ok then share some personal experiences regarding your relationships for someone else then, I am sure there are plenty of people reading this thread that do understand your terms to your desired levels

Sure if they ask me I will

Please share a personal experience about how porn negatively impacted a relationship. Thx.

Hey buddy yeah of course.

Basically porn addiction, due to desensitisation, made me withdraw away from people and be miserable. This takes a heavy toll on relationships, both friendships and intimate, as I'm sure you can imagine

I'm going back to sleep…this was fun - can't wait to do it again on day 43

Nah, I can't.


So lemme get this straight, you jerked yourself off into becoming a recluse?

Addictions cause a decline in dopamine (D2) receptors, which is a major aspect of desensitization. Recent Internet addiction brain studies all show the same brain changes as found in substance addicts, including reduced dopamine D2 receptors and dopamine transporters. Dopamine balance is critical for peak social functioning. Indeed, research shows that social anxiety correlates with low dopamine (D2) receptors. The drug-like withdrawal symptoms that recovering users often suffer when they stop are more evidence of an addiction process at work.

Incidentally, porn use has to alter more than just the fundamental addiction pathways (in some brains). It’s striking how frequently porn addicts report chronic sexual dysfunction, which reverses itself as they recover. This doesn’t happen with other addictions. These broader effects may help explain loss of mojo. Could porn addiction, because it hijacks sexuality, have the power to interfere with the brain circuits that govern normal male mating/courting behavior?

Primates, D2 receptors and dominant males:

First question: What’s one primary biological difference between dominant and submissive primates? Dominant primates have higher levels of dopamine D2 receptors. They were not born with higher levels of D2 receptors, rather “becoming” a dominant male caused the increase.
Inducing addiction in these same primates resulted in the same low levels of D2 receptors in all the males.
Second question: During rebooting, are reported increases in confidence, sociability, and motivation related to regaining dopamine D2 receptor or dopamine levels?
Finally, low dopamine signalling has long suspected to be involved in depression. Recently, research confirmed that low dopamine is the main player in depression and low motivation. From the researchers;

“the VTA dopamine circuitry we studied is very similar in both rodents and humans. And we have shown that the neurons in this circuit specifically cause, correct and encode diverse symptoms of depression. This is a significant advance in our understanding of the biological underpinnings of depression and related behaviors,”

The good news is that many former users bloom socially when they allow their dopamine signalling to return to baseline (by skipping intense stimulation for a time). Fears and awkwardness decrease, mood improves, sexual responsiveness increases, colors seem brighter, and life’s subtler pleasures are more fulfilling. Social skills often bubble up naturally—much to the surprise of the recovering users. On the other hand, when they relapse, the familiar symptoms arise again. Eventually, they find a balance that works for them, often without Internet porn (because it’s just too stimulating at a brain-chemical level).

That's a pithy way of putting it haha, little bit more nuanced than that but basically you got it.

Here's a more thorough explanation in case you're interested:

there is zero chance someone addicted to porn from 15-27 writes like this, your brain would be too damaged

Bro you're sweet but you gotta chill my writing is really not great. It's one of the things I'm hoping will improve as I reboot because I used to write a lot better.

But again thank you

are you an ai bot?

serious question

Hahah yeah bro

seriously, a normal person doesn't write like you do on an internet board, let alone a gay dying Indian board.
You can't provide actual personal experiences.
All your answers to questions lack critical thinking and are just regurgitation of stuff from a website.

Yeah I'm definitely the one that lacks critical thinking out of the two of us

Yes, that's correct. I've been trying to have a convo with you but you refuse to provide personal experience

The fact that I'm trying to avoid a convo with you demonstrates that my critical thinking is probably okay

Although, saying that, I'm sure critical thought is impaired during addiction because of hypofrontality so maybe you're onto something

Is it? or is it cause you have no personal experience?

Well an ai couldn't have personal experiences without consciousness now could it?

Congratulations you just made me fail the Turing test
