It challenges the traditional advice that suggests reducing usage as a part of quitting, arguing that such approaches may be counterproductive. The chapter emphasizes questioning the effectiveness of conventional wisdom regarding quitting, especially if those methods haven't worked for you in the past.

The chapter suggests a disconnect between knowledge and behavioral change, leading to inaction despite awareness.
• 02:27 - 02:35: The YouTube, Twitch or Instagram User The chapter titled 'The YouTube, Twitch or Instagram User' challenges the notion that blocking access to pornography, which turns it into a 'forbidden fruit,' is an ineffective method to curb addiction.

Moreover, it highlights a universal parental concern about their children using pornography as a coping mechanism or for pleasure, underscoring the regret felt by users who wish they had never started. It concludes by stating that no one needs pornography to enjoy life or manage stress, indicating that life is fulfilling and manageable without such dependencies.
• 02:53 - 02:57: Avoid False Incentives The chapter "Avoid False Incentives" discusses the addictive nature of certain online behaviors and how users continue engaging with them despite understanding the consequences. It highlights that, while no one forces these habits, it's the user's decision to visit sites that may not be beneficial. People often hold on due to fear, specifically the fear of missing out or needing to confront the reality that addiction has taken root. The text suggests a hypothetical scenario where if there were an easy way to reset without addiction, only the younger, experimenting individuals would continue to struggle with quitting, implying that awareness and courage to face fears are essential steps in overcoming such dependencies.
• 02:59 - 03:07: The Easy Way to Stop The chapter titled 'The Easy Way to Stop' discusses the psychological barriers and irrational beliefs that make quitting pornography difficult.

• 03:09 - 03:17: The Withdrawal Period This chapter explores the irrational beliefs regarding sexual relationships and their potential consequences.

It discusses negative behaviors like being highly judgmental or forcing oneself into unwanted situations in pursuit of an idealized relationship.
• 03:22 - 03:24: Will It Be Harder for Me? This chapter explores the common fears and concerns individuals face when dealing with pornography addiction.

The chapter also touches on the fear of personality changes and the prevailing worry that the addiction might never fully be overcome, leading to life-long cravings.
• 03:26 - 03:32: Substitutes The chapter titled 'Substitutes' begins by addressing the struggles and fears associated with breaking free from pornography addiction, highlighting that conventional methods such as willpower often lead to misery and can reinforce the belief that quitting is impossible. It emphasizes that the feelings of apprehension and panic often associated with quitting are not alleviated by continued engagement with pornography, but are caused by it. The text acknowledges that individuals did not consciously choose to become trapped by pornography, but highlights that, like any trap, it is designed to keep its victims ensnared.
• 03:33 - 03:36: Should I Avoid Temptation Situations? This chapter discusses the strategies for resisting the temptation to view pornographic content. It warns about the addictive nature of pornography and how it's a trap that is designed to keep individuals hooked for life unless they take proactive steps to quit. The narrative stresses the importance of taking action to overcome this addiction before it causes significant harm to one's life. Although the method suggested isn't magical, it has been effective for the author and others in breaking free from the addiction.
• 03:37 - 03:41: The Moment of Revelation The chapter discusses the paradoxical challenge faced by addicts who want to quit. It presents the idea that while every addict desires to quit and can find it easy and enjoyable, fear acts as a barrier. The chapter emphasizes the importance of overcoming this fear. Despite reading helping alleviate fear, there could be moments where fear intensifies, potentially deterring individuals from completing the book. The chapter concludes with a mention of a woman's comment about finishing reading a presumably helpful book, 'Easy Peasy.'
• 03:46 - 03:49: The Final Visit In this chapter, the narrator reflects on their journey towards overcoming an addiction to pornography. Initially panicking halfway through a self-help book about five months ago, the narrator now feels transformed after just four days of a new resolve. They stress the importance of a decisive, affirmative decision to escape the 'Trap,' while encouraging readers with the assurance that there's nothing to lose in making this positive change.
• 04:03 - 04:07: Help Those on the Sinking Ship The chapter "Help Those on the Sinking Ship" provides an encouraging and supportive perspective on overcoming the use of pornography. It emphasizes that continuing to use porn is a personal choice, and there's no obligation to quit while engaging with the book. The narrative draws a parallel with the feeling of liberation experienced by Andy Dufresne in "Shawshank Redemption" when escaping prison. It conveys a hopeful message, suggesting that by the book's end, readers will feel similar liberation from the "porn trap" as many ex-users do.
• 04:08 - 04:25: Advice to Non-Users This chapter titled 'Advice to Non-Users' introduces the notion that quitting habits, such as consuming certain content, can be easy and enjoyable for anyone, with the right mindset. The text encourages readers to proceed with an open mind to understand the process better, ensuring the ease of quitting. The key takeaway is that by the conclusion of the book, readers will wonder why they had held onto such habits for so long, as the book provides a straightforward approach to break free from them.
• 04:29 - 04:31: The Instructions The chapter emphasizes the rigidity and dogmatic nature of the book's recommendations, specifically regarding not cutting down or using substitutes. The author recognizes that while some people might succeed using methods not prescribed in the book, their success is not due to those methods. An analogy is made by comparing it to making love standing on a hammock, which although possible, is not the easiest way. The chapter also hints at a 'lock' that can be opened using numbers found throughout the book, stressing the importance of following the order of the chapters sequentially.

• 33:00 - 33:30 feelings of wanting with actual pleasure produced by opioids more dopamine more opioids and more action without dopamine actions like eating don't feel pleasurable and are completed with high fat and Sugar Foods producing the highest chemical release dopamine is also released in response to novelty with a seemingly infinite amount of pornography available this floods the limbic system which is your reward circuit so the first time you see poor new act orgasming and triggering another

• 34:00 - 34:30 ride down the next time the limbic system is a self-correcting system to trim the number of dopamine and opioid receptors when frequent and daily flooding of the dopamine is detected unfortunately these receptors are also needed to keep us motivated to handle daily life stresses nominal amounts of dopamine produced by Natural Rewards simply don't compare to pornography and aren't as efficiently absorbed by the decreased receptors leading you to feel more stressed and irritated than normal this process is known as desensitization in this cycle
• 34:30 - 35:00 you've crossed the red line and triggered emotions like guilt disgust embarrassment anxiety and fear which in turn raise dopamine levels even higher and cause the brain to misinterpret these feelings as sexual arousable as time passes not only is the brain desensitize the previous Eclipse it's seen but also similar genres and shock level the lower motivation triggers feelings of lower satisfaction as a brain engage in constant rating pushing a defying Clips to satisfy the hunger so

• 35:30 - 36:00 withdrawal Banks many users have the illusion these pangs are the terrible trauma they suffer when trying or being forced to stop in fact they're primarily mental since the user is feeling deprived of their pleasure or prop section 4.1 the little monster the actual chemical withdrawal from pornography is so subtle that most users have lived and died without even realizing they were drug addicts many users have a fear of drugs yet that's exactly what they are drug addicts fortunately it's an easy drug to kick
• 36:00 - 36:30 but you first need to accept that you are indeed addicted withdrawal from pornography doesn't cause any physical pain and is merely an empty Restless feeling of something missing which is why many believe it's something to do with sexual desire prolonged this feeling becomes nervousness insecurity agitation low confidence and irritability it's like a hunger for poison within seconds of engaging in a session dopamine is supplied and the craving ends resulting in a feeling of fulfillment as you whiz down the water
• 36:30 - 37:00 slide in the early days withdrawal patterns in their subsequent relief are so slight or unaware of them when we become regular users we believe it's because we've come to enjoyment or gotten into the habit the truth being that we're already hooked but we don't realize it the little monster is already in our brains so every once in a while we take trips down the water slide to feed it all users begin seeking pornography for irrational reasons the only reason why anybody continues using pornography
• 37:00 - 37:30 whether they're casual or heavy user is to feed that little monster the whole conundrum is a series of cruel and confusing punishments but perhaps the most pathetic aspect is a sense of enjoyment a user gets from a session trying to get back to the sense of peace tranquility and confidence their body had before becoming hooked in the first place section 4.2 the annoying lore do you know that feeling when a neighbor's home alarm has been ringing all day or some other small minor persistent aggravation then the noise

• 38:00 - 38:30 our rational Minds don't understand it but they don't need to all we know is that we want pornography and when we masturbate the craving goes however the satisfaction is fleeting because in order to relieve the craving more and more pornography is required as soon as you orgasm the craving starts again and the trap continues to hold you it's a feedback loop unless you break it the pornographic trap is similar to wearing tight shoes just to obtain the pleasure of taking them off there are three primary reasons why users can't see it this way however
• 38:30 - 39:00 number one from birth we've been subjected to massive amounts of brainwashing telling us that internet pornography is simply another modern development that replaced the print version of porn this fallacy is packaged with the truth that masturbation isn't inherently naturally harmful so why shouldn't we believe them second because physical dopamine withdrawal involves no actual pain merely an empty insecure feeling Inseparable from hunger and normal stress this feeling manifests into a
• 39:00 - 39:30 pornographic session as those are the very times we tend to seek internet porn we tend to regard this feeling as normal and third the primary reason users fail to see internet pornography in its true light is due to it working back to front it's when you're not consuming that you suffered the empty feeling because the process of getting hooked is incredibly subtle and gradual in the early days the empty feeling is regarded as normal and so isn't blamed on the previous session the moment the browser is fired up and you begin your session you get an

• 41:00 - 41:30 just an empty insecure feeling recognized as hunger the process of satisfying our hunger is a very pleasant experience pornography appears to be almost identical but it's not like hunger there's no physical pain and the reward mechanisms behave in similar ways but it's this similarity to eating that tricks the user into believing there's a genuine pleasure or crutch in pornography although eating and pornography appear to be very similar in reality their exact opposites first you eat to survive and energize
• 41:30 - 42:00 your life whereas porn dims and cuts you down second food genuinely tastes good and eating can be a genuinely pleasant experience that we enjoy throughout our lives pornography involves self-sabotaging the happiness receptors and thus destroys your chances to cope and feel happy and finally eating doesn't create hunger and genuinely relieves hunger whereas the first porn session starts the craving for dopamine and each subsequent session
• 42:00 - 42:30 far from relieving it it ensures suffering for the rest of your life is eating a habit if you think so try breaking it completely to describe eating as habit will be like describing breathing as habit both are essential to survival it's true that people have the habit of satisfying their hunger at different times of varying types of food but eating itself isn't a habit and neither is pornography the only reason a user fires up their browser is trying to end the empty feelings that the previous session created at different times with

• 47:30 - 48:00 with your laptop some users find it alarming to realize that they're drug addicts and believe this will make it even more difficult to stop in fact this is good news for two important reasons first the reason why most continue using is because although we know the disadvantage is far away the advantages which don't even exist we believe there's something in pornography that we actually enjoy or that it acts like some sort of prop or under the illusion that after we stop there will be a void and that certain situations in our lives will never be quite the same in fact pornography not only provides nothing
• 48:00 - 48:30 but it actually subtracts and second although internet pornography is the most powerful trigger for novelty and sex-based dopamine flooding because of the speed you become hooked you're never badly hooked the actual withdrawal patterns are so mild that most users have lived and died without realizing they've suffered them why is it then the many users find it so difficult to stop going through months of torture and spending the rest of their lives pining for it at odd times the answer is the second reason brainwashing the neurotransmitter addiction the

• 80:30 - 81:00 you stumble across an article discussing this and find out it's not just happening to you many people all around the world are suffering from the same problem in fact the medical community has discovered that the ointment doesn't actually cure the sore and instead only takes it beneath the surface of the skin it's the ointment that caused the sore to grow so all you have to do to get rid of the sore is to stop using the ointment and it'll disappear in due course now after hearing this would you continue to use the ointment

• 82:00 - 82:30 the greatest gain being rid of that fear it's caused by your first session further strengthened and caused by each subsequent one some users are happy blinded by their cunning little monsters to go through this same nightmare putting up phony arguments to try and justify their stupidity but it's truly so nice to be free chapter 8 Saving Time usually when users try stopping the main reasons given are

