Behavioral addictions are stigmatized because

0:02

they feel like more of a

0:04

choice because there's no

0:07

substance changing your brain. However,

0:09

process addictions or behavioral addictions

0:12

like porn do actually

0:14

change the brain in similar ways.

0:17

In this episode, I'll explain why

0:19

porn is so addicting, brain

0:21

changes that happen from porn,

0:23

and how porn influences us

0:26

to objectify women and see

0:28

them as sex objects. Porn

0:31

has another layer of addictiveness

0:33

beyond brain changes. It causes

0:35

novelty seeking. This

0:38

destroys relationships and I will

0:40

explain more about why porn

0:42

promotes novelty seeking, being unable

0:44

to enjoy regular sex, and

0:47

warning signs to look out for that you

0:49

or a loved one are addicted to porn.

0:51

it's been amazing it has not been

3:44

back to the SoberPower podcast.

3:46

I'm your host Jill and

3:48

I want to start this

3:50

episode with so many disclaimers.

3:54

I have watched porn but

3:56

I have never struggled with

3:58

porn addiction. So I'm... I'm

4:00

approaching this episode with

4:02

more curiosity then personal

4:04

experience. Some of you have brothers

4:06

top. Add up to me more and more

4:09

lately so I wanted to learn more about

4:11

it. I will recommend some resources on the

4:13

show notes that you can check out to.

4:16

And I know that porn is a

4:18

very triggering topic for those who have

4:20

personal experience. so if you are triggered

4:22

by the topic then you may wanna

4:25

come back to set the sold at

4:27

another time. Last disclaimer: if you listen

4:29

to my show than you know I'm

4:32

very direct and I'm just going to

4:34

say all the words that are associated

4:36

with this topic. So it's all of

4:39

those sexual type of words. Make.

4:41

You feel uncomfortable Them please skip

4:43

this one. To. The first thing

4:45

that stood out to me about

4:47

porn addiction is what researchers call.

4:50

The triple A influence.

4:52

Meaning: accessibility, affordability,

4:55

and anonymity. You.

4:57

Can much porn for free

5:00

by yourself in your house.

5:02

Alcohol and drugs are expenses

5:04

and gambling is very expensive

5:06

behavioral. Addictions result in a

5:09

very similar problematic cycle. And

5:11

period control which involves creating

5:14

and unsuccessful attempt to reduce

5:16

or stop and behavior giving

5:18

up activities that you used

5:20

to enjoy and neglecting other

5:22

areas of your life and

5:24

risky use which involves persisting

5:26

with the behavior. even though you

5:28

know it's harmful for Yale. Eventually

5:30

porn dominates your life.

5:32

And you hate it. But. You. Can't stop

5:35

doing it. In my opinion, the

5:37

number one sign. Struggling

5:39

with anything is attempting to

5:41

cut their first dance and

5:43

been unable to saw get.

5:45

Some were signs of porn addiction

5:48

later. Compulsive. Sexual behavior

5:50

is thought to affect. About.

5:53

Three to six percent

5:55

of the population and

5:57

it involves excessive masturbation

5:59

cyber. Strip

6:03

club results are lots of

6:05

sex with consenting adults, the

6:08

ease of access with the

6:10

internet as coast or rise

6:12

and behavioral addiction because you

6:14

can easily shop, gamble, bounce

6:16

board, engage in fibers, box

6:18

and watch porn one every

6:21

once in a D C

6:23

tool for I discussed things

6:25

that make up for developing

6:27

an addiction: an opportunity for

6:29

what is normalized on your.

6:31

Circle for Bitcoins. Another.

6:34

Factor to as privacy we love

6:36

to isolate when were addicted to

6:39

something. And behavioral addictions

6:41

provide a lot of privacy.

6:43

Behavioral and actions are difficult

6:46

in a similar away as

6:48

alcohol is because it's interface

6:50

all the time. Sexuality portal,

6:53

gambling, sports betting and alcohol

6:55

are all around interface. Sometimes

6:58

on Instagram I even have

7:00

fake sex pages. Liking my

7:02

story is to try to

7:05

get my attention. To.

7:07

That I go to their page

7:09

and to whatever Benoit is. And

7:11

one tactic of only fans pages

7:13

is to be present on dating

7:15

apps to funnel people to their

7:17

only fans. A cure for you

7:19

don't have to be directly searching

7:21

for other stuff and I can

7:23

imagine that that's very triggering for

7:25

people that are trying to be

7:27

silver from porn. Porn. Use

7:29

for young man can impact

7:31

sexual development especially if they

7:34

start. Watching porn before they have

7:36

had sex for the first time. And

7:38

Li Lu sexual desire

7:41

regularly. Watching porn and

7:43

electoral defeat, she escaped

7:45

genetically and young men

7:47

recently interviewed for a

7:49

couple. Decades ago, a two

7:51

thousand and seventeen study surveyed

7:53

twenty thousand people and phone.

