Episode notes
Brain's Reward System
- Pornography and sexual addiction condition the brain to seek instant gratification.
- This creates a reward-punishment cycle, strengthening neural pathways associated with these behaviors.
Pornography's Distorted Reality
- Pornography distorts perceptions of sex, focusing on male pleasure and often depicting violence against women.
- This can lead to unrealistic expectations, shame, and devaluing of women in real-life relationships.
Challenging Addictions
- Acknowledge that sex and food addictions are challenging because they are tied to survival needs.
- Recognize that these needs must be met in healthy ways, not through destructive behaviors.