• 84:30 - 85:00 peevishness surely that must worry you right now it's apparent at this point especially with younger users that they've never considered it a lifetime addiction occasionally they work out the time they waste a week and that's alarming enough very occasionally and only when they think of stopping they'll estimate what they spend in a year which is frightening but over a lifetime is unthinkable however because we're in an argument the confirmed user will impulsively say I can afford it it's only so much time a

• 85:30 - 86:00 point a confirmed user will say look I'm not really worried about the time aspect if you're thinking along those lines ask yourself why you aren't worried why in other aspects of your life will you go to Great Deals of trouble to save a few minutes here and there but spend thousands of them killing your happiness and hanging the expense every other decision you make in your life will be the result of an analytical process of weighing up advantages and disadvantages to arrive at a rational decision now it may very well be the wrong decision but at least it'll be the
• 86:00 - 86:30 result of a rational deduction whenever any user weighs up the pros and cons of using internet pornography the answer is a dozen times over stop using you're a mug therefore all users are using not because they want to or decide to but because they can't stop they have to use pornography and so brainwash themselves keeping their heads in the sand confirmed users should keep in mind that the situation will only get exponentially worse with more studies coming out and more people talking about the ill effects of Internet pornography
• 86:30 - 87:00 today it's non-medical people discussing the effects tomorrow it'll be on your doctor's list of diagnostic tests gone are the days where the user can hide down time behind work stress in their sex life your wife or husband is going to ask why you're on your laptop late at night the poor user already feeling wretched now wants the ground to open up and swallow them the strange thing is that though many of these users would pay good money for gym memberships and personal trainers to build muscles and look sculpted there are many people in
• 87:00 - 87:30 this group who will benefit from stopping a practice systematically destroying their brain's natural relaxation systems this is because they're still thinking with the brainwashed mind of the user wipe the sand out of your eyes for a moment internet pornography is a chain reaction and a chain for life and if you don't break that chain you'll remain a user for the rest of your life estimate how much time you think you'll spend on pornography for the remainder of your existence obviously the amount will vary from person to person but let's assume
• 87:30 - 88:00 it's a year and a half of work hours imagine if there were a check from the lottery for a year and a half of your salary lying on your carpet tomorrow you'd be dancing with delight so start dancing you're about to start receiving those benefits if you think this is a tricky way of seeing it you're still kidding yourself work out how much time you would have saved if you've never taken your first Peak right at the very start ly you'll be making the decision to use your final session not yet please remember the instructions remaining a non-user by not falling for the Trap
• 88:00 - 88:30 again all you have to do to remain a non-user is not using pornography and avoiding just one Peak remember if you do it'll cost you whatever your estimated salary gain will be if you're mentoring someone for their pornography addiction tell them they know someone who refused a job offer that pays their current annual salary and also gives them a full month's worth of paid time off when asked who that idiot is tell them you it's kind of rude but sometimes you need to get the point across in a less than
• 88:30 - 89:00 polite way chapter 9 health this is the area where the brainwashing is the greatest with users particularly the young and single who think they're aware of the health risks but aren't many kid themselves by saying they're prepared to accept the consequences if your internet router had a function that played an alarm tone with a warning when you hit a porn site saying up until now you've gotten away with it but if you stay another minute your head will explode would you have stayed if you're in doubt about the answer try walking up
• 89:00 - 89:30 to a cliff standing on the edge with your eyes closed and imagine having the choice of either quitting pornography or walking up blindfolded there's no doubt what your choice would be but by burying your head in the sand and hoping that you'll wake up one morning and magically not want to watch pornography anymore you accomplish nothing users cannot allow themselves to think of the health risks because if they do the addiction's illusory enjoyment goes this explains why shock treatments are so ineffective in the first stages of quitting it's only non-users bring
• 89:30 - 90:00 themselves to read about their destructive brain changes take this common conversation with users especially younger ones I say why do you want to stop and the user responds I read in a pickup artist's blog that it's good to stop for four days to amp myself up and so I respond aren't you worried about the health risks and the user says back no I could step under a bus tomorrow and so I say but would you deliberately step under a bus
• 90:00 - 90:30 and the user responds of course not and I say do you not bother to look left and right when you cross the road and the user says of course I do exactly they go through a lot of trouble not to step under a bus and even then the odds are thousands to one against it actually happening yet the user risks the near certainty of being crippled by their addiction and appears to be completely oblivious such is the power of the brainwashing internet pornography is a wolf in sheep's clothing isn't it
• 90:30 - 91:00 strange that if we felt there were the slightest fault in an airplane we wouldn't go up in it even though the risks are actually a million to one yeah we take more than one in four certainty with pornography and are apparently oblivious to it what does the user get out of this absolutely nothing another common myth is depression or peevishness many younger people aren't worried about their health because they don't suffer any of the depression or Melancholy the depression or stress isn't the disease though it's the
• 91:00 - 91:30 symptom younger people in general don't feel the irritability or depression created due to their body's natural ability to produce more dopamine as they age or their lives encounter serious setbacks that are already depleted resources are overworked and they'll experience full-blown symptoms when older users feel stressed depressed or irritated it's because Nature's Fail-Safe mechanisms are protecting the nervous system from excessive dopamine flooding through trimming receptors the user also develops other neurological changes to keep them in the Rut think of
• 91:30 - 92:00 it this way if you had a nice car and allowed it to rust without doing anything about it that would be pretty stupid it would quickly become an immovable heap of rust incapable of transporting you anywhere however it wouldn't be the end of the world because it's a car it's only a question of money but your body is the vehicle that carries you through life we all say that our health is our greatest asset ask any sick millionaire most of us can look back on an illness or accident in our lives where we prayed to
• 92:00 - 92:30 get better by being a porn user you're not only letting the rust get in and doing nothing about it you're systematically destroying the one vehicle used to go through your entire life wise up you don't have to do this remember this is doing absolutely nothing for you just for a moment take your head out of the sand and ask yourself that if you knew with certainty that your next session would start a process that would make you utterly unresponsive to someone you deeply love would you continue using
• 92:30 - 93:00 speaking to the people this happens to they certainly didn't expect it would happen to them either and the worst thing isn't the disease itself but the knowledge they've brought it upon themselves try to imagine how people who've hit the button feel for them the brainwashing has ended they spend the remainder of their lives thinking why did I kid myself for so long that I needed to masturbate to internet pornography if only I had the chance to go back stop getting yourself you have that chance it's a chain reaction if you

• 93:30 - 94:00 doesn't want to know forums and Mentor groups are a waste of time because porn puts the blinders on if inadvertently read the first thing the user does is open their favorite tube site porn users tend to think of the happiness stress and sex Hazard as a hit and miss Affair like stepping on a landmine but get it into your head it's already happening every single time you open your porn site you're triggering dopamine flooding and opioids getting to work the neural water slides are greased
• 94:00 - 94:30 and the ride takes you smoothly through the next steps you're bringing having already given in through the script the nervous system is now flooded by dopamine and since it's the umpteenth time dopamine receptors close up and the little monster uses this slight dip in pleasure compared to the last time to drive you further over the red line to more shocking pornography or behavior in order to release more dopamine more novelty more dopamine and a little monster tells you to keep going so many pictures and videos in a single session
• 94:30 - 95:00 triggers a super normal stimulus injecting more chemicals into the brain and driving you to continue the entire time your receptors are receiving information to shut down in response to the flooding orgasm only increases its effect and leads to withdrawal you're in denial since the little monster craves its fix with no real pain and discomfort the threat of having erectile dysfunction terrifies many which is why they block it from their mind and overshadow it with the fear of stopping it's not that the fear is greater but quitting today is immediate why look on the negative side
• 95:00 - 95:30 perhaps it won't happen having bound to have quit by then anyway we tend to think of pornography as a tug of war on one side is fear it's unhealthy filthy and enslaving and on the other side are the positives it's my pleasure my friend my crutch it never seems to occur to us this side is also fear it's not that we enjoy pornography it's that we tend to be miserable without it
• 95:30 - 96:00 heroin addicts deprived of heroin go through misery but picture the utter Joy when they're finally allowed to plunge a needle into their vein and end that terrible craving okay now try to imagine how anyone could actually believe they get pleasure from sticking a hypodermic syringe into a vein non-heron addicts don't suffer that Panic feeling and heroin doesn't relieve the feeling it causes it non-users don't feel miserable if they aren't allowed to use pornography it's only users that suffer that feeling internet pornography doesn't relieve
• 96:00 - 96:30 that feeling it causes it the fear of the negative consequences doesn't help users quit either because they liken the feeling to walking through a Minefield if you get away with it fine but if you were unlucky you stepped on a mine and faced the consequences if you knew the risks and were prepared to take them what did it have to do with anyone else addicts in this state typically develop the following evasive tactics oh you'll eventually get old and lose your sexual prowess anyway of course you
• 96:30 - 97:00 do but sexual prowess isn't the point we're talking about mental slavery here even if that's the case is that a logical reason for deliberately cutting yourself short oh quality of life is more important than just living exactly are you suggesting to the quality of life of an addict is greater than someone who isn't addicted do you really believe that the quality of a user's life is better than non-users a
• 97:00 - 97:30 lifespan covering their head in the sand and being miserable certainly doesn't sound like a pleasant one oh I'm single and not planning to settle down in the future so why not even if that Preposterous statement were true is that a logical reason for playing with neurological impulse control mechanisms can you possibly conceive of anyone being stupid enough to strip naked whenever they're alone regardless of how sure they aren't expecting anyone that's what porn users effectively do Progressive gunging up of our reward

