I spend a time making this. please try to focus, maybe it will help you on your point of view on this.
Have you ever stopped to wonder why it’s so hard to get out of this porn addiction? We start watching pornography very early, in a very critical period for our brain, when we are developing and creating brain connections that in the future will be marked in our identity.
I’m reading a book called "The Brain That Changes Itself". The book itself is not about addictions, but how brain plasticity exists and affects our life, and one great meaning of this is that our brain is constantly changing, and that it is possible to change himself in our adulthood. When we’re young and we don’t have sexual experiences, we start watching pornography, it’s shaped in our brain like it would be a real sexual experience, because it’s the only exposure we have about sex.
The fact is that it causes a huge problem in our sex map in our brain, as well as several posts here on this forum, many people telling their sexual experiences, and how they got frustrated realizing that it’s not the same thing as pornography. But it’s not their fault, our brain tends to repeat the same behavior that was created in our head about what sex should be like.
When we begin our sexual life, all those years of pornography are unmasked and problems begin to come, such as the PIED(porn induced erectile dysfunction), the difficulty in maintaining erection during sex. This is a dynamic phenomenon that perfectly illustrates the progress of an acquired taste, such as hardcore pornography, sadomasochistic themes of forced sex, ejaculation in the face of women and furious anal sex. Pornography influences young people, in the process of transforming their sexual preferences and desires. Adult pornography can also be profound, and those who use it do not know to what extent their brains will be reshaped by it.
Pornography viewers, they develop new brain maps, based on the photos and videos they see, and our brain obeys a principle called "use or lose," when we develop a map (habit), we look forward to keeping it activated. These images remain in our imagination, even when we are not seeing pornography, one of the main reasons for the relapse. Our brain has a competitive plasticity, the content and the categories we consume occupy a space in our brain, these exciting new images and videos begin to have more preferences, because they begin to occupy the very space of our old tastes, That could be one of the reasons partners start to lose interest in their girlfriends.
Why is it better to stop using pornography? When we use a substance that gives us great pleasure as masturbation, we release a protein called Delta-Fosb, and increasingly this protein accumulates in our neurons, activating a genetic switch, which establishes which genes are "turned on" or "turned off", this switch causes changes that persist long after the addiction is suspended and this causes damage to our dopaminergic system, impacting on our quality of life, how we feel pleasure and motivation in activities in general, causing depression, procrastination, etc.. In addition to causing problems in how we feel pleasure and motivation in things in general, it negatively affects our sexual experience and performance, imagine you going to have sex and not being able to maintain an erection, or even taking too long to ejaculate(too much time, that’s not good as you think). Most of the reasons you probably already know, and for those of you who don’t, read it very carefully and look into it, if you know how bad it is to keep this up, you’ll have more motivation to leave, whenever there’s a sexual desire in your head, try to remember the negative effects and how you will feel after that, and also try to imagine how good you will feel after a long time of abstinence, I’m sure you’ve experienced how good it is to stay several days without it, how motivated and happy you can feel without it, happy new year.
