How Porn Changes Your Brain
In recent years, discussions around the impact of pornography on mental health and behaviour have gained traction. While many view porn as a harmless form of entertainment, emerging research suggests it can significantly alter brain function and affect relationships.
Neurological Changes:
Dopamine Release: Watching porn triggers a massive release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and reward. Over time, this can lead to desensitization, meaning individuals may require more extreme stimuli to achieve the same level of satisfaction.
Psychological Effects:
Increased Anxiety and Depression: Research has linked high levels of porn consumption with increased symptoms of anxiety and depression. This may stem from the disconnect between fantasy and reality, or from guilt and shame associated with porn use.