• 98:30 - 99:00 appetite you'll no longer want the high fructose corn syrup of Internet pornography there's evidence so overwhelming that it needs no proof when I bang my thumb with a hammer it hurts it need not be proven the stress of Internet pornography has flown effects onto other aspects of the user's life predisposing many to turn to drugs like cigarettes and alcohol to cope and in some instances even turning the host to consider suicide
• 99:00 - 99:30 users also suffer Illusions the ill effects of pornography are overstated the reverse is the case there is no doubt that internet pornography is the major cause of sexual dysfunction and many other problems how many divorces do you think have been caused by pornography there are no reliable ways to know but searches of online communities suggests the number is growing exponentially now there's an episode of the TV show Friends where the guys who were receiving continuous free pornography on
• 99:30 - 100:00 television started to wonder why that pizza delivery girl didn't ask to check out their big bedroom when you're addicted you invariably project pornographic fantasies onto real women imagine what careless or even accidental exposure on the darker sides of the internet might do to someone already at a Tipping Point in their life fighting against these porn-induced thoughts will be a major drain on their Mental Health effects of the brainwashing makes us tend to think like the man who having fallen off in a hundred story building is quoted saying as he whizzes past the
• 100:00 - 100:30 50th floor so far so good we think that we've gotten away with it so far one more important session won't make the difference see it another way the Habit is a continuous chain for life and each session creates the need for the next when you start the Habit you light a fuse the trouble is you don't know how long the fuse is every time you get into a porn session you're one step closer to the bomb exploding how will you know if it's the next one
• 100:30 - 101:00 section 9.1 section 9.1 Sinister black Shadows users find it very difficult to believe that internet pornography actually causes those insecure feelings when you're out late at night after a conscientious day at work non-users don't suffer from that feeling it's pornography that causes it another of the great joys of quitting pornography is the freedom from the Sinister black Shadows at the back of our minds all users know their fools to close their minds from the ill effects of pornography for most of our Lives it's
• 101:00 - 101:30 automatic the black Shadows are always lurking in our subconscious Minds just below the surface several of the most marvelous benefits of quitting are conscious like the ending of the waste of time and the sheer stupidity of making love to a two-dimensional image the last chapters have dealt with a considerable advantages of being a non-user but in the interest of fairness it's necessary to give a balanced account therefore the next chapter lists the advantages of being a user chapter 10 advantages of being a porn
• 101:30 - 102:00 user chapter 11 The Willpower method it's an accepted fact in society that it's very difficult to stop pornography books and forums advising you on how to stop usually start off by telling you how hard it is the truth is that it's ridiculously easy and while it's understandable to question that statement first just consider it if your aim is to run a mile in four minutes now that's difficult and you'll have to
• 102:00 - 102:30 undergo years of hard training and even then possibly being physically incapable of doing it however all you have to do to stop pornography is to not watch it and or masturbate anymore nobody forces you to masturbate apart from yourself and unlike food or water it isn't needed for survival so if you want to stop doing it why should it be difficult in fact it isn't it's users who make it difficult for themselves through use of willpower or any method that forces the user to feel like they're making some sort of sacrifice let's consider these
• 102:30 - 103:00 methods we don't decide to become users we merely experiment with porn magazines or websites and because they're awful that's right awful apart from our desired clip we're convinced that we can stop whenever we want to at first we watch those first few Clips when we want to and on special occasions but before we realize it we're not only visiting those sites regularly and masturbating when we want to we're masturbating to them daily pornography has become part of our Lives ensuring we require an
• 103:00 - 103:30 internet connection wherever we go we then believe we're entitled to love sex orgasm and the stress-relieving properties of pornography it doesn't seem to occur to us at the same clip in actors don't provide us with the same degree of arousal and we begin fighting against the red line in order to avoid bad porn in fact masturbation and internet pornography neither improves our sex lives nor reduces stress it's merely that users believe they can't enjoy life or handle stress without it it usually takes a long time to realize that we're hooked because we suffer from
• 103:30 - 104:00 the illusion that users watch pornography because they enjoy it and not because they need to when we're not enjoying pornography which is something we can only do when novelty shock or escalation is added or under the illusion that we can stop whenever this is a confidence trap oh I don't enjoy pornography so I can stop when I want to only you never seem to want to stop it's usually not until we actually try to stop that we realize a problem exists the first attempts are generally early triggered by meeting a partner and
• 104:00 - 104:30 noticing they aren't quite enough after initial dates another common reason is noticing health effects present in daily life regardless of reason the user always waits for a stressful situation whether health or sex as soon as they stop the little monster begins to get hungry the user then wants something to pump their dopamine like cigarettes alcohol or their favorite internet pornography with their Harem only a click away the porn cache is no longer in the basement it's virtual and accessible
• 104:30 - 105:00 from anywhere if their wife or husband is around or they're with friends they no longer have access to their virtual Harem making them even more distressed if the user has come across scientific material or online communities they'll be having a tug of war in their mind resisting Temptations and feeling deprived their way to usually relieve stress is now unavailable suffering a triple blow the probable result after this period of torture is compromised I'll cut down or I've picked the wrong time or perhaps I'll just wait until the
• 105:00 - 105:30 stress is gone for my life however once the stress is actually gone there's no reason to stop and the user doesn't decide to quit again until the stress comes back of course there's never a right time because life for most people becomes more stressful we leave the protection of our parents entering the world of setting up home taking on mortgages having children and having more responsible jobs regardless the user's life cannot become less stressful because pornography actually causes
• 105:30 - 106:00 stress the quicker the user passes on to the escalation stage the more distressed they become and the greater the illusion of dependency grows in fact it's an illusion life becomes more stressful and pornography or a similar crutch creates that illusion this will be discussed in Greater detail later but after these initial failures the user relies on the possibility that one day they'll wake up and just not want to masturbate or use pornography this hope is usually kindled by stories heard from other executors oh I wasn't serious until I had fading
• 106:00 - 106:30 penetration then I didn't want to use pornography any anymore and just stop masturbating don't kid yourself probe these rumors and you'll discover they're never quite as simple as they appear usually the user has already been preparing to stop and merely uses the incident as a springboard more often in the case of people who stop just like that they've suffered a shock perhaps a discovery by their partner a self-spotting incident or accessing pornography not of the normal sexual orientation or they've had a sexual dysfunction scare themselves
• 106:30 - 107:00 oh I won't stop because that's just the sort of person I am stop kidding yourself it won't happen unless you make it happen let's consider in Greater detail why the willpower method is so difficult for most of our Lives we adopt the head in the sand I'll stop tomorrow Approach at odd time something will trigger off and attempt to stop it may be concerns about health virility or a bout of self-analysis and realizing we don't actually enjoy it whatever the reason we start to weigh up the pros and cons of
• 107:00 - 107:30 pornography sex is split into tank trick which is a touch smell and voice and propagative orgasm this is one of the major keys in opening our mind and without this important distinction there will be confusion which leads to failure unrational assessment we find out what we've known our entire lives the conclusion is a thousand times over stop watching it if you were to sit down and give points to the advantages of stopping and compare them to the advantages of pornography the total Point count for stopping would far outweigh any
• 107:30 - 108:00 disadvantages if you employ Pascal's wager by quitting you're losing almost nothing with high chances of gains and higher chances of not losing although the user knows they'll be better off as a non-user the belief they're making a sacrifice trips them up although an illusion it's powerful they don't know why but the user has the belief that during the good and bad times of Life The Sessions appear to help even before starting their attempt societal brainwashing further reinforced by the brainwashing from their own addiction is then combined with the even more powerful brainwashing of how difficult
• 108:00 - 108:30 it is to give up users hear stories of those who've stopped for many months and still desperately crave it or disgrunt old quitters who having stopped spend the rest of their lives bemoaning the fact they'd love to have a session there are Tales of users stopping for many months or years living happy lives only to have one Peak at pornography and suddenly they're hooked again users probably know several in the advanced stages of the disease visibly destroying themselves and clearly not enjoying life
• 108:30 - 109:00 yet continuing to use additionally they probably suffered one or more of those experiences themselves so instead of starting with the feeling great haven't you heard the news I don't need to watch pornography anymore they instead start with feelings of Doom and Gloom as if trying to climb Everest and they falsely determined that once little monster has its hooks on you you're hooked for life many users start the attempt by apologizing to their girlfriends or wives and saying look I'm trying to give up pornography I'll probably be
• 109:00 - 109:30 irritable for the next couple of weeks so try to bear with me as you can see most attempts are doomed before they begin assuming that the user survives a few days without a session they're getting back their arousal and are starting to recover they haven't opened their favorite tube sites and are consequently getting aroused by normal stimuli they'd previously zoned out at the reasons they decided to stop in the first place are rapidly disappearing from their thoughts like seeing a bad Road accident while striving it'll slow you down for a while but you stop your foot on the throttle the next time
• 109:30 - 110:00 you're late for an appointment on the other side of the war is the little monster who still hasn't had its fix there's no physical pain if you had the same feeling because of a cold you wouldn't stop working or get depressed you'd laugh it off all the user knows is that they want to visit their Harem the little monster knows this and starts up the big brainwashing monster causing the same burst and it was a few hours or days earlier listing all the reasons to stop to now desperately search for any excuse to start again they begin saying things like oh life is too short a bomb
• 110:00 - 110:30 could go off I could step under a bus tomorrow I have left it too late they tell you everything gives you an addiction nowadays or I've picked the wrong time or oh I should have waited until after Christmas or after my holidays or after my tests or after this stressful event in my life or oh I can't concentrate I'm getting irritable and bad tempered I can't even do my job properly or oh my family and friends won't love me let's face it for everyone's sake I have to start again I'm a confirmed sex addict there's no way that I'll ever be happy again
• 110:30 - 111:00 without an orgasm or they say something like nobody can survive without sex or I knew this would happen my brain is sensitized by Delta phosphate due to changes affected by dopamine searches because of my past excessive porn use sensitization can never be removed from the brain at this stage the user usually gives in firing up the browser the schizophrenia increasing on one hand there's a tremendous relief of ending the craving as the little monster finally gets his fix on the other hand the orgasm is
• 111:00 - 111:30 awful and the user cannot understand why they're doing it this is why the user thinks they lack willpower it's not in fact lack of willpower all they've done is changed their mind and made a perfectly rational decision in light of the latest information what's the point of being healthy or Rich if you're miserable absolutely none far better to have a shorter enjoyable life than a lengthy miserable one fortunately this is untrue for the non-user as life is infinitely more enjoyable without pornography the misery
• 111:30 - 112:00 the user is suffering isn't due to withdrawal pangs though it's initially triggered by them the actual Agony is the tug of war in the mind caused by doubt and uncertainty because the user starts by feeling they're making a sacrifice they then begin to feel deprived which is a form of stress one of these stressful times is when the brain tells them to have a peek wanting to backtrack as soon as they stop but because they've stopped they can't and this makes them even more depressed and sets the trigger off again another
• 112:00 - 112:30 Factor making quitting so difficult is waiting for something to happen if your objective is passing the driving test as soon as you've passed the test it's certain whether you've achieved your objective Under The Willpower method the internal narrative is if I can go long enough without internet pornography the urge to watch will eventually go you can see this in practice in online forums where addicts talk about their streaks or days of abstinence as said above the agony the user undergoes is mental and caused by uncertainty although there's no physical pain it still has powerful effects now
• 112:30 - 113:00 miserable and insecure the user is far from Forgetting now full of doubts and fears like how long will the craving last will I ever be happy again will I ever want to wake up in the morning how will I ever cope with stress in the future the user is just sitting there waiting for things to improve but while they're still moping the Harem is becoming ever more precious in fact something actually is happening but only unconsciously if they can survive weeks without opening a browser the craving for the little monster disappears
• 113:00 - 113:30 however as stated previously the pangs of withdrawal from dopamine and opioids are so mild that the user isn't even aware of them at this time many users since they've kicked it and so take a peek to prove it sending them back down the water slide having supplied dopamine to the body there's now a little voice at the back of their mind saying you want another one in fact they had kicked it but have hooked themselves again as a child you watched cartoons and as per Neuroscience you form neural Pathways Delta false B for them if you
• 113:30 - 114:00 wanted to discourage a child from watching you'd study if those Pathways still existed and Survey adults on why they don't like to watch their favorite childhood cartoons anymore for one there is better entertainment available and secondly the cartoons just don't hold the same magic anymore with the willpower method you're just denying the child the cartoon but with easy peasy you're also making sure they see no value in it which is better the user won't usually get into another session immediately thinking I don't want to get hooked again and allows a safe period of
• 114:00 - 114:30 hours days or even weeks to pass the ex-user can then say well I didn't get hooked so I can safely have another session they've Fallen back into the same trap as when they first started and are already on the slippery slope users who succeed using the willpower method tend to find it long and difficult because the primary problem is the brainwashing long after the physical addiction has died the user is still moping around miserable eventually after surviving this long-term torture it begins to Dawn on them that they aren't
• 114:30 - 115:00 going to give in stopping the moping and accepting that life goes on and is enjoyable without pornography however there are significantly more failures than successes because some who succeed go through their lives in a vulnerable state left with a certain amount of brainwashing telling them that porn does in fact give them a boost this explains why many users who've stopped for long periods end up starting again later on in fact many X users will have the occasional session as a special treat or to convince themselves how strong their self-control is now it does exactly that
• 115:00 - 115:30 but as soon as the session ends the dopamine starts to leave and a little voice at the back of their mind begins driving them towards another one if they decide to partake it still seems to be under control no shocks escalation or novelty seeking so they say marvelous well I'm not really enjoying it I won't get hooked after Christmas or this holiday or this trauma I'll stop little do they know that the water slides of their brain have been greased even more too late they're already hooked the Trap they managed to claw themselves out of
• 115:30 - 116:00 has claimed its victim again as said previously enjoyment doesn't come into it it never did if we watched because of enjoyment nobody would stay on the tube sites for longer than it takes to finish the deed we assume we enjoy internet pornography because we can't believe we'd be stupid enough to get addicted if we didn't enjoy it most users don't have any idea about supernormal stimulus novelty or shock seeking and even after reading about it they don't believe the user is motivated by evolutionary reward circuit wiring that's why so much of pornography is
• 116:00 - 116:30 subconscious if you are aware of the neurological changes then had to justify costing you money in the future even the illusion of enjoyment would go when we block our minds to the bad side we feel stupid if we had to face it that will be intolerable if you watch a user in action you'll see they're happy only when they're unaware they're using once aware they tend to be uncomfortable and apologetic porn feeds little monster so upon purging it from your body along with the brainwashing or the big monster you'll
• 116:30 - 117:00 have neither need nor desire to watch chapter 12 beware of cutting down many users resort to cutting down as a stepping stone towards stopping or as an attempt to control the little monster many recommend cutting down or a porn diet as a pick-me-up however using cutting down as a stepping stone to stopping is fatal it's these attempts to cut down that keep us trapped for the remainder of Our Lives generally cutting down follows failed attempts to stop after a few hours or
• 117:00 - 117:30 days or weeks of abstinence the user says something like I can't face the thought of going to sleep without visiting my online Harem so from now on I'll just use porn once in four days or Purge my collection of bad porn if I can follow this porn diet I can either hold it there or cut down even further certain terrible things now happen number one they're stuck with the worst of all worlds still addicted to internet pornography and keeping the monster alive not only in their body but in their mind by drip feeding it
• 117:30 - 118:00 number two they're wishing their life away waiting for the next session number three prior to cutting down whenever they wanted to visit their Harem they'd fire up their browser and at least partially relieve the withdrawal Banks now in addition to the normal stresses of Life they're causing themselves to suffer the withdrawal bangs for most of their lives which makes them even more miserable and bad tempered and number four whilst indulging they neither enjoyed most of the sessions nor realized they were using a super normal stimulus it was automatic the only Harem visit that was
• 118:00 - 118:30 enjoyed was one after a period of abstinence now that they waited an extra hour or extra day or four days a week for each Harem visit they enjoy each one the longer waited the more enjoyable each session appears to become because the enjoyment in a session isn't the session itself it's the ending of the agitation caused by the craving whether slight physical craving or mental moping the longer the Suffering The more enjoyable each session becomes

