@@ZacharyCortex I identified my Relapse Triggers Now...its either Stress or boredom. And the only thing that Gives me a compareable dopamin rush is Training my Body. So i try to do that whenever i feel the urge. Wish me Luck. To a better 2024.
Porn definitely causes depression. Flooding your brain with dopamine from a super normal stimulus will always result in dopamine deficit....... this brings on depression.
@ZacharyCortex you're doing God's work lol. I was thinking about making a video about how important it is to get sober. Same thing kinda. Production quality is quite good.
Holy crap, we need more studies like this that also speaks of the effects of personality disorders on porn use other addiction as well as likelihood to be voilent to spouse.
Thanks for the comment! Agreed! I tried looking into this as well and would like to make a video on it but its started to make the video a bit too long and not directly related to neuroscience!
@@ZacharyCortex What about ADHD and all these disorders that have a lack of something in their brain? Does that not link to neuroscience? Their more likely to be maybe addicted to many things?
@@GuidetteExpert Funny you mention ADHD.......this is my next video I am currently writing the script for! there is very interesting research here I think it should be an interesting video!
Some clever points made, and good that you understand and explain the difference between correlation and causation. It's a bit like some people can eat lots of cakes and biscuits, not take much exercise, but stay slim and healthy, while others doing the same possibly would become obese and diabetic.
Thanks for the comment! Yeh the research scientifically true but as a robust study design its not the optimal. It is useful, but not the gold standard for scientific research design.
one thing I always wonder when it comes to the consumption of porn is just the mere definition of it. is pornography only hardcore pornography i.e. penetration? does softcore pornography in which you can see body parts but not the actual sexual act count as porn as well and does it have the same effect? much more interesting for me is the question if just masturbating to images of scantily clad or even fully clothed people is also porn? Lots of pictures that you can see without restrictriction on instagram or youtube have very attractive people but they are not doing porn in a narrow sense. Would masturbation or even just looking at stuff like that also count? I can really recommend you "Dr. Trish Leigh, P*rn Brain Rewire" on this topic. She classifies just looking at social media full of attractive people as pornography.
Thank you for the comment and for the recommendation I'll give it a read! I'm not sure what the answer to the question is in my opinion, but i'll read the book and do some research as it is a v interesting question. Soft p*rnorgraphy defo a thing - hard to know where the line is
@@ZacharyCortex Ah, she has a youtube channel. I can recommend it. It is actually the reason why I even found this channel. Hahahaha Another aspect that she said that I find very fascinating is that she said that porn is not here because of „horniness“ but rather to fight boredom, to get a dopamine rush etc. it is not that you have some objective level of „horniness“ that needs to be vented now. It is actually a behavioral pattern that is getting reinforced and is ultimately harmful for us. That really gave me a new pespective to see this topic. The implication of this is that it is not really a stress relieve but in reality just a mind numbing acivity.
Its about Time that Doctors view Porn as a serious Addiction allready took 13 years of my Life.
Thank you very much for the comment. 100% agreed

You're not wrong.
We're still many years out unfortunately. Probably a decade or more.

Thanks for the comment! Yeh i think the chances of someones mental health improving on stopping porn are almost a certainty
you sir are highly underrated, this channel will do well.
Thank you I really appreciate that! Working to try build it up 😅

How to heal our brains from porn addiction. Do a video please
Yeh great idea!! thanks for the request it is in the pipeline!
I thought you had at least 1000 times more subscriber ! This is a great content and you'll go far if you're consistant
Hahah thanks I really appreciate that! I'm working on it! :)
Porn has to be banned.
Not sure if im for completely banning it but people should definitely know the risks!
Excellent 👍
Many thanks

Why would you play the hub song if you know people come here to try to quit corn, apart from this was a great and insightful video
Thanks so much! really appreciate the comment! Yeh just thought it may make people laugh a bit haha
@@ZacharyCortexit’s like hearing alcohol being poured into a cup 🤣
How much time noramlly it takes on an average ...for a porn addicted brain to start rewiring and recover the damage effcet of it
Thanks for the question - the science suggests two months to fully return to normal......though strong strong benefits can be seen after 1 or 2 weeks
I red that waching tooo much porn can affect your speling but that obioussly rubish
Hahahahahahaha
keep us updated with the lastest research on porn and its effects

4.32 ''these studies are imperfect'' why you told this? i cant understand but the research was scientifically true.
Thanks for the comment! Yeh the research scientifically true but as a robust study design its not the optimal. It is useful, but not the gold standard for scientific research design.
That’s because it’s all a load bullshit.
this is more than porn, this is about consuming all media on a screen! we are all addicted to it
Yeh not gonna lie I completely agree with this 😅
one thing I always wonder when it comes to the consumption of porn is just the mere definition of it.
is pornography only hardcore pornography i.e. penetration? does softcore pornography in which you can see body parts but not the actual sexual act count as porn as well and does it have the same effect?
