Episode 69: 3 Things That Keep You Stuck in Porn

May 09, 20222 min read

Whether it’s been 20 years or 20 days since you’ve developed the habit of viewing porn, you don’t have to stay stuck here. As my clients work with me and start learning the basics of overcoming pornography, I’ve noticed a pattern of the same things that keep coming up over and over, and it’s time to address them. 

If overcoming pornography is something that’s left you feeling isolated and confused, know that you’re not alone. The truth is that everyone is facing similar struggles in trying to quit porn, and this week, I’m identifying three things that might be holding you back, rather than propelling you forward.

Join me on this episode as I highlight the three things that are keeping you stuck in porn. You’ll hear why tracking progress by the number of days without porn isn’t effective, the power of learning to examine your thoughts, and why going through the discomfort of your urges doesn’t have to be as miserable as it feels right now.