• 119:30 - 120:00 will never be the same without it far from turning you off internet pornography all that cutting down accomplishes is leaving you feeling insecure and miserable convincing you that the most precious thing on this Earth is the new clip you just missed that there's no way you'll be happy again without seeing it there is nothing more pathetic than the user who's been trying to cut down suffering from the delusion that the less pornography they watch the less they'll want to visit their online Harem the reverse is true the less they watch pornography the longer they'll suffer
• 120:00 - 120:30 withdrawal pangs and the more they enjoy the relief of relieving them however they'll notice their favorite genre isn't hitting the spot but that won't stop them if the tube sites were dedicated to only one star or one genre no user would even go more than once do you find that difficult to believe what's the worst moment of self-control on feels waiting for four days and then having a climax that's right then what's the most precious moment for most users on a four day porn diet well that's right the same climax after waiting for
• 120:30 - 121:00 four days do you really believe that you're masturbating to enjoy the orgasm or the more rational explanation that you need to relieve withdrawal pangs under the illusion that you're entitled to removal of the brainwashing is essential to remove Illusions about pornography before you extinguish the final session unless you remove the illusion that you enjoy it before you close that window there is no way you can prove it afterwards without getting hooked again when hovering over bookmarks and save pictures ask yourself where the glory in this action is perhaps you believe that
• 121:00 - 121:30 only certain Clips are of good taste like ones on habitual or favorite themes if so why bother to watch other videos or themes because you got into the habit why would anyone habitually mess up their brain and waste themselves nothing is different after a month so why should a porn clip be any different you can test this yourself find that hot clip from last month to prove it's different then set a reminder and watch the same clip after a month without pornography it will hit almost the same
• 121:30 - 122:00 spots as it did last month the same clip will be different after a social event where you're turned down or tested by a potential partner the reason being that the addict can never be truly happy if the little monster remains unsatisfied where does satisfaction come into it it's just that they're miserable if they can't relieve the withdrawal symptoms the difference between watching pornography and not is the difference between being happy and miserable that's why internet pornography appears to be better users who get on their sites first thing in the morning for pornography are
• 122:00 - 122:30 miserable whether watching it or not cutting down not only doesn't work but is the worst form of torture it doesn't work because initially the user hopes that by getting into the Habit less and less they'll reduce the desire to watch pornography it's not a habit it's addiction the nature of any addiction is wanting more and more not less and less therefore in order to cut down the user has to exercise willpower and discipline for the rest of their lives so cutting down means willpower and discipline forever stopping is far easier and less
• 122:30 - 123:00 painful there are literally tens of thousands of cases of which cutting down has failed the problem stopping isn't the dopamine addiction which is easy to cope with it's the mistaken belief that pornography gives you pleasure brought about initially by brainwashing received before we started using further reinforced by the actual addiction all cutting down does is reinforce the fallacy further to the extent that pornography dominates their lives completely and convinces the user the most precious thing on earth is their addiction the handful of cases that do succeed have been achieved by a relatively short
• 123:00 - 123:30 period of cutting down followed by going cold turkey now just to be clear these users didn't stop because of their cutting down but in spite of it all it did was prolong the agony failed attempts leaving users nervous wrecks and even more convinced they're hooked for life this is usually enough to keep them reverting back to their online Haram for pleasure and for a crutch or at least for another stretch before the next attempt however cutting down does help to illustrate the futility of pornography clearly demonstrating that visits to the Harem are not enjoyable after periods of
• 123:30 - 124:00 abstinence you have to bang your head against a brick wall which is like suffering withdrawal pangs in order to make it nice upon stopping therefore the choices are number one cutting down for life and suffering self-imposed torture which you'll be unable to do anyway number two watching pornography and increasingly torturing yourself for life which is pointless and number three being nice to yourself and cutting porn out altogether the other aspect that cutting down demonstrates is that there's no such thing as the odd or occasional Harem
• 124:00 - 124:30 visit internet pornography is a chain reaction that will last the rest of your life unless you make a positive effort to break it remember cutting down will drag you down chapter 13 just one Peak just one Peak is a myth that you must remove from your mind it's just one Peak that gets us started in the first place it's just one Peak to tide us over a difficult patch on a special occasion that defeats most of our attempts to stop it's just one Peak that after

• 125:00 - 125:30 long conference trip hard day at work fight with the kids or incident where your wife or husband rejects you for sex get it firmly in your mind that there is no such thing as just one Peak it's a chain reaction that will last the rest of your life unless broken the myth about the odd special occasion keeps users moping after stopping get into the habit of never seeing the no big deal session it's a fantasy whenever you think about pornography you see a filthy lifetime spending eons behind a screen
• 125:30 - 126:00 for the privilege of destroying yourself mentally and physically a lifetime of slavery and hopelessness it isn't a crime if your erections are unreliable but it is when you could be happier long term but instead choose to sacrifice that for short-term pleasure it's okay we can't always come up with something to do for the void doing that isn't realistically possible in every instance for our entire lives we can plan for most of them but sometimes it just happens good and bad times also happen irrespective of pornography but
• 126:00 - 126:30 get it clear in your mind pornography isn't it you're stuck with either a lifetime of misery or none at all you wouldn't dream of taking cyanide just because you like the taste of almonds so stop punishing yourself with the occasional no big deal session ask user with issues if you had the opportunity to go back to the time before you became hooked would you have become a user the answer is inevitably you've got to be joking yet every user has that choice every day of their lives so why don't they opt for it the answer is fear the
• 126:30 - 127:00 fear they can't stop or that life won't be the same without it stop kidding yourself you can do it anybody can it's ridiculously easy but in order to make it so there are certain fundamentals to get clear in your mind number one there's nothing to give up only marvelous positive gains to achieve number two never convince yourself of the odd no big deal or just one Peak session it doesn't exist there's only a lifetime of Filth and slavery and number three there's nothing different about
• 127:00 - 127:30 you any user can find it easy to stop many users believe their confirmed addicts or have addictive personalities this usually happens as a result of reading excessive amounts of shocking Neuroscience remember there is no such thing nobody is born with the need to masturbate to video clips before they became hooked it's the drug that hooks you not the nature of your character or personality the nature of addictive supernormal stimulus makes you believe this is the case however it's essential to remove this belief because if you
• 127:30 - 128:00 believe you're addicted you will be even after the little monster in your body is long dead it's essential to remove all of this brainwashing chapter 14 casual users heavy users tend to Envy The Casual porn user we've all met these characters oh I can go all week without a session it doesn't really bother me we wish we were like that now this might be hard to believe but no user enjoys being a user at all never forget no user ever decided to become one casual or
• 128:00 - 128:30 otherwise therefore all users feel stupid internally they therefore all users have to lie to themselves and others in a vain attempt to justify their stupidity golf Fanatics brag about how often they play and want to play so why do users porn Fanatics brag about how little they masturbate if that's a true Criterion then surely the Accolade is not masturbating at all isn't it if someone said to you I can go all week without carrots and it doesn't bother me in the slightest you'd think you were
• 128:30 - 129:00 talking to an insane guy if I enjoyed carrots why would I want to go all week without them and if I didn't enjoy them why would I make such a statement so when a user makes a comment about surviving a week without a session they're trying to convince themselves and you that they don't have a problem but there would be no need to make a statement if they didn't have a problem translated this comment is I managed to survive a whole week without pornography like every user hoping that after this they could survive the rest of their lives if only able to survive a week can
• 129:00 - 129:30 you imagine how precious the session must have been afterwards having felt deprived for an entire week this is why casual users are effectively be more hooked than heavy users not only is the illusion of pleasure greater because they spend more time between withdrawal paying real evil but they have less incentive to quit because they spend less time on pornography itself and are therefore less vulnerable to health risks occasionally they may experience sexual dysfunction here or there but they're unsure about what caused it and
• 129:30 - 130:00 so it's blamed on other factors remember the only pleasure users get is in the search and seek dopamine cycle and relieving the withdrawal effects as has already been explained the pleasure is an illusion imagine the little porn monster as a near imperceptible itch that we remain unaware of most of the time now if you have that permanent itch the natural tendency is to scratch it as reward circuits become increasingly immune to dopamine and opioids the natural tendency is to Edge escalate binge novelty seek shock seek Etc there
• 130:00 - 130:30 are four main factors that prevent users from this intensive chain viewing first we have time most literally don't have the time to do it they can't afford the minutes then we have health in order to relieve the itch we have to consume all free material that's available and then some capacity to cope with that kind of binging varies from each individual and at different times at different situations in their lives this acts as an automatic restraint and we have discipline discipline is imposed by Society by the user's work or school
• 130:30 - 131:00 friends and relatives or perhaps even by the user themselves as a result of the natural tug of war going on in every user's mind and finally we have imagination a lack of imagination plays down the shock novelty and other values of the clip on a subjective basis now it's easy to think of non-casual users or heavy users as weak unable to understand why others are able to limit their intake however heavy users should keep in mind that most casual users are simply incapable of chain viewing which
• 131:00 - 131:30 requires very strong imagination and stamina some of these once a week users that heavy users tend to Envy are literally physically incapable of doing more or because their job Society or own hatred of becoming hooked won't allow them to do more at this point it may be advantageous to provide a few definitions that will be used throughout the book first we have the non-user this is someone who's never fallen prey to the Trap but shouldn't be complacent there are non user only by luck or Grace of goodness all users were convinced
• 131:30 - 132:00 they'd never become hooked and some non-users keep trying an occasional session but just don't get hooked yet then we have the Casual user of which there are two basic classifications first we have the user who's fallen for the track but doesn't realize it don't envy such users they're merely sampling the nectar at the mouth of the pitcher plant and in all probability will soon be heavy users remember just as all alcoholics started off as casual drinkers so too do all users start off casually and second of the Casual user category
• 132:00 - 132:30 we have the user who was once previously a heavy user and so thinks they can't stop these are the saddest of all and they fall into various categories each regarding a separate comment and so now I'll list the categories of casual users who were previously heavy users first we have the once a day user now if they enjoy their entitlement to orgasm why do they use internet pornography only once daily if they can take it or leave it why do they bother at all remember the
• 132:30 - 133:00 Habit is in actuality banging your head against a wall to make it relaxing upon stopping the once a day user leaves their withdrawal banks for less than an hour each day although unaware the rest of their day is spent banging their head against this wall doing so for most of their lives they're using once a day because they literally can't risk getting caught or messing with their neurological health it's easy to convince a heavy user that they don't enjoy it they know but it's significantly harder to convince a casual one anyone who has gone through
• 133:00 - 133:30 an attempt to cut down will know it's the worst torture of all and almost guaranteed to keep you addicted for the rest of your life then another casual user who might have formally been a heavy user is the rejected user now these demand the right to orgasm every day but their wife or husband isn't always happy to fulfill the request initially they're using internet pornography to fill that void but upon digging the exciting water slide they're trapped in a cycle of novelty Shock supernormal images Etc in fact they're happy with their
• 133:30 - 134:00 wife or husband's rejection as it provides something of an excuse if internet pornography gives so much to you why bother to have a wife or husband at all set them free instead they're not enjoying sessions where they have to carry their partner in their mind at some point they're looking for their real life partner to hand them an excuse to venture into the dark valleys of the internet then we have the pornid diet user also known as I can stop whenever I want to I've done it thousands of times now if
• 134:00 - 134:30 they think dieting helps getting them into the mood to pick up Partners why are they even on the diet of once in every four days nobody can predict the future and what if the happenstance of meeting occurred say an hour after your scheduled session also if occasional cleaning the blooming is good to relieve tension why not Plumb every day it's been proven that masturbation isn't required to keep genitals healthy and internet pornography isn't required at all and even if that were the case no pickup artist Guru who has read about
• 134:30 - 135:00 the neurological damage will ever recommend watching super stimulus pornography the truth is the porn diet user is still hooked although the rid of the physical addiction they're still left with the primary problem of brainwashing they're hoping each time they'll stop for good but soon fall for the same trap again most users actually Envy these Stoppers and starters and think about how lucky the Dieter is to be able to control her or his usage however they Overlook the fact that the Dieter isn't controlling their usage
• 135:00 - 135:30 when they're using they wish they weren't they go through the hassle of stopping then begin to feel deprived and fall for the Trap again wishing they hadn't they get the worst of Both Worlds if you think about it this is true in the lives of users when allowed to have a session taking it as entitled or wishing they didn't it's only when the bribe that pornography becomes precious the forbidden fruit syndrome is one of the awful dilemmas for users they can never win because they're moping for a myth an illusion there's only a single
• 135:30 - 136:00 way they can win stopping moping by stopping pornography then we have the I only watch static or tame or homemade pornography user yes everyone does this to start with but isn't it amazing how the average shock value of the clip seems to rapidly increase and before we know it we're feeling deprived or tolerant the novelty lacks with static pornography so we pay the piper for a cup of grease and ride down the water slide towards resentment and guilt the
• 136:00 - 136:30 worst thing you can do is use your wife or husband's pictures with approval of course for masturbation why because in this process you're rewriting your brain for the seeking searching and variety-induced still amine flushes chemically the born water slides in the brain is Delta phosphere wielding up so you'll find yourself having difficulties when you're with them in real time another trap in this category is amateur or homemade pornography now most of these are fakes and you know it and plus you're also not going to stop on the very first one that hits your eyes
• 136:30 - 137:00 instead continuing to seek in search which is part of the dopamine cycle remember it's not only orgasm the brain seeks but the novelty of the hunt that gives the water slide its thrill the porn content isn't the issue whether amateur or professional it's the flushes of dopamine in the brain causing buildup of Tolerance and satiation porn destroys normal brain operation masturbation confusing the muscle brain response orgasm floods the brain with opioids and makes the pathway easier to follow next
• 137:00 - 137:30 time and then we have the I've stopped but have an occasional Peak user in a way peaking users are the most pathetic of all either they go through their lives believing they're being deprived or more often the occasional Peak becomes two sliding downwards on the slippery slope sooner or later falling back to being heavy users they've again fallen from the very trap they fell into the first place there are two other categories of casual users the first is the type masturbating
• 137:30 - 138:00 to images or clips of the latest celebrity sex tapes hitting the news or something that They Carried home from their accidental viewing at school or work these people are really just non-users but they feel they're missing out they want to be part of the action with most of us starting off this way next time notice that after a while the celebrity of your fantasy isn't doing it for you anymore the more unattainable the target of your fantasy the more frustrating the withdrawal of the orgasm is the second category is best described
• 138:00 - 138:30 by outlining a case shared online a professional woman had been reading internet pornography stories for many years it had never used more or less than once each night incidentally she was a very strong-willed lady most users would wonder why she wanted to stop in the first place gladly pointing out that there was no risk of pied or PE in her case which is actually untrue she still risks it despite being a woman she wasn't even using static images the stories themselves being far Tamer than any material that common users use on a
• 138:30 - 139:00 daily basis the people who were still wondering why she wanted to stop were making the mistake of assuming that casual users are happier and More in control they might be more in control but they certainly aren't happy in the woman's case she wasn't satisfied with their partner nor real sex and highly irritable when responding to her daily stresses and strains her nearest and dearest was unable to figure out what was bothering her even if she convinced herself to be unafraid of her usage
• 139:00 - 139:30 through rationalization she still found herself on unable to enjoy real relationships which invariably involve ups and downs her brain's Reward Center was unable to make use of normal distressors present in life as a result of daily dopamine flooding subsequent down regulation of Iran's receptors had rendered her melancholic under most circumstances like most she had a great fear of pornography's dark side and treatment of women before her first time eventually she fell victim to societal brainwashing and tried her first sight

