When asked where pornography addiction comes from, many of us are tempted to say “sex cravings”, lust, dopamine, or “boys will be boys.” These all play a part, but I feel that none of them get to the core of the issue.

I’ve spent 12 years coming to understand addiction by living my own recovery. I’ve dug deep, seeking for the true roots. I didn't want to just quit porn addiction, but to lose my desire for it entirely.

After living addiction recovery, and studying it in both ancient and modern wisdom, I created The Addiction/Fear Cycle.

This Cycle outlines not only the cause of porn addiction but all addiction. It deals with the fundamental reasons we crave and seek out worldly attachments.
