Can I look at stuff that gives me dopamine release but not porn

As long as you dont get hard.

 

That is crazy, you sure you don’t have a foot fetish? I guess if you don’t get hard and Fap, it’s okay.

 

Try to replace it with activities you value more. You could even start by writing what your core values are, and what activities would be in line with them.

One example for me... I value my health. So I commit to exercising at least twice a week, despite not wanting to.

You said it yourself, you have an addiction to sneaker videos. But what else would you rather do with your time?

The other night I was at a friends place and he wanted to watch three movies in a row. What's that, 5 hours maybe. I thought my friend has an addiction, and is over doing a very normal recreational activity, that ends up cutting into sleep time.

My point is, you can have addictions that are nowhere near as bad as porn. But if you try to minimise them, and at the same time get more valuable activities in your life, you will recover better yes!
