be incredibly stupid. Never again. I'm handling this addiction.
