Weighing the benefits and disadvantages of porn use

Podcast: Download

I have struggled with my weight since I stopped doing manual labor for a living. I love food; I love taste.

There were times when I lost a lot of weight. While I haven’t always had my weight under control, it’s been 15 years since I came within 50 pounds of my all-time high. When I lose weight, it’s because I don’t like weight limiting my body. To me, the negative effects of overeating outweigh the benefits of overeating.

You will stop using pornography when you believe that the negative effects of using it outweigh the benefits of using it.

Therefore, a key step in getting rid of porn is to understand why you continue to use it. What benefits do you get?

Mostly, we use porn to escape. We use it to heal our pain and lessen the pain of reality. Having a high sexual desire distracts us and makes us feel better. It’s better to get horny and come. This is why we use pornography.

Once you’ve seen the benefits of porn, it’s time to allow yourself to see the negatives. Maybe admit that this is a sin that God cares about. Or admit that it hurts your wife and will always hurt you. Or realize it’s only hurting your sex life.

Nothing I, your wife, or anyone else says can stop you. But if you honestly weigh the pros and cons, it should be fine.