• 140:00 - 140:30 when finally relieved making the mistake of believing pornography is just a habit users think if I can keep it down to a certain level or only on special occasions my brain and body will just accept it then I can use at that level or reduce it further should I wish to get it very clear in your mind the Habit doesn't exist porn is drug addiction with a natural tendency being to relieve withdrawal pangs not enduring them to hold it at the level you are currently

• 141:30 - 142:00 reducing her to tears such cases are rare but look at it logically either there's a genuine crutch or pleasure in pornography or there isn't if there is who wants to wait an hour a day or even a week why should you be deprived of the crotch or pleasure in the meantime if there is no genuine crutch or pleasure why bother paying a visit to your online Haram here's another case of a once in four days man describing his life as follows

• 158:00 - 158:30 knowing the difference between the tame static porn of yesteryear and the latest virtual reality streaming experience the problem is that although every user consumes internet pornography purely to relieve the dopamine craving caused by it it's not the addiction to the chemical that hooks the user but self-brainwashing resulting from addiction an intelligent person can fall for a confidence trick but only a fool would continue falling for it upon realizing the trick fortunately most users are not fools they only think they are each
• 158:30 - 159:00 individual user has their own private brainwashing that's why there appears to be such a diverse range of types of addicts only serving to further compound the mysteries of this addiction while the benefit of the original book by Alan Carr was to quit nicotine one of the quickest and most addictive drugs known to man it was agreeably surprising to realize that the philosophy propounded in the original book is still sound when adapted the accumulated knowledge and challenge that Carr and myself undertake is how to communicate
• 159:00 - 159:30 that knowledge to each individual user the fact I know every user can not only find it easy to stop but can actually enjoy the process is not only pointless but exceedingly frustrating unless the user can be made to realize it in his original book Alan Carr explains his controversial advice many people said to me you say continue to smoke until you finish the book this tends to make the smoker take ages to read the book or just not finish it period therefore you should change the
• 159:30 - 160:00 instruction now this sounds logical but I know if the instruction were stop immediately some smokers wouldn't even start reading the book I had a smoker consult me in the early days that said I really resent having to seek your help I know I'm strong-willed in every other area of my life I'm in control why is it that all these other smokers quit by using their own willpower yet I have to come to you and he continued I think I could do it on my own if only I could smoke while I
• 160:00 - 160:30 was doing it societal beliefs dictates that stopping smoking is incredibly difficult so what does a smoker need when something is difficult well his little friend our crutch escaping smoking appears to be a double blow not only is there a difficult task to perform which is hard enough but the crutch we normally rely on for such occasions isn't available perhaps the real beauty of this method is that you don't need to give up while going through the process instead we get rid of all fears and doubts initially so Upon finishing the final session and
• 160:30 - 161:00 you're already enjoying freedom therefore this hackbook about pornography will keep the same advice intact no matter how much it's said that it'll be easy and enjoyable there will be a vast majority who won't be able to accept it due to personal brainwashing on how difficult quitting is now timing is the only chapter that causes me to question Alan's original advice seriously above all if triggers include office stress then picking a holiday to make an attempt and vice
• 161:00 - 161:30 versa you know that advice this isn't the easiest way instead of picking what you consider to be the most difficult time whether that's stress social obligations concentration or boredom once you've proven that you can cope with and enjoy life in the worst situations every other one is enjoyable but if that were the advice would you even make the attempt here's an analogy to explain that my sister and I intend to swim together we arrive at the pool the same time but rarely end up swimming together why well the reason being that she
• 161:30 - 162:00 immerses one toe in half an hour is actually swimming that's slow torture I know in advance that at some stage no matter how cold the water is I'll have to Brave it so I've learned to do it the easy way diving straight in now imagine if I were in a position to insist that if she didn't dive straight in she couldn't swim if that were the case she wouldn't swim at all do you see the problem from feedback many users have used the original timing advice to delay what
• 162:00 - 162:30 they think will be the evil day my next thoughts were using a very similar technique to the advantages of pornography chapters something like timing is very important and in the next chapter you'll be advised on the best time to make the attempt and on the next page there's just a massive now now that is in fact the best advice but would you take it perhaps the most subtle aspect of the Trap is that when we have genuine stress in our lives it's not the right time to stop but at times without stress we have no desire to end the torture
• 162:30 - 163:00 ask yourself the following questions first when you got onto pornography for the first time did you realize that you'd continue to depend on it for the rest of your life without ever being able to stop well of course you didn't and second are you going to continue the rest of your life without ever being able to stop of course you aren't okay so when will you stop tomorrow next year the year after isn't that what you've been asking yourself since you first realized you were hooked are you hoping that one morning you'll
• 163:00 - 163:30 wake up and just not want to watch anymore stop kidding yourself with any addiction you get progressively more hooked not less are you going to wait until you've actually started to feel that getting out of bed is harder than just masturbating that would be a bit pointless the real trap here is the belief that now isn't the right time it'll always be easier tomorrow we believe that we live stressful lives but in actuality we don't most genuine stress has been removed from our lives
• 163:30 - 164:00 well leaving home we don't live in fear of being attacked by wild animals most don't wonder where their next meal will come from or if a roof will be over their heads tonight think of the life of a wild animal every time a rabbit goes out of its little burrow it's facing Vietnam for its entire life but the rabbit handles it it's got adrenaline and other hormones and so do we the truth is the most stressful periods for any creature's life are early childhood and Adolescence we've been equipped to cope with stress and many who grow up with

• 164:30 - 165:00 decided that you aren't staying in the trap for the rest of your life therefore at some point whether you find it easy or difficult you're allowed to go through the process of getting free pornography isn't a habit or pleasure it's drug addiction and a disease we've established that far from being easier tomorrow it'll get progressively worse the time to get rid of it is now or as near to now as you can manage just think of how quickly each week of Our Lives passes that's all it takes think of how nice it'll be to enjoy the rest of your

• 166:00 - 166:30 tend to Envy those demanding sex and pornography as a crutch with all the brainwashing from childhood it's quite understandable that we've fallen into the Trap why is it then after realizing what a mugs game porn is and managing to kick the habit that we walk straight back into the same trap well it's the influence of the societal brainwashing complaining pornography with sex presented as normal the ex-user has a Pang the insecure void feelings of them being single causes
• 166:30 - 167:00 feelings of anxiety and drives them to ride the water slide this is indeed a curious anomaly particularly if this observation is considered not only is every non-user in the world happy to be so but every user in the world even with their warped addicted brainwashed mind suffering that illusion of enjoyment or relaxation wishes they'd never become hooked in the first place so why do some ex users Envy well first just one Peak remember it
• 167:00 - 167:30 doesn't exist stop seeing the isolated occasion and start looking at it from the point of view of the porn user you might be envying them but they don't approve of themselves and they envy you if only you could somehow clinically watch another user as they can be the most powerful boost of all to help you out of it notice how quickly they open many tabs in browser windows fast forwarding to the important sections quickly getting bored of clips and running through the gamut of genres producing novelty shock anxiety Etc
• 167:30 - 168:00 notice particularly that the ACT appears to be automatic remember they aren't enjoying it it's that they can't enjoy themselves without it the next morning waking up with weakened will lost energy and bleary eyes they'll have to continue choking themselves at the first appearance of stress and strain they're facing a lifetime of Filth poor mental health and stained confidence a lifetime of destroying themselves with black Shadows at the back of their mind and
• 168:00 - 168:30 all this to achieve what purpose the illusion you're getting what you deserve and Damned pleasure and number two the second reason some ex users have pangs is because the porn user is doing something like self-pleasuring and the non-user isn't so they tend to feel deprived of it get it clear in your mind it's not the non-user who's being deprived but the poor addict who is being deprived of Health Energy confidence Peace of Mind
• 168:30 - 169:00 courage Tranquility freedom and self-respect get out of the habit of envying porn users and start seeing them as the miserable pathetic creatures they really are I know I was once one of the worst that's why you're reading this book and not the ones who can't face up to it and continue to kid themselves you wouldn't Envy a heroin addict and like all drug addiction yours won't get any better each year it'll get exponentially worse so long as you continue being addicted if you don't enjoy being a user today

