Worth listening to “Sexual Intelligence: More Science stuff” episodes – to recognise that there are consequence for Sex, Porn, Love Addiction patterns of behaviours. Watch out for the psychosexual problems in the individual and couple’s sexual relationship.
Sex, Porn, Love Addiction gets passed on to your next generation and tends to have a co-addiction (twin addiction) waiting in the wings to take its place. The brain can be re-wired. You can recover from sex, porn, love addiction – but there are no quick fixes!
Whichever addiction you are caught up in (whether Alcohol, smoking, eating, sex, porn, seeking out connection with love, drugs, gambling or gaming), the craving to use are not under direct conscious control. The memory of the positive-after-effect-feelings, can be accessed (afterwards), but are not generally influenced (ie take any interest) in cognitive (thinking/thoughts) attempts to bolster willpower to effect change/cessation/sobriety.
There may be a high level of sincere motivation to stop, but later on, the physiology demand for its chemical fix, situational triggers and disturbing/upsetting feelings, causes a PART of the personality to sabotage; not care about the demands of the other PARTS of the personality. I see, I desire, I want, so I take - kicks in – where “Immediate gratification" rules again.
