    I got off instagram for that reason. Instagram is HIGHLY triggering.

    In my opinion, the best thing is to avoid P subs. I found Instagram more triggering than P because of how common the app has become day to day in society. Best thing to do is delete the app, because if you are seeking women or models, it's going to activate the same dopamine response you get from porn. Your brain will see P and Insta almost the same because your intention is to still look at something, even if it not sexual. With Instagram, heck I would even get my fix from women dressed in "modest" clothing (e.g covered Chechen/Russian Muslim Instagram influencers) because they would still promote, in some ways, a dopamine response from the clothing, shoes, makeup they were wearing. Cutting back on following these models is not enough, as the Instagram search suggestions will still come back. You need to delete the app or atleast replace it with another past time. At the end of the day, it all works on dopamine.

    me too, I am also still tempted by the photo model on Instagram. I thought about deleting Instagram but I still need Instagram for other things. My advice for you, unfollow an account model or an account that contains sexy content, or create a new Instagram account

    Social Media has the added poison of being at least partially concerning women you know, which makes it extra dangerous to me. The added layer of voyeurism makes it just as bad as real P even if the actual images aren't as hardcore.
