    Hi,
    I was searching on internet what were the negative effects of porn in our brain, so i propose to myself to stop watching porn so i can improve my daily basis, but then i thought, what if i just masturbate without porn, its that bad as well?. Could someone answer me this pls, i already search on internet but i dont get any succesful answer.

    Hi Wolfgang

    In my opinion, it depends on the person. I know that this answer is not very satisfying and you'd rather have a clear yes or no.

    I'd suggest you just try to cut out everything for 90 days and see how it goes. If you can't help but masturbate without porn so be it, as you said that's already going to help with improving your life.

    Be aware that there is a thing called the ,,chaser effect". Once you have an orgasm your brain is going to crave for another dopamine hit shortly after, making it more likely to relapse with porn.

    That's why most people suggest to go hard mode. Seems unlogical but having high streaks is actually easier on hard mode than on ,,soft" mode for most people.
