Five Stages Of Addiction
♦Early Exposure, Most Men who get addicted to porn start early,They see the stuff when they are young.
♦Addiction,Later come addictions,you keep coming back to porn,it becomes a regular part of you life,you’re hooked,you cant quit.
♦Escalation, After a while escalation begins, you starts to look for more and more graphic porn.you starts using porn that would have disgusted you when you started, Now it excites you.
♦Desensitization,Eventually you start to become numb.Even the most graphic.Degrading porn doesn’t excites you anymore.You became desperate to feel the same thrill again but can’t find it.
♦Acting Out Sexually,At this point many men make a dangerous jump and start acting out sexuality.They move from the paper and plastic images of porn to the real world.
Men who view pornography regularly have a higher tolerance for abnormal sexuality, including rape,sexual aggression and sexual promiscuity. Prolonged consumption of pornography by men produces stronger notions of women as commodities or a sex object.Pornography engenders greater sexual permissiveness,which in turn leads to a great risk out of wedlock births and STDS(Sexually transmitted diseases). These in turn lead to still more weakness and debilities.Child-Sex offenders are more likely to view pornography regularly or to be involved in its distribution.
Porn is like a drug on the surface,cocaine and porn don’t seem to have a lot in common but studies are showing that viewing pornography tricks your brain into releasing the same pleasure chemicals thats drug do.what’s more is your brain rewire itself because of this artificial stimulation.3 main area of the brain affected by any type of addictions(Drug,Alcohol,Gambling e.t.c,).

The danger of pornography The Danger of Pornography
These are the very same areas affected for porn addiction. Deep inside your brain There’s something called A Reward pathway.Reward Pathway’s job is to help keep you alive by doing exactly what its name promises rewards you or more specially rewards you when you do something that promotes life,such as eating food or achieving something you have worked hard for and the way it rewards you is by releasing chemicals in your brain mainly one called Dopamine,But also other like oxytocin. Normally, these chemicals are really handy.They help us feel pleasure and to bond with other people.And they motivate us to come back to important activities that make us happy.The problem is, the reward pathway can be hijacked.The way substance like cocaine opioids make user feel high is by triggering the reward pathway to release high levels of Dopamine without making the user do any of the work to earn it.Want to guess what else does that?Porn. The more a drug user hits up or a porn user looks at porn. The more those pathway get wired into the brain,making it easier and easier for a person to turn back to using,whether they want to do or not.Over time,the constant overload of chemical causes other brain changes as well. Just like a junkie will eventually require more and more of a drug to get a buzz or even just feel normal. Porn users can quickly build up a tolerance as their brains adapt to the high levels of Dopamine,that porn releases.In other words,Even though porn is still releasing Dopamine into the brain. The user can’t feel its effects as much. That’s because the brain is trying to protect itself from the overload of dopamine by getting rid of some of its chemical receptors, which act like tiny catcher’s Mitts that receive the Dopamine released. With fewer receptors, The brain thinks less Dopamine is there and the user doen’t feel as strong as a reaction.As a result,many porn users have to find more porn, Find it more often, or find a more extreme version or all three to generate even more dopamine to feel excited. And once the porn user becomes accustomed to a brain pulsing with these chemicals, Trying to cut back the habit can lead to withdrawal symptoms, Just like with drugs.
Porn changes the brain just like other addictive substance,Porn floods the brain with Dopamine, That rush of brain chemicals happening over and over again rewires the brain pathway ultimately changing the make up of the viewers brain.This can result in an increased appetite for porn.Watching porn lays down new Neoro-pathways in you brain.The more you use, The stronger the Neoro connections and the more difficult it is to stop.That doesn’t mean you can’t stop. You can rebuild those pathways by avoiding pornography and seeking health alternatives
Porn is addictive it wasn’t very long ago that doctors and researchers believed that in order for something to be addictive, it had to involve an outside substance that you physically put into your body like cigarettes,alcohol and drugs.Porn can be addictive because of the level of the neoro chemical released into the reward pathway.A tolerance can be built to porn and you end up needing more of it more extreme forms.
Porn Affects Your Behaviour
Many porn users find themselves getting abused by things that used to disgust them or that go against what they think is morally right.And once they start watching extreme and dangerous sex acts. These porn users are being taught that those behaviour are more normal and common than they actually.
Compulsive Porn Users
Craved upon(Greater Wanting), But dis not have higher sexual desire(Liking) than controls. This finding aligns perfectly with the current model of addiction, and refuted the theory that higher sexual desire causes compulsive porn use.
Drug addict are thought to be driven to seek their drug because they want-Rather than enjoy it. This abnormal process is known as incentive motivation. This is a Hallmark of addiction disoreders.
This is just a dip in the ocean from the devastating effects of porn
