Getting back in the saddle
I came across YourBrainOnPorn.com after I became aware porn was the reason for my anxiety. Brilliantly- It has helped me a lot get off porn and led me to this site, which is even better! It couldn't be any later, however, since I've lost all my friends, and generally I'm prone to being abused very often. Moreover, porn was responsible for my motivation do disappear, my concentration therefore to diminish and my memory leaving me. Expectedly, my grades lowered- Gone were the days of my A*-A grade performances and into a new time where my motivation was so low, my concentration and attention to work were completely gone and my grades slipped from A*'s to A's to C's and finally then to U's.YBOP has helped me lots. Looking at YBOP, it's got all the relevant facts about the consequences of ''watching porn'' here... (http://yourbrainonporn.com/no-porn-better-working-memory), but what annoys it does not quite talk about the serious impacts of porn onto the mental health of the viewers, nor their lives, more just states the facts without conveying the huge impact of them on millions of people's lives. Moreover it doesn't cover anything like illegal porn, or related topics like shock sites (I don't recommend
looking at since they f***ed me up)... Looking back at that thought that millions of people are affected by PMO'ing and other relating things (Eg- shock sites), I think that YBOP should give a clear, dis-ambiguous message to people that unlike mentioned in (http://yourbrainonporn.com/ejaculation-how-often-for-good-health) that MO is good, instead, that PMO is bad, as people infer from YBOP themselves here, and from their own problems (http://yourbrainonporn.com/no-porn-better-working-memory). This article states that ''subjective arousal while watching porn is the main predictor of degree of problems from Internet sex (as opposed to time spent watching and various other factors)'' which suggests that even MO, without the P is still very damaging- which it is.
Since my grades lowered however, they've picked up back to A's with revision. YBOP and my experience tells us that motivation is key to success as it gives you the concentration and ability to memorise info, which comes from not, or stopping watching any inappropriate site.
