    I read a post earlier where people were saying Gary Wilson is outdated?

    So is what Gary Wilson has said and has written on yourbrainonporn not considered to be 100% true anymore?

    I won't lie a part of me would be glad if porn addiction and sexual conditioning isn't as serious as what it suggests on yourbrainonporn.

    But somehow I think Gary Wilson and yourbrainonporn will mostly be correct?

    A big problem that I think is not spoken about enough is rewiring to real people. But I have read about rewiring to real people on yourbrainonporn before. But I feel like this isn't spoken about enough, and could actually be a big part of the problem.

    Desensitization is mentioned a lot. So this is when guys need more extreme weird porn content to get off, or need to keep clicking and looking at hundreds of different content to get off.

    But what about a guy who is extremely turned on at one image or video of a female? But then if he gets with a real female he has ed? I don't think this guy is so much desensitized, I think he is sexually conditioned to artificial sexual stimulation and not to real life sexual encounters.

    I think for a guy like this the main cure is actually getting with real women as much as possible, cuddling, kissing and getting intimate with real women. Sure maybe it will take a while before the guy is getting an erection good enough for sexual intercourse, but eventually it will happen.

    I believe the issue with a lot of the advice is just abstain from PMO as long as possible and you will recover. I honestly think the rewiring to real women is not spoken about enough.

    A lot of guys aren't attempting to get with real women because they don't believe they have fully recovered. Where as getting with real women is actually part of the recovery.

  2. Gary Wilson is the man! Your brain is trying to find an excuse to relapse. BEWARE!

    The rewiring process is indeed of utter importance (as far as I know Gary always preached the importance of this recovery phase).

    I'd say 6-11 months of complete abstinence first followed by dating, having sex with a real life partner, erotic massages etc. after that.

    Yourbrainonporn.com could only be outdated if somehow porn stopped being addictive, and it's still addictive, so anyone who says that needs to get their facts in order.

    I totally agree with this, Your brain does try to trick you to relapse with little 'harmless' steps that seem like they shouldn't hurt, until you've relapsed without even trying to... "Great job! you played yoself!" Honestly, I agree because I've been tricked by my brain into relapsing on many occaisions, and you gotta be selfconcious and aware of what you are getting yourself into.

    I haven't looked into yourbrainonporn.com, but it sounds like a good resource and I'll probably check it out sometime.

    Stay Strong.
