What are the effects of porn on the brain of compulsive porn user (MRI scans): Dr Valerie Voon at Cambridge University send normal people and porn addicts into an MRI scanner to find out their brain activities while they watch pornography. For porn addicts, the ventral striatum, the reward centre shows an exaggerated response just like addicts responding to drugs or alcohol. Their brains are twice as active in their ventral striatum. The result shows that porn is addictive.
I'm thinking, thanks to the pandemic, a lot more people are going to start realizing internet porn is addictive.
There is a part of the video that could be a pretty strong trigger, just a warning. Very informative though.
