Rebalancing the brain

If this phenomenon is underlying your symptoms, you need to restore the sensitivity of your reward system, weaken addiction pathways, and strengthen executive control. We call this process "rebooting." The best way to reboot is to give your brain a rest from all intense artificial sexual stimulation— including porn, fantasizing about porn, chat rooms, erotic stories, surfing for pictures—until it bounces back to normal responsiveness.

Those addicted to porn often find the rebooting process easier and faster when they drastically reduce or eliminate masturbation. This abstinence from masturbation & orgasm isn't a lifestyle - it's a temporary method for deepening recovery and reducing relapses into porn. Obviously, this process is initially very difficult. The brain can no longer rely on the artificially intense "fix" of dopamine (and other neurochemicals) associated with heavy porn use.

In addition to desensitization, porn use strengthened nerve connections linking the short-term relief of Internet porn with any other trigger your brain associates with porn (sensitization). Triggers such as being home alone, sexy images, or stress and anxiety, can activate your brain's porn rut. The only way to weaken these subconscious links is to stop using (reinforcing) that brain pathway, and seek your mood medicine elsewhere. Eliminating porn and porn fantasy leads to rewiring and eventual weakening of sensitized pathways and cravings.

The other half of the rewiring process involves strengthening your executive control, which resides in your frontal cortex (behind your forehead). Assessing risk, making long-range plans, and controlling impulses, are under the control of the frontal cortex. The term hypofrontality is often used when describing how addictions weaken and inhibit these self-control circuits. It takes time, and consistency, to return these circuits to full working order.

Remember: Your freedom lies in balancing your brain. Then you can choose whether you will take your porn-arousal pathway or some healthier pathway. Needless to say, rebooting doesn't guarantee you can safely use Internet porn in the future. The human brain remains vulnerable to a downward spiral from too much of any intense stimulus, and your brain has a strong porn pathway, which will always be easy to reactivate.

Many have stopped using porn and recovered their lives. So can you.

Great topic. I think this is the reason the world is so fucked up. The government and the media use porn to dumb down the masses and to numb them. That's why no one gives a shit anymore and that's how things have become so out of control.

I think its the ultimate brainwash experiment on the public.

hehehehe wellsaid

I can add - only one of the reasons.. : D but ye - you got that right (:

peace yo and a buuuuuuump

DEAR GOD will this piece of shit thread never die?

I don't watch porn and I dont masturbate for months now. It's my new lifestyle.

porn = LOSER If you use porn and don't see yourself as a loser that = DENIAL. Simple.
