YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Sexual addiction isn't actually about sex at all. It's about self-soothing.

When you consume porn and masturbate, it sends a rush of dopamine through your brain, causing you to feel better than ever before. Eventually, you'll start to rely on that feeling whenever you feel sad or stressed.

While this feeling may feel good in the moment, in the long run, it's causing a significant amount of damage. Side effects from too much dopamine you get from the screen include:

- erectile dysfunction

- depression

- anxiety

- trouble focusing

- trouble sleeping

- lack of motivation

and much, much more.

In order to leave the screen behind, you need to develop healthy coping mechanisms again. Ones that will give your brain healthy levels of dopamine that it can thrive off of.
