The Hidden Needs Driving You to Porn
Manage episode 407107627 series 3557836
Have you ever found yourself standing in front of the refrigerator at 12 o’clock at night looking for something to eat, even though you weren’t hungry?
We’ve all been there…
Our relationship with porn is very much the same way.
We’ve adopted porn as a coping mechanism to meet many underlying needs, often, that we are not even aware of.
One of the keys to liberation is learning to identify the needs we’ve been attempting to meet by going to porn, and adopting new ways to meet those needs in healthier ways.
In today’s episode of the ‘P2P Podcast’, I’m joined by ‘Liberation Boot Camp’ graduate, and ‘Noble Council’ member, Max Warren, as we dig into the underlying needs that have been driving us to porn.
In today’s conversation we cover:
- The underlying needs driving us to porn
- Identifying the common non-sexual causes of porn use, such as boredom, loneliness, and lack of purpose
- The ways in which we’ve been using porn to escape and cope with life
- Why our non-sexual triggers are more important than our sexual triggers
- How to identify the needs that have been driving to porn and ways to meet those needs in healthier ways