• 169:30 - 170:00 neurological changes are going to overrun the real-life romance making it less desirable Mr Hyde is definitely going to overrule Dr jekyll's instructions if you use internet pornography you're training yourself for the role of voyeur or requiring the option of clicking to something more arousing at the slightest drop in dopamine levels or the continual search for just the right scene for maximum effect Additionally you might be masturbating in a hunched over position or watching your smartphone in bed on
• 170:00 - 170:30 the nightly eventually Desiring those cues more than real life stimuli it's sex goes against every aspect of the online Harem so it stands no chance when compared the memory is created when you're young are powerful and long lasting so breaking down those pornographic water slides and rewriting or creating new ones takes longer however that's not to say it's any more difficult every time you write on the porn water slides you're greasing it keeping the nerves fresh and ready to fire when
• 170:30 - 171:00 parking next to a fast food restaurant the smell of the fryer floats into your nostrils and the sale is already made likewise the pouring water slides in your brain are ready for you to get sucked in and are open 24 hours a day each cue or trigger lights up your reward circuit with the promise of sex only it isn't sex nevertheless nerve cells solidify these associations with sexual arousal by sprouting new branches to strengthen the connections the more you use pornography the stronger the nerve connections become the end result
• 171:00 - 171:30 is that you might ultimately need to be a voyeur needing to click to ever escalating and novel material needing pornography to get to sleep or needing to search for the perfect ending to get the job done as with any substance or behavioral drug the body builds tolerance and the drug ceases to relieve the withdrawal pangs completely as soon as the porn user closes the session they want another one and quickly the permanent hunger remaining unsatisfied the natural inclination now is escalation to get the
• 171:30 - 172:00 dopamine Rush however most users are prevented from doing this for either or both of the following reasons first is time they simply don't have the time or maybe the money to afford paid porn sites then is Health there's only so much the body can take either the dopamine surges or orgasms plus orgasms actually trigger chemicals in order to cut down the dopamine flush it has to that's just the way the Body Works once the little monster leaves your body the
• 172:00 - 172:30 awful feeling of insecurity ends your confidence returns along with a marvelous feeling of self-respect obtaining the assurance that take control of your life and using it as a springboard to tackle other problems this is one of the many great advantages of Breaking Free from any addiction the compartmentalization myth is one of the many tricks that the little monster plays with your mind these tricks make it harder to stop due to the impossible satisfaction of the permanent hunger causing many users to turn to cigarettes heavy drinking or even harder drugs in
• 172:30 - 173:00 order to satisfy the void humans are rating animals both to ourselves and others watching pornography with your partner is unsatisfying as you both rate each other's performance against the narrative in the pornography do you want Brad Pitt in your bedroom even if he's on a poster no one person can match a harem where each experience is acted scripted and directed by professionals and immediately available 24 hours a day chapter 20 avoid false incentives
• 173:00 - 173:30 many users on The Willpower method attempt to increase their motivation through construction of false incentives there are many examples of this a typical one being to reward themselves with gifts after not watching pornography for a month now this appears to be a logical and sensible approach but is in fact false because any self-respecting user would rather continue watching pornography every day than reward themselves with a self-giving gift this generates doubt in
• 173:30 - 174:00 the user's mind because not only will they have to abstain for 30 days they're not sure they'll even enjoy the days of that pornography their only pleasure or Grudge has been taken away all this is done is increase the size of the sacrifice the user feels they're making now ever more precious in their mind other examples include I'll stop so that it'll force me to get a social life and more real sex or I'll stop so that's a magical energy will help me to LEAP
• 174:00 - 174:30 above the competitors and get the partner I pursue or I'll stop so that I can commit myself to not wasting my energy and enthusiasm with pornography in order to grow hunger in myself now these are actually true and they can be effective and you might actually end up getting exactly what you want but think on it for a second if you do get what you wanted once the novelty is gone you'll feel deprived and if you don't get what you wanted you'll feel miserable either way sooner or later you'll fall for the same trap again
• 174:30 - 175:00 if you link quitting to a false incentive you only increase doubt because if you don't get your incentive and even if you do you'll begin thinking doubtful thoughts like will quitting actually make my life better if I quit and don't get what I want that I use the method correctly thoughts like these increase feelings of sacrifice and therefore create packs another typical example is online or form pact these have the advantage of eliminating Temptation for certain periods however they generally fail for
• 175:00 - 175:30 the following reasons number one the incentive is false so why would you want to stop just because other people are doing so all this achieves is generating additional pressure and increases the feelings of sacrifice it's fine if all users genuinely want to stop at one particular time but you can't force them to stop although all secretly want to until they're ready to do so a pact creates additional pressure which only increases their desire to watch this turns them into secret viewers further increasing the feeling of dependency
• 175:30 - 176:00 number two is dependency on each other using the willpower method breeds feelings of undergoing a period of penance during which they wait for the urge to disappear if they give in there's a sense of failure when using the willpower method at least one of the participants is bound to give up providing the other participants with the excuse they've been waiting for oh it's not their fault they would have held out but Fred or someone like that let them down the truth is that most of them have already been cheating
• 176:00 - 176:30 number three if you share the credit that's the reverse of dependency there's a marvelous sense of achievement in stopping pornography and when doing it alone the Acclaim you receive from your friends and online buddies can be a tremendous boost over the first few days however when everybody is doing it at the same time that credit has to be shared and the Boost is consequently reduced number four another classic example is the guru promise stopping will give you happiness because you're no longer engaged in the tug of war your brain
• 176:30 - 177:00 beginning rewiring and regaining impulse control that's true however you must keep in mind this will neither make you a sex god nor win you the lottery nobody except you cares in the slightest if you stop pornography you aren't a weak person if you're using porn three times a day and have pied or a strong person if you're an addict and don't stop kidding yourself if the job offer of 10 months work for 12 months salary a year or the risks of cutting down your brain's ability to cope with day-to-day
• 177:00 - 177:30 stress and strains or putting yourself at odds with having a reliable erection or the lifetime of mental and physical torture and slavery didn't stop them the above few phony incentives will make the slightest bit of difference and will only succeed in making the sacrifice the users appear worse instead concentrate on the other side of pornography what am I getting out of it why do I need to watch pornography keep looking at the other side of the tug of war and ask yourself what pornography is doing for you absolutely nothing why do I need to
• 177:30 - 178:00 do it you don't you're only punishing yourself this is Pascal's wager you have almost nothing to lose which is like fading arousal and nothing else and chances of big profits full and reliable arousal mental well-being and happiness and you have no chances of losing big why not then declare acquitting to friends and family well it'll make you a proud X addict or ex-user not an elated and happy non-user it might scare your
• 178:00 - 178:30 wife or husband a bit since they may see this as a scheme to have more sex in a sort of new wage way they may also fear you turning into a sex machine it's hard to explain unless they're open-minded any attempt to get others to help you in quitting gives more power to the little monster pushing it from your mind and totally ignoring it has the effect of trying not to think about it be mindful instead as soon as you spot the thoughts the cues like being home alone or absent-minded thoughts just say to yourself great I'm no longer a slave
• 178:30 - 179:00 to pornography I'm free and happy to know differences in sex this will cut the oxygen to the thought and stop it from burning towards urges and Cravings in this aspect practicing mindfulness meditation can be helpful to assist in the depersonalization of thoughts chapter 21 the easy way to stop this chapter contains instructions regarding the easy way to stop pornography provided you follow the instructions you'll find that stopping
• 179:00 - 179:30 ranges from relatively easy to enjoyable all you have to do is do things number one make the decision that you are never going to watch pornography again and number two don't mope about it rejoice now at this point you're probably asking why the need for the rest of the book why couldn't you have just said that in the first place well the answer is that you'd have eventually moped about it and consequently changed your decision you've probably already done that many
• 179:30 - 180:00 times before as said already pornography is a subtle Sinister trap the main problem with stopping isn't the dopamine addiction which is certainly a problem but not the primary one it's the brainwashing therefore it is necessary to destroy all the myths and delusions first understand your enemy know their tactics and you'll easily defeat them what follows is an account of Allen Carr's experience quitting smoking and other extremely controlling addiction
• 180:00 - 180:30 having spent large chunks of my life suffering black depression while attempting to quit upon finally escaping I went straight to zero without a bad moment it was enjoyable even through the withdrawal period and have never had the slightest bangs since on the contrary it was one of the most wonderful things that's happened in my life now here's an account of the author who wrote this book about pornography and his attempt quitting my final attempt was different like all users nowadays the problem had been
• 180:30 - 181:00 given serious thought in my mind up to then after failing it was routine to console myself with the thought that it would be easier next time it had never occurred to me that I'd have to go on this way for the rest of my life that thought filled me with horror and I began thinking very deeply about the subject rather than firing up the browser subconsciously you know without thinking about it I instead analyzed my feelings and confirmed what I already knew I was not enjoying pornography I found it
• 181:00 - 181:30 filthy and disgusting I started looking at non-users living in other parts of the world or older people who never got to know these tube sites up until then I had always regarded non-users of pornography as wishy-washy unsociable finicky people however examining them when they appeared they appeared to be if anything stronger and more relaxed they appeared to be able to cope with the stresses and strains of life and seem to enjoy social functions more than porn users they certainly had more Sparkle and zest to them
• 181:30 - 182:00 I started talking to ex users up to that point I'd always regarded them as being forced to give up for health or religious reasons and they were always secretly longing for a harem visit now a few did say you get the odd pangs but there's so few and far between they aren't worth bothering about but most of them instead said miss it you must be joking life's never felt better even their failures were fall forwards for them they did not condemn themselves and unconditionally accepted instead
• 182:00 - 182:30 like a coach will accept a mistake by a genuinely golden player talking to ex-users destroyed another myth I'd always had in my mind that there was an inherent weakness within me until it dawned on me that all go through this private nightmare basically I said to myself scores of people are stopping right now and leading perfectly happy lives I didn't need to do it before I started and I can remember having to work hard to get used to this film so why do I need it now in any event I did not enjoy pornography
• 182:30 - 183:00 hating the entire filthy ritual and didn't want to spend the rest of my life in slavery to this disgusting addiction I then said this to myself whether you like it or not you've completed your last session I knew right from that point that I never have another session again I wasn't expecting it to be easy actually just the reverse I fully believe that I'd signed up for months of black depression and spending the rest of my life having the occasional bad instead it has been absolute Bliss right
• 183:00 - 183:30 from the start it took me a long time to work out why it had been so easy and why I hadn't suffered those terrifying withdrawal pangs the reason is that they don't exist it's a doubt and uncertainty that creates packs the beautiful truth is that it's easy to stop pornography it's only indecision and moping that makes it difficult even while addicted users can go for relatively long periods at certain times without it it's only when you want it but can't have it that you suffer
• 183:30 - 184:00 therefore the key to making it easy is to make stopping certain and final not hoping but knowing you've kicked it having made the right decision never doubt or question it in fact just the reverse always Rejoice the fact you quit if you can be certain from the start it'll be easy okay but how can you be certain from the start well that's why the rest of the book is necessary there are certain essential points that are necessary to get clear
• 184:00 - 184:30 in your mind before you start number one you gotta realize that you can achieve it there is nothing different about you and the only person who can make you watch is yourself not that porn star never in their Wildest Dreams having thought of themselves as being used for reducing virility number two there is absolutely nothing to give up on the contrary there are enormous positive gains to be made not only that but you'll be healthier and have more time on your hands and you'll enjoy the good times more and be less
• 184:30 - 185:00 miserable during the bad number three there is no such thing as a single Peak or visit pornography is drug addiction and a chain reaction by moaning about the odd visit you'll only be needlessly punishing yourself number four see pornography not as a boys will be boys habit that might injure you but as drug addiction face up to the fact that whether you like it or not you've got that disease it won't go away because you bury your head in the sand remember that like all crippling
• 185:00 - 185:30 diseases it not only lasts for a lifetime but gets exponentially worse the easiest time to cure is now and number five separate the disease the neurological addiction to dopamine from the mindset of being a user or not all users if given the opportunity to go back to the time before they became hooked would jump at that opportunity but you have that opportunity today don't even think about it as giving up
• 185:30 - 186:00 on making the final decision that you've had your last visit you'll already be a non-user a user is one of those poor wretches going through life destroying themselves with pornography a non-user is someone who doesn't once you've made that final decision you've already achieved your objective rejoice in the fact you've passed the test don't sit around moping and waiting for the chemical addiction to go get out and enjoy life immediately life is marvelous even when you're addicted and each day will get so much better when

