Deep dives

The Importance of Quitting Early

Delaying the decision to quit porn can make the habit more deeply ingrained, both neurologically and physiologically. Engaging in this behavior strengthens neural pathways, making it harder to break free from the habit over time. An analogy from 'The Little Prince' illustrates this, as small baobab seedlings can easily be uprooted, but if left unchecked, they grow into massive trees that are difficult to remove. Thus, addressing the issue early can prevent it from escalating and becoming almost impossible to change.
