Hi all,
I try to read and understand more and more about problematic pornography use and came across different frameworks.
On the one hand, I catch myself getting annoyed by these academic discussions bc I feel like at this point ANY public recognition with whatever pathway is better than none.
However, for those of us who are interested in the research aspect of conceptualising and thus determining how to approach this issue, I would be curious to hear if you have the feeling that problematic porn use rather represents an addiction or a compulsive disorder.
For clarification the main difference would emerge in how to manage, treat, and "heal" the problem.
Either way, I also found this quote very suitable:
"Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken."
- Warren Buffet
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
Best wishes
