Recovery from porn addiction involves leveraging the brain's capacity for neuroplasticity - its ability to form new neural connections in response to changes in behavior. Strategies for overcoming addiction include seeking therapy, engaging in activities that promote dopamine production through healthy avenues (such as exercise or hobbies), and gradually reducing exposure to pornographic content.
The process involves retraining the brain to find pleasure and reward in non-pornographic stimuli, restoring balance to the reward system, and improving overall mental health and cognitive function.
