Man maybe it's because I've been a heroine addict in my past (almost 10 years sober), but I can tell you that's absolute nonsense. It does not have all the negative effects of drug addiction lol. I can tell you with utmost confidence that they're not even remotely comparable.

If I can't jack off then it's got nothing to do with porn. It's "your brain on occasional masturbation." Sorry, like I said, im incredibly skeptical of this anti jerking movement.

I appreciate you sharing what you've read, really lol.

I hear you, congrats on being sober but you are right, no comparison! The whole book is about porn use so I'm probably wrong about the no jacking. If it was mentioned I presume it was a temporary measure to reset your body. Fuck knows, my memory on what was said is clearly hazy!

Turns out the author did a Ted talk on the subject. I haven't watched it but here's the link in case you want to see what he says. Whatever is said it will make more sense than what I'm writing!! https://youtu.be/wSF82AwSDiU
