5.2 Problems using willpower
Reading Time: 2.5 minutes
Users quitting using the willpower method blame their own lack of willpower and ruin their peace and happiness. Itβs one thing to fail in self-discipline and another to self-loathe. After all, thereβs no law that requires you to be hard all the time before sex, properly aroused and able to satisfy your partner. Weβre working on an addiction, not a habit and at no point do you argue with yourself to stop a habit like golfing, but to do the same with ππππ addiction is normalised β why?
Constant exposure to a supernormal stimulus rewires your brain, so building a resistance to this brainwashing is critical, as if buying a car from a second hand car dealer β nodding politely but not believing a word the man is saying. So donβt believe that you must have as much sex as you can, all of it being exceptionally good, using ππππ in its absence.
Donβt play the safe ππππ game either; your little monster invented that game to lure you. Is amateur ππππ certified by some authority? π―πππ sites gather data from their users and use it to cater to their needs, and if they see an uptick in a certain category theyβll focus on it and get content out ASAP. Donβt be fooled by educational intent or βsafeβ female-marketed clips. Start asking yourself: βWhy am I doing it? Do I really need to?β
No, of course you donβt!
Most users swear that they only watch static and soft ππππ and therefore are fine, when in actuality theyβre straining at the leash, fighting with their willpower to resist temptations. If done too often and for too long, this depletes their willpower considerably and they begin failing in other life projects where willpower is of great value, like exercise, dieting, etc. Failure in these areas makes them feel miserable and guilty, cascading into using pornography again. If this isnβt done, theyβll vent their anger and depression onto loved ones.
Once you become addicted to internet ππππ, the brainwashing is increased. Your subconscious mind knows the little monster has to be fed, blocking everything else. Itβs fear that keeps people from quitting, fear of that empty, insecure feeling they get when they stop flooding their brains with dopamine. Just because youβre unaware of it doesnβt mean itβs not there. You donβt have to understand it any more than a cat needs to understand where the hot water pipes are: the cat just knows that if it sits in a certain spot it feels warm.
