What Porn Is Doing to Your Sex Drive and Relationship
Porn addiction and compulsive porn use can affect sexual desire, relationships, intimacy, and emotional regulation. This episode looks at how pornography can shift from occasional use into something tied to stress relief, masturbation, secrecy, control, and increasingly specific sexual stimulation.
We also look at desire narrowing, difficulty staying aroused with a real partner, hiding porn use, and the difference between casual pornography use and a pattern that is starting to interfere with sex, relationships, work, sleep, or personal values. The goal is to assess porn use without shame, moralizing, or minimizing the consequences.