• 197:30 - 198:00 they try and get through each day hoping that eventually they'll just forget about it it's like not being able to sleep the more you worry about it the harder it becomes in any event you won't be able to forget about it for the first few days the little monster will keep reminding you and you won't be able to avoid it while there are still laptops smartphones and magazines around you love constant reminders the point being that you have no need to forget since nothing bad is happening in fact something marvelous is happening and even if you're thinking about it a thousand times a day Savor each moment
• 198:00 - 198:30 and remind yourself of how marvelous it is to be free again remind yourself of the sheer Joy of not having to torture yourself anymore as said previously you'll find that pangs become moments of pleasure being surprised at how quickly you'll then forget about pornography whatever you do do not doubt your decision once you start to doubt you'll start to mope and they'll get worse instead use that moment of moping and convert it into a boost if the cause is depression then remind
• 198:30 - 199:00 yourself that pornography was causing it if you're forwarded it you were all by a friend take pride in saying I'm happy to say I don't need that anymore this will hurt them but when they see it isn't bothering you they'll be halfway to joining you remember you have incredibly powerful reasons for stopping the first place remind yourself of the costs and ask yourself if you really want to risk the malfunction of your body mind and the simple fact that you'll be living under a spell for the rest of your life being mindful of the little Monster's efforts to minimize the hazards and
• 199:00 - 199:30 above all remember the feeling is only temporary and every moment is a moment closer to your goal some users feel they'll love to spend the rest of their lives reversing automatic triggers in other words they believe the love to go through their lives kidding themselves so they don't need pornography through use of psychology this isn't so remember that The Optimist sees the bottle as half full the pessimist sees it as half empty but in the case of pornography the bottle is empty and the user sees it as full there
• 199:30 - 200:00 are zero advantages to using internet pornography it's the user who's been brainwashed to think there are once you start telling yourself that you don't need or want pornography in a very short time you won't even need to say it seeing the beautiful truth yourself it's the last thing you need to do but make sure it isn't the last thing you do chapter 23 just one little Peak this is the undoing of many using the willpower method they'll go through three or four days and then have the odd Peak to guide
• 200:00 - 200:30 them over they don't realize that devastating effect this has on their morale for most users their first peek at the tube site Iran was not as good as sex with a real person the clips that are clean are few and far between giving their conscious mind a boost thinking good that wasn't entirely all that enjoyable I'm losing the urge and I'm not into that shocking stuff while in fact the reverse is the case get it clear in your mind that enjoyment of orgasm was not the reason you quit pornography if users were there for
• 200:30 - 201:00 orgasm alone they never watch more than one clip the only reason why you needed born was feeding that little monster just think after being starred for four days how precious that one Peak must have been to it your conscious mind is unaware but the fix your body received is communicated to your subconscious and all your sound preparation will be undermined there will be a little voice in the back of your mind saying that in spite of all Logic the sessions are precious and you want another one
• 201:00 - 201:30 that little Peak is two damaging effects first it keeps the little monster alive in your body and second worse it keeps the big monster alive in your mind if you had the last Peak it'll be easier to have the next one pornography is a mousetrap without cheese only poison using willpower you have to convince yourself not to grab the cheese but with this method you'll be able to see the poison you don't need to avoid it you just don't go into it
• 201:30 - 202:00 above all remember just one Peak is how people get into the addiction in the first place chapter 24 will it be harder for me there are infinite combinations of factors determining how easily each individual user will quit to start with each of us has our own character career personal circumstances timing metabolism Etc certain professions may make it harder than others but providing the brainwashing is removed this doesn't have to be so take the following few
• 202:00 - 202:30 examples occasionally it is difficult for members of the medical profession we think it should be easier for doctors because they're more aware of the effects but although this supply has more forceful reasons for stopping it doesn't make it any easier to accomplish the reasons are as follows first the constant awareness of the health risks creates fear one of the conditions under which we feel we need to relieve the withdrawal pegs second a doctor's work is exceedingly stressful and they're usually unable to relieve the additional stress of
• 202:30 - 203:00 withdrawal pangs while working and third they have the additional stress of guilt feeling that they should be setting an example for the rest of the population this puts more pressure on them and increases the feeling of deprivation after a hard day at work where their stress is momentarily relieved by pornography that session becomes incorrectly attached to the relief experienced due to this misassociation of ideas pornography gets credit for the whole situation suddenly becoming very precious upon quitting and going through withdrawal pains this is a form of
• 203:00 - 203:30 casual user and applies to any situation where the user is forced to abstain for lengthy periods Under The Willpower method the user is miserable because they're being deprived and not enjoying the tiredness and sleep that comes after a session their sense of loss is greatly increased however if you can first remove the brainwashing and moping regarding porn the break and sleep can still be enjoyed even while the body is craving the amine transmitters serotonin norepinephrine and dopamine another typical situation is boredom
• 203:30 - 204:00 particularly when combined with periods of stress typical examples are students and single parents work being stressful yet monotonous during an attempt to stop on the willpower method the single person is long periods in which they move about their loss which in turn increases feelings of depression again this can be easily overcome if your frame of mind is correct don't worry that you're continually reminded that you've stopped pornography use such moments to rejoice in the fact that you're ridding yourself of the evil monster
• 204:00 - 204:30 if you have a positive frame of mind these patterns will become moments of pleasure remember any user regardless of age sex intelligence or profession can find it easy and enjoyable to stop provided you follow all the instructions section 24.1 primary reasons for failure there are two primary reasons for failure the first is the influence of external stimuli a commercial online news article internet browsing Etc they find themselves in a weak moment or even become jealous when seeing Intimacy
• 204:30 - 205:00 in Social scenarios the topic has already been discussed at length use the moment to remind yourself there's no such thing as one visitor Peak rejoice in the fact that you've broken the chain of mental slavery remember that the user envies you and you should feel pity for them because they need it the other reason is having a bad day get it clear in your mind before you start that whether you're a user or not you'll have good and bad days it rains for both the pope and the murder life is relative and you can't have UPS without doubts the
• 205:00 - 205:30 issue with the willpower method is that as soon as the user has a bad day they begin moping for a visit to the Haram which further compounds the issue the non-user is better equipped to handle stresses and strains not only physically but mentally if you have a bad day during the withdrawal period take it on the shin remind yourself that bad days existed when you were addicted otherwise you wouldn't have decided to stop instead of moping about it recognize it instead okay so today is not so good but porn won't cure it tomorrow will be
• 205:30 - 206:00 better and at least I've got a marvelous bonus I've kicked that awful addiction when you're a porn user you have to block your mind to pornographies and negatives users never have brain fog they're just a bit down when you're having life's inevitable troubles and you experience at out of wanting pornography are you happy and cheerful of course you aren't once you've stopped the tendency is blaming everything and anything that goes wrong on the fact you've stopped if work stresses you out you think at times like these I would
• 206:00 - 206:30 have had a session now this is true but the important thing that's forgotten is that pornography didn't solve the problem and you're simply punishing yourself by moping for illusory crutches you're creating an impossible situation miserable because you can't masturbate to porn it will be even more miserable if you do you know you've made the correct decision by stopping pornography so why punish yourself by doubting your decision remember a positive mental approach is essential always chapter 25 substitutes
• 206:30 - 207:00 some examples of substitutes include restricting to porn magazines static internet images porn diets Etc do not use any of them they may get harder not easier if you do get a Pang and use a substitute it will just prolong the pack making it harder what you're really saying is that you need pornography to fill the void which you don't it'll be like giving in to a hijacker or a child's tantrum just keeping the pangs coming and prolonging torture in any event the substitutes won't relieve the
• 207:00 - 207:30 pegs your craving is for certain neurotransmitters in the brain and all it'll do is keep you thinking about pornography remember these points number one there is no substitute for True pornography number two you don't need pornography it's not food it's poison when the pangs come remind yourself that it's users who suffer withdrawal pangs not non-users see them for what they are another evil of the drug they are the death of the monster and three internet pornography creates
• 207:30 - 208:00 the void it doesn't fill it the quicker you teach your brain that you don't need to watch the sooner you'll be free in particular avoid anything that resembles pornography like men's magazines movies romance novels and commercials this isn't being closed-minded it's okay to talk about romance and sex but not pornography there is always a way to find when and where to discriminate it's true that a small proportion of users who attempt to quit using soft core pornography or porn diets do succeed
• 208:00 - 208:30 from their own perspectives and attribute their success to such use however they quit in spite of their use and not because of it it's unfortunate that many still recommend these measures now this is unsurprising because if you don't fully understand the porn trap a diet or a soft substitute sounds like a very logical solution it's based on the belief that when you attempt to quit pornography you have two very powerful enemies to defeat first is Breaking the Habit and second is surviving those terrible physical withdrawal Banks now if you have two enemies to defeat it's
• 208:30 - 209:00 sensible not to fight them simultaneously but one at a time so the theory goes that when you first stop using pornography you cut down to once a week or use safe porn then once that habit is broken gradually reduce the supply thus tackling each enemy separately now that sounds logical but it's based on incorrect information pornography is not a habit but a dopamine addiction and the actual pain from withdrawal is almost imperceptible what you're trying to achieve when quitting is killing both the monsters in
• 209:00 - 209:30 your body and brain as quickly as possible all substitution techniques do is prolong the little Monster's life you don't want them to live and in turn this prolongs the brainwashing easy peasy makes it easy to quit immediately killing the brainwashing before your final session the little monster will soon be dead and even while it's dying it'll be no more of a problem than it was when you were a user just think how can you possibly cure addiction to a drug through recommending the same drug there are many stories online about those who've quit using
• 209:30 - 210:00 hardcore internet pornography but are now hooked on safe Alternatives having fallen for their little monsters justifications don't be fooled by the fact that safe porn isn't awful so was the first high-speed clip all substitutes have exactly the same effects as any pornography some users quitting even begin eating but although the empty feeling of wanting a session is indistinguishable from Hunger for food one won't satisfy the other in fact if there's anything that's designed to make you want pornography it's stuffing
• 210:00 - 210:30 yourself full of food as previously explained porn diets and safe porn will only put you in the middle of the tug of war with resistance to Temptation being so annoying that you'll feel relieved visiting your favorite online her app the chief evil of substitutes is prolonging the real problem brainwashing do you need a substitute for the flu when it's over of course you don't by saying that you need a substitute for porn in your mind what you're really saying is that you're making a sacrifice the depression associated with the will
• 210:30 - 211:00 Paramount that is caused by the fact the user believes they're making a sacrifice all you're doing is substituting one problem for another there is no pleasure in stuffing yourself with food cigarettes or alcohol you'll just get fat miserable and in no time at all you'll be back on the drug casual users find it difficult to dismiss the belief they're being deprived of the little reward like those who aren't allowed to go online during a period of time during travel or a family event Etc some say I wouldn't know how to unwind if it weren't for pornography
• 211:00 - 211:30 well that just proves the point often the break is taken not because the user needs or even wants it but because the addict which is what they are desperately needs to scratch the itch remember the boring sessions were never genuine rewards they were equivalent to wearing tight shoes in order to feel the pleasure of taking them off so if you feel that you must have a little reward let that be your substitute while you're working wear shoes or underwear a size too small and don't dare allow yourself to remove them until you have your break
• 211:30 - 212:00 then experience the wonderful moment of relaxation and satisfaction when they're removed perhaps you'll feel that would be rather stupid and you're absolutely right it can be difficult to visualize while still in the Trap but that's what users effectively do it's also hard to visualize that soon you won't need that little reward and that you'll regard friends who are still in the Trap with genuine pity and wonder why they can't see the point however if you continue kidding yourself the online harem was a genuine reward or
• 212:00 - 212:30 that you need a substitute you'll feel deprived and miserable the chances are that you'll end up falling through the disgusting trap again if you need a genuine break like Housewives teachers doctors and other workers all do you'll soon be enjoying that break even more because you won't have to addict yourself remember that you don't need a substitute the bangs are a craving for dopamine and will soon be gone let that be your prop for the next few days and enjoy ridding your body and mind of slavery and dependence
• 212:30 - 213:00 chapter 26 should I avoid Temptation situations the advice has been direct so far and has asked you to treat it as instruction rather than suggestion there are sound practical reasons for this advice and those reasons have been backed up by thousands of case studies on the question of whether or not to try and avoid Temptation This isn't the case each user will need to decide for themselves however two helpful suggestions can be made to assist you through the process it's fear of future
• 213:00 - 213:30 withdrawal pangs that keeps using pornography for the remainder of our lives and this fear consists of two distinct phases phase one is how can I survive without born the Spheres the panicky feeling the user gets when they're single or have an asexual uninterested or unavailable partner the fear isn't caused by withdrawal pangs but it's a psychological fear of dependency of being unable to survive without sex and orgasm it Peaks when on the verge of quitting when your withdrawal pangs are at their lowest it's the fear of the
• 213:30 - 214:00 unknown the sort of fear that people have when they're learning to dive the diving board is one foot high but it feels six feet high the water is six feet deep but it appears one foot deep it takes courage to launch itself convinced you're gonna smash your head the launching is the hardest part but if you find the courage to do it the rest is easy this explains why many strong-willed users have never attempted to stop or can survive for only a few days when they do in fact there are some uses on porn diets who upon deciding to
• 214:00 - 214:30 stop actually binge and escalate the harsher Clips more quickly than if they hadn't decided to stop the decision causes Panic which is stressful and triggers a cue to take a trip to the harem but now you can't have one which leads to thoughts of deprivation compounding your stress the trigger activates quickly when the fuse blows and you fire up the browser don't worry the Panic is just psychological it's the fear that you're dependent the beautiful truth is that you aren't even when you're still
• 214:30 - 215:00 addicted don't panic and launch yourself phase two is longer term fear this is long term involving fear that certain situations in the future won't be enjoyable or you won't be able to cope with trauma without pornography don't worry if you can launch yourself off the diving board you'll find the opposite to be the case the avoidance of Temptation itself falls into two categories number one goes something like I'll subscribe to a porn diet of once in four days I'll feel confident knowing I can go online if it
• 215:00 - 215:30 gets difficult if I fail it's okay I'll just add additional days to my next cycle the failure rate with people doing this is far higher than those quitting altogether this is mainly due to the fact that you're having a bad moment during the withdrawal period it's easy to hop on the browser and visit the Harem with the above excuses if you have the indignity of clearly breaking your own rules like a shattered glass window you're more likely to overcome the Temptation in any event the bang would have probably already have passed if
• 215:30 - 216:00 you'd have delayed it however the main reason for the high failure rate in these cases is that the user didn't feel completely committed to stopping the first place remember the first two Essentials to succeed certainty and isn't it marvelous that I don't need porn anymore in either case why on Earth do you need a session if you still need to visit your Harem re-read the book something hasn't quite gelled take the time to kill the big brainwashing monster in your mind Stone dead the second is should I avoid stressful
• 216:00 - 216:30 or social occasions during withdrawal period in the case of stressful situations yes there's no sense putting undue pressure on yourself in the case of social events like bars or clubs the advice is the reverse go out and enjoy yourself straight away you don't need sex or the propagative side of sex when you're addicted to pornography go out and rejoice the fact you don't have to have sex or propagate of sex it'll quickly prove to you the beautiful truth that life is much better without
• 216:30 - 217:00 these pressures just think of how much better it'll be when the little monster has left you together with those needy thoughts chapter 27 the moment of Revelation usually within three weeks post Escape ex-users experience the moment of Revelation the sky appears to become brighter and it's the moment when the brainwashing ends completely when instead of telling yourself you don't need to watch porn you suddenly realize that the last thread is broken and you can enjoy the rest of your life without
• 217:00 - 217:30 ever needing it again it's also from this point that you usually start looking at other users as objects of pity quitters using the willpower method don't normally experience this moment because although they're glad to be X users they continue moving through life believing they're making some sort of sacrifice the more you were addicted the more marvelous this moment is and it lasts a lifetime while there are many joys in life it's often impossible to recapture the actual feeling of
• 217:30 - 218:00 experiencing them the joy of not having to watch porn anymore is different however if feeling low and needing a boost remind yourself of how lovely it is not to be hooked on that awful addiction many listed as one of the greatest events of their lives in most cases the moment of Revelation takes place not after three weeks but after a few days of quitting in my own case it happened before finishing my last Hiram visit I'm sure many of the readers here before they even got to the end of the chapters would say something like you need it say
• 218:00 - 218:30 another word I can see it all so clearly I know I'll never need born again based on the feedback received this happens frequently ideally if you follow all the instructions and understand the psychology completely it should happen to you immediately while it is stated that it takes around five days for noticeable physical withdrawal to go in about three weeks for our next user to get completely free such guidelines can actually cause two problems the first being that the suggestion is implanted in people's
• 218:30 - 219:00 minds that the leftists suffer between five days and three weeks the second is that the X User tens of ink if I can survive for five days or three weeks I can expect a real boost at the end of that period however they may have five Pleasant days or three Pleasant weeks and then they're followed by disastrous days that strike anyone which have nothing to do with addiction but are caused by other factors in our lives then our ex-user who's been waiting for the moment of Revelation experiences depression instead it could destroy

