To be more aware when I’m turning to porn and why. This way I can break the habit cycle loop of being aware of the triggers and respond differently. And make porn a healthier choice
I want to build healthy habits when it comes to dealing with stress. I feel like my default has been using porn as a distraction, but I want it to be a part of a more well-rounded and healthier version of me. I think this will take active steps on my part to identify negative habit patterns and eventually to choosing porn for the right reasons.
Ive used porn for all the negative reasons listed in this excersize. I truly didn’t realize how much of my knowledge was wrong that I had about porn and use. These excersizes have already helped life some shame and hate that i had that i was causing myself due to misinformation or assumptions I had made.
It’s reassuring to see my porn issues are as common as they are. It helps reassure me I’m not some weird nymphomaniac
I’d like to make porn something I do for pleasure rather than as a tool to change the way I feel.
