26. Why Some People Naturally Drift Away, And Others Don't: Inhibitors and Accelerators of Porn Addiction

Welcome to another episode of the Unhooked podcast, the place to learn how to break free from compulsive behaviors and bad habits, so that you can create the life you want.

In this episode, I will be exploring why some people are able to easily drift away from porn addiction while others struggle with it. We will be discussing the eight factors that contribute to a person's attachment or detachment to porn. These factors include four accelerating factors that increase a person's interest in porn, such as associating porn with pleasure, easy access, using porn to medicate distress, and having difficulty being intimate in relationships. On the other hand, there are four inhibiting factors that cool or diminish a person's passion for porn, such as personally disliking porn, limited contact with porn, feeling sexually secure and satisfied, and wanting emotional intimacy. By understanding which of these factors are present in our lives, we can more naturally drift away from porn addiction.

I hope this episode helps you make massive progress on your goals and dreams in 2023 and beyond. If you found this episode helpful, please let me know by leaving a review! I would love to hear from you.
