How To Quit PORNOGRAPHY ADDICTION TEST In 5 Days
Pornography Addiction test | Tips & Tricks
This is an addiction test if you say
yes to three or more of these questions then
you have an addiction at least
according to the American Psychiatric Association
I want to admit that this is
slightly abridged I had to take some things out
and the reality is it's used for substance
abuse not for porn addiction
if you say yes to two or less then
you can just stop the video and click onto
your favorite site let's go over
each one tolerance that's a strange word but
it means casual use increased orb escalated
over time in other words do
you watch it for more hours or have
you escalated to more shocking or more
extreme porn withdrawal it's not necessary
to have withdrawal symptoms if
you have an addiction but most users
on our forum
do experience some symptoms when
they quit it varies a lot
could be anxiety irritability
fatigue, depression those are the most common but
some also experience physical
symptoms, like cold and flu symptoms the headaches
the inability to sleep and brothers,
number three difficulty controlling your
use so do you use for a longer time
than, you'd like to I think that's pretty
clear self-explanatory, number four
do you understand the
negative consequences it does to
your, mood to your health porn use has been
associated with anxiety disorder and
sexual dysfunction
number five neglecting or postponing
activities it means are you doing porn
instead of life number six the
desire to cut down now most addicts say they can
quit anytime but they don't if
you've had unsuccessful attempts to cut down
that would be a yes to that question
and last one number seven spending
significant time or emotional energy
obtaining using concealing planning or
recovering from use have you ever concealed
your porn use I think everyone
can say yes to that here's an explanation
on behavioral addictions
it's common knowledge that dopamine raising
substances like alcohol
cocaine or meth can cause brain
changes that lead to addiction but what about
so-called behavioral addictions
these are such things as food gambling sex
video games shopping do they cause
brain changes that lead to addiction well of
course they do that's why they are
addictions recent research on gambling and especially food has shown brain
changes that mimic drug
addiction internet porn no one wants
to study it also there
hasn't been time for many study
because, it's a very recent phenomenon now you
tell me which is more stimulating
eating cheesecake or masturbating to porn it's
known that sex masturbation orgasm raised
dopamine levels far higher than
eating food which can you spend more
time doing in a day eating you're edging
to porn let's talk about natural reinforcers
natural reinforcer is a fancy word for a
non drug activity that causes
dopamine release that includes food sex gambling
video games now if you look at the
data about only 15 percent or less of drug
users this includes animals to ever become
addicted obviously genes are in play as our
childhood experiences if you look at
natural reinforces and of course food is
a powerful one we have a much higher
percentage of people who can become
addicted though it takes a lot
longer than it would with addictive drugs now
if you think about it few people
want to be fat yet in modern Western cultures
and punish people are now rats on
the other hand don't care if they're fat
when they eat western food almost
all of them over consume and become obese not
just fat this suggests two things
when it comes to natural reinforces our
reward circuitry evolved it evolved
to drive us toward food and sex and not
drugs that's why so many people can potentially
get addicted to food and
internet porn the other thing is
that highly stimulating versions of food and
sex can hook us even when we're not genetically
susceptible to substance
addictions here's the question when
can naturally
reinforcers become addictive number
one, when they are a highly stimulating
version of what our ancestors found really
irresistible number two when
something is available in limitless supply
number three it comes in lots of
varieties which is the novelty
factor number four we've been joined without
realizing its triggering brain
changes now I think modern food and internet
porn fall into all four categories
both can override our brains natural
satiation mechanisms the I'm done feeling
and that's because calories and
fertilization opportunities really
are jeans top priorities our limbic systems
top priority
