In this episode, we explore some of the most common root causes of a porn habit. In part 1, we will uncover 5 root causes that tend to work synergistically to draw men into the struggle with porn:
- The nature of habit and the effects of porn on the Brain
- Curiosity and imagination
- Lack of vision, motivation, and purpose. Feelings of futility.
- Hypersexualized Society (sex as a rite of passage, status, social significance)
- Negative Emotions - Fear, Anxiety, depression (and our desire to avoid them)
Understanding these underlying causes is a big first step to finding more freedom and self-control. Knowledge is power, and the revealing comes before the healing.
Stay tuned for the sequel to this episode, root causes part 2, where we will cover 5 more common root causes of unwanted behaviors related to pornography.