7:56

At one point Two percent

7:58

of lemon consider themselves. The

8:00

Four. Percent of men that. Studies.

8:05

Have found similar results for sex addiction

8:07

as well. And according to a

8:09

few steady for doctor her. Problem

8:11

of harmful behavior or poor

8:14

8:16

Philo. To. The

8:19

locals who could not

8:21

use negative emotions are.

8:23

Prone to sexual board

8:25

and novelty. Seeking. Based.

8:28

On what I've learned about

8:30

porn for this episode: Novelty

8:32

Seeking. Seems to be the most

8:34

destructive part of this and or speak.

8:37

On that more later in this episode.

8:39

The consequences of porn

8:41

addiction for both men

8:43

and women include sexual

8:45

satisfaction. And dysfunction been

8:47

there are critical of your

8:50

own body and your partner's

8:52

booty. Increase Performing Cvd. My

8:55

shoes. She. Indeed,

8:57

And people. In

9:01

Haiti and depression. Problematic.

9:05

Alcohol use, drinking too much

9:07

coffee, and problematic video game

9:09

years. Although Korea is not

9:11

a substance at an Accent

9:14

Brain's reward system in similar

9:16

ways as alcohol and drug.

9:18

Still, like I explained in

9:21

episode one, seventy alcohol releases

9:23

way more Dell plane than

9:25

any natural reward does, And

9:28

porn is the same. You

9:30

can get a huge Delta

9:32

mean head very quickly. And

9:35

efficiently repeated over and over

9:37

a reward system. Gets

9:41

desensitized to regular stuff and

9:43

only big hits of guilt mean

9:45

register for you is. May. Fly

9:47

feel very dull and worthless when

9:49

we stop the behavior or the

9:52

substance. Plus, there's only so much

9:54

alcohol that we can drink before

9:56

we throw off, pass out, or

9:59

have to. In a hospital

10:01

for alcohol poisoning. Watching. Porn

10:03

doesn't have the same limits, so

10:05

you can keep maintaining that high

10:07

for a very long time. You

10:09

may be thinking, well, there's only

10:11

so many times that you can

10:13

have an orgasm from porn. and

10:16

sure, That's. True but people

10:18

can edge where they masturbate

10:20

with out climax a for

10:22

many. Hours so they

10:25

can extend that initial. Good

10:27

part. From. Really long

10:29

time. It's important to

10:31

remember that Go for Mean

10:33

isn't about pleasure even though

10:35

it gets labeled as a

10:37

pleasure molecule. Total Mean is

10:40

about motivation seeking, behavior and

10:42

anticipation of a reward It

10:44

keeps us have because it

10:46

keeps signaling us that this

10:48

behavior is associated with the

10:50

most critical reward of our

10:52

lives and because don't mean

10:54

as involved in the anticipation

10:56

of a reward. Why would

10:59

you stop doing the behavior.

11:01

If you know a reward is coming

11:03

soon, you can think of it like

11:05

scrolling a real or tic toc and

11:07

you've wasted twenty or thirty minutes scrolling

11:09

bad ones, but you keep thinking just

11:11

a couple more and then I'll get

11:13

a really good one. And that

11:15

anticipation keeps you scrolling. Twenty.

11:18

Or thirty minutes more of bad.

11:20

Reels. Studies. Have found

11:23

that there are clear differences

11:25

in brain activity is between

11:27

people who have compulsive sexual

11:29

behaviors vs. controls and their

11:31

brains are similar to people

11:33

that are addicted to drugs

11:35

and alcohol. Just like I

11:37

said, Reboot

11:40

Do believe Healthy countries

11:42

Murray. People

11:45

with. Experience

11:48

Want to. When they're

11:50

shown sexual images, healthy controls

11:52

have a general sexual desire.

11:55

People with addiction have a

11:57

desire for that very specific.

12:00

You. Can they also have

12:02

a diminished desire for sex with

12:05

a partner, but not for masturbation

12:07

to porn? And. As always,

12:09

I'll put the recommended episodes in the

12:11

show notes for you know, don't the

12:13

mean in the brain makes us feel

12:16

terrible? And it She. So

12:18

we seek external things to fix

12:20

the problem quickly. I discuss this

12:22

episode with the men's only group

12:24

in my community. They get similar.

12:26

Opinions so that I do. Too

12:28

many blind spots with the. Sushi.

12:32

Only. One. of my neighbors

12:34

shirt. Something really life he

12:36

said. Hypothetically,

12:39

When you eat a good meal, you get.

