    What do you mean by "chaser"?
    I apologize if it's a common term that I don't know.

    Not for me. It's something I've got to be very conscious of. It's been my downfall on several occasions.

    I don’t think so. It’s been hardwired to our brain. Having a successful reboot just means that the neural pathway which gives you the chaser effect has been weakened, but if you go back to porn, it strengthens again just like how you consumed it when you were still an addict

    The good news is simply knowing the chaser effect is there allows you to prepare for it, recognize it for what it is, and take steps to avoid it.
