    Is it just me, or do some people have the feeling that porn may have changed their personality, due to the changes in their brain from conditioning??

    Absolutely. Addiction to Porn had given me very low self-esteem that I didn’t even had the confidence to talk to girls that I liked. Also, when I was addicted to porn I was very easy to lose my temper. My relationship with my parents had gone terrible. Last but not least, I felt like I had become less energetic. In a beautiful sunny day I would rather stay in my room than going outside. Now I’ve started my new life and I’m feeling so different. I’m so calm, positive and motivated just as before I didn’t have Porn addiction. So I promised myself not to go back again.

    I definitely saw my sexual interests twist and warp, but I don't think my personality changed much. Just my experience though

    I don't know if our personality changes that much during our lifetime. I think aspects of it can become more diminished or pronounced depending on the circumstances. When I'm in the throws of looking at P regularly I become quite anxious. My interactions with people can become strained. I tend to doubt myself a lot, and I often stutter in conversations. I've always tended towards this, but it becomes a whole lot more when I'm using P everyday. Take it away and I'm a lot more confident, and brighter and on the front foot in my dealings with others. But personality is a very deep subject to discuss with so many aspects that are debatable, so my account could be different from yours or someone elses.