12:41

Ten hits a Doberman and

12:43

then your brain will compensate

12:45

with. A. Negative can and you really

12:47

notice if you drink alcohol you get

12:50

five hundred. Has a dope lean so

12:52

then the brain compensates with a negative

12:54

five hundred. when you wake up some

12:56

over and miserable you can have a

12:59

breakfast beer to get a hundred hits

13:01

a Doberman back. But most of

13:03

us are resistant to drinking before. Work because

13:05

we know that's a whole nother

13:07

level of problem drinking. Or you

13:09

could watch them quit porn and

13:11

get five hundred has a dope

13:13

the mean and bowl about your

13:16

day with that temporary brain chemistry

13:18

boost. Sure, you'll have a come

13:20

down, but then you can just

13:22

drink after work to get a

13:24

boost again. Behavioral addictions and alcohol

13:26

go together really well because of

13:28

this example, but also because the

13:30

change in mental state from alcohol

13:32

or from other drugs makes it

13:34

easier to excuse. The Behaviors: Happy

13:36

people with good coping skills.

13:39

Don't usually watch for marathons so

13:41

it's not a stretch to. Think

13:43

that they would also use alcohol

13:45

or drugs to cope. And by

13:47

the way, this is a hypothetical

13:49

example. Normally was natural rewards. there's

13:51

a slow calm down, not a

13:54

compensation. But that's not really the

13:56

point where we know that doping

13:58

me an answer. survive. The in

14:00

a promote seeking behavior is to help

14:02

us stay alive and. Continue the

14:05

species. Opo is not

14:07

essential for survival. But it

14:09

tricks the brain that it is because of.

14:11

The amounted to open mean

14:13

it releases. Sex is essential

14:15

for our survival. Thou shall

14:17

saxon porn addiction, take advantage.

14:20

Of something that is truly essential.

14:22

For our survival and then make

14:24

it weird. That's not a scientific

14:27

term, but I think it's an

14:29

important distinction between substance addiction and

14:31

porn. People. To

14:37

cues. Agency

14:39

is one of my favorite

14:42

Age difference beer procedure. Explain

14:44

it in the show Notes: A

14:46

Pulse Nobody else is the tendency

14:48

for our attention and focus to

14:51

get stuck on addictive cues and

14:53

not be able to read director

14:55

attention. It's like when you go

14:57

somewhere and you can immediately find

14:59

all the alcohol in the room

15:01

or how you know exactly how

15:03

many drinks everyone has had and.

15:06

Mr. Smoother drinking. If. You

15:08

keep your attention off a que. Fazer

15:11

for the queue to. Make you

15:13

removed because cues release dope a

15:15

mean that lead to seeking. Behavior:

15:17

Ak cravings so if your

15:20

attention is continuously focused

15:22

on the queue. More.

15:24

And more and more adult leaders being. Released

15:27

in anticipation of reward.

15:29

People. A Saxon porn addiction

15:31

all cel experience attentional by

15:33

us when you're addicted to

15:35

alcohol. You. Just drink a

15:38

bunch of alcohol and that's it.

15:40

Is just alcohol. But when you're

15:43

addicted to porn, your brain gets

15:45

desensitized to these sexual cues after

15:47

repeated exposure, meaning your reward system

15:50

develops a tolerance and you release

15:52

less Del Blaine. Now.

15:55

You have to start chasing novelty to

15:57

get the hit. Some dope. I'm in

15:59

the. You need. To not

16:01

field goal and worth flesh was

16:04

poor and there's so much novelty

16:06

and excitement and this leads to

16:08

choosing this behavior over real sex

16:11

with a partner. When. You're

16:13

with someone for a while. There is no

16:15

more normal. Married. Couple

16:17

of can get stuck in the

16:19

same boring husband and wife said

16:21

routine which can cause a lack

16:24

of interest in sex for someone

16:26

who was addicted to novelty plus

16:28

poor can even involved. Things that

16:30

are real or sexual. Fantasies

16:32

that are not safe,

16:35

just reinforcing. The need for

16:37

novelty and as can keep people

16:39

searching on the internet for new. And

16:41

more Exciting and often weird

16:43

or things for hours and

16:46

hours. It's. Really important to

16:48

know to the women in porn

16:50

are. Paid actresses and

16:52

they're pretending. To like

16:54

a lot to keep you have.

16:57

It's hard for us to have

16:59

empathy for people with behavioral addictions

17:01

when we don't understand. We know

17:04

that alcohol and drugs changed the.

17:06

Brain and or mental state so

17:08

we can kind of makes sense

17:10

of it. But behavioral addiction. Feel

17:12

like they're more of a choice and

17:14

a moral failing? People. Who

17:16

struggle a Saxon poor and have changes

17:18

in the brain just like. Drinkers and

17:21

drug users do. They have

17:23

a decrease in productivity between

17:26

the prefrontal cortex with you

really busy street he. Is

17:38

involved in the anticipation. Of Award.

17:40

This is something that I explain

17:42

a my Anger Management class to.

17:45

The prefrontal cortex is designed

17:47

to put the brakes an

17:49

automatic self destructive behaviors, but

17:51

when the prefrontal cortex is

17:53

connected well to the rest

17:55

of the brain, a can't

17:57

send that message anymore. And.

17:59

The. The

18:02

brain just does what it wants to fight.

For good intentions World's people