• 228:30 - 229:00 start again do not fall for that trap no matter how long you've stopped or how confident you are you're never going to become hooked again make it a rule for life to not watch pornography for any reason resist the Illusions and innuendos in the media and remember how they're pushing their image of openness by bringing pornography into the mainstream unaware that pornography and compulsive masturbation are killers of relationships and of the personal sense of well-being for a huge number of men and increasing numbers of women remember
• 229:00 - 229:30 that the first Peak or visit will do nothing for you you have no withdrawal Banks to relieve and it will make you feel awful what it'll do is put the pleasure of the dopamine rush into your mind and brain and little voice at the back of your mind will be telling you that you want another one then you've got the choice of being miserable for a while or starting the whole filthy chain again chapter 29 feedback the war isn't against users but the porn industry trap and its wage for the simple reason that I enjoy waging it
• 229:30 - 230:00 every time I hear about a user escaping from the prison I get a feeling of immense pleasure but this pleasure hasn't been without considerable frustration mainly caused by two categories of porn user in spite of the warnings in the previous chapter I'm continually surprised by the number of those who find it easy to stop yet later get hooked and find they can't succeed the next time it's like finding someone up to their neck in a swamp and about to go under you help pull them out and they're grateful but then six months later they
• 230:00 - 230:30 dive straight back into the swamp users who find it easy to stop and start again pose a special problem however when you get free please please don't make the same mistake they believe such people start again because they're still hooked and are missing the dopamine in fact they find stopping so easy that they lose their fear of pornography they think to themselves I can have an obsession and even if I do get hooked again I'll find it easy to stop I'm afraid it just doesn't work that way because it's easy to stop pornography
• 230:30 - 231:00 but it's impossible to control the addiction the one thing that is essential to stopping pornography is not using it people usually come back to pornography because they misunderstand the easy and easy peasy imagine someone sitting on the cold concrete floor of a freezing room on the wall opposite to them there's a window showing a perfect spring day outside trees gently swaying birds chirping right next to an unlocked door
• 231:00 - 231:30 does it take any willpower getting out of that freezing room no he's escaping any harder than staying of course not in fact it's a little easier because of the body moving why would anyone in their right mind put themselves in such a situation causing themselves months or years of frustration unless they were tricked easy peasy pushes aside the curtains so the user can see outside clearly and removes delusions on how terrible outside can be and how comfortable the
• 231:30 - 232:00 user is in the room now there's another category of frustrating users and these are those two fronting to make the attempt to stop or when they do they find it a great struggle the main difficulties with these users appear to be the following first is fear of failure there's no disgrace in Failure but not trying is plain stupidity look at it this way you're hiding from nothing the worst thing that can happen is that you fail in which case you're no worse off than you are now just think of how wonderful it will be to succeed if you don't make
• 232:00 - 232:30 the attempt you're guaranteed failure fear of pain and being miserable don't worry about it just think what awful things could happen to you if you never watch pornography again absolutely nothing terrible things will happen if you continue reread the notes on Pascal's wager in any case the Panic is caused by dopamine and will soon be gone the greatest gain is being rid at that fear do you really believe that users are prepared to have fading penetrations
• 232:30 - 233:00 unreliable sexual performance or the illusory pleasure that they get from porn if you find yourself getting panicky deep breathing can help if you're with other people and they're getting you down escape from them and go to the garage or an empty office or somewhere if you feel like crying don't be ashamed crying is Nature's Way of relieving tension and no one has ever had a good cry without feeling better afterwards one of the awful things we do to young people is conditioning them not to cry you can see them trying to fight back the tears but watch the jaw grinding
• 233:00 - 233:30 away we teach ourselves not to show emotion but we're not meant to bottle them up inside scream shout have a tantrum kick something regard or struggle as a boxing match that you can't lose a boxing match against the monsters in your body nobody can stop time every moment that passes that little monster inside you is dying enjoy your inevitable victory then there's not following the instructions incredibly some users say the method doesn't work and then the describer they ignored not one
• 233:30 - 234:00 instruction but practically all of them for clarity these are listed at the end of this chapter then there's misunderstanding the instructions and the chief problems with this appear to be I can't stop thinking about pornography which of course you can't and if you dry you'll create a phobia becoming miserable it's like trying to get sleep at night the more you try the harder it becomes it doesn't matter if you think about pornography for 90 of your life it's what you're thinking that's important if you're thinking oh I'd love to look at it again or when will I be free you'll just be miserable
• 234:00 - 234:30 if you're instead thinking yippee I'm free you'll be happy then another misunderstanding is when will the little porn monster die the dopamine flush leaves your body very rapidly but it's impossible to tell when your body will see you suffering from the physical sensation of dopamine withdrawal that empty insecure feeling is identical to normal hunger depression or stress all pornography does is increase the level of it this is why users who stop using the willpower method are never quite
• 234:30 - 235:00 sure if they've kicked it even after the body is seized suffering dopamine withdrawal and if they're suffering from normal hunger or stress at a moment the rain is telling them that is a valid reason to claim their entitled session the point being that you don't have to wait for the craving to go since it's so slight that we don't even know it's there only knowing it as a feeling of wanting when you leave the dentist do you wait for your jaw to stop aching of course you don't you get on with your life even though your jaw is still aching you're related it's over
• 235:00 - 235:30 don't wait for withdrawals to leave because you'll create doubt by constantly asking yourself how long will this take am I even free if I don't feel any different fear is the actual Pang therefore waiting for life to get better after quitting will create doubt withdrawal is imperceptible unless you fear it and the exponential improvements to neurology are slow so if you wait to feel different you'll feel like nothing is happening creating doubt then there's the moment Revelation hasn't arrived yet another
• 235:30 - 236:00 misunderstanding of the instructions if you wait on it you're just creating another phobia I won't stop for three weeks on The Willpower method chatting with an old friend he asked me how I was getting on and I replied I've survived three weeks and so he queried what do you mean you've survived three weeks and I clarified I've gone three weeks without pornography and he said what are you gonna do survive the rest of your life what are you waiting for you've done it you're a non-user
• 236:00 - 236:30 I thought he's absolutely right what am I waiting for unfortunately due to lack of understanding the Trap I was soon back in but the point was noted you become a non-user when closing your browser the important thing is to be a happy non-user from the start another misunderstanding is I'm still craving porn then you're being very stupid how can you claim that you want to be a non-user and then say you want pornography that's a contradiction if you say that you want pornography you're saying you want to be a user non-users don't want to visit the disgusting tube

• 238:30 - 239:00 then some people have a good week month six months but then go back into the Trap remember fear is the Pang itself giving into a Pang generates more fear feeding the weakened little monster and succeeding and spooking the non-user into thinking you're hooked for life in reality their conceptualization of the brainwashing hasn't changed but they've given dopamine to the thought process this is by definition falling forward but is a failure to follow instructions understand which one it is below and
