I fucking hate Kanye West. Can you imagine having a father who parades his wife around naked and what that would do to you as a little girl? People were always critical of Kim Kardashian because of her past and her ties to Balenciaga especially when it came to her daughters, but Kanye West the anti-semitic pornography addict always got praised for “protecting his girls”. Give me a fucking break.

I'm dealing with some bad things right now.

I'm dealing with pornography addiction. I'm trying to get away from anything that might tempt me to go down a path that the holy ghost cannot follow. If you're so inclined, please pray for me, and also any interaction on my blog or discord to keep me from being lonely or bored would be appreciated as well!

If I recently blocked a friend of yours or something, It's nothing personal! I'm just trying to curate my experience on Tumblr to help me deal with my own issues. Suggestions on how to do that better are welcome!

Also my DMs are open for anyone who wants to just... talk about similar issues. It's good not to try and deal with these things alone.

Why argue in relationships

Arguments are a natural part of any relationship. The absence of arguments is sometimes a bigger cause of concern. When working with couples in relationship counselling, I often find that a couple’s ability to resolve arguments becomes the criteria for predicting their relationship success.

Understanding arguments – why they happen, how they happen and what to do about them can help have healthier arguments and lead to better relationships. Relationship counselling is often helpful in doing this. In this article, I explore why couples argue.

The difference – attraction or irritation

Two people from different backgrounds, different upbringing, perhaps different culture or micro culture, perhaps different gender, and many other differences are bound to clash at some point. It is inevitable.

The difference between the two partners is part of the attraction at the start of the relationship. The introvert likes being in a relationship with the extrovert. The thinker likes being in a relationship with the explorer and so on.

Over time, the attraction is replaced with irritation. The introvert returns to its comfort zone and the extrovert wants to go out more. And they get irritated with each other over the inability of the other person to see the world from their eyes.

Content and Process

The couple don’t know how to separate the content from the process. Relationship counselling is again very helpful in helping the couple see this. Content is the subject of the argument, and process is what the what the argument is really about. For example, the argument may be about who loads the dishwasher, but it is really about the unfairness of the workload one person might feel.

Role of relationship counselling

With not enough objectivity in the relationship, it is difficult to separate content from process. You end up pulling your hair out because you get caught up in the right way to do things and the wrong way to do things. Rather than understanding each other and collaborating on a solution that works for both, the argument gets polarised. Whatever you were arguing about gets lost when you feel unheard and ununderstood. Relationship counselling can bring objectivity to your conversations and help you understand each other.

How I can help you

I can help you with relationship counselling needs for couples and families in my office in Central London and in West London. I also provide relationship counselling online on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and other mediums.

We Need More Than Misdemeanors to Beat Addiction

Peer Support Specialists Can Fill Gaps in Outreach and Prevention Oregon has reversed course on decriminalizing drug possession. That may get drug users off the streets, but not off drugs. The threat of a misdemeanor isn’t likely to prevent someone from getting a fix to avoid withdrawal, experiment with drugs or use them in desperation to cope with severe pain. In addition to recriminalizing…

From Yachting to Dubai Porta Potty: The Overlooked Role of Money Addiction in Prostitution

Can we talk about money addiction in prostitution?

In anti-prostitution circles, it's often discussed how women get into prostitution through trafficking, grooming, drug addiction, debts, desperation, and similar bad circumstances, but rarely about money addiction. It seems that in our capitalist world, money addiction is seldom addressed and is often viewed either positively or downplayed rather than as a serious addiction. Money addiction (greed for money) is often even seen as an personality trait rather than an addiction. Therefore, many people who are addicted to money don't even recognize their own addiction to it or think it's fine.

Money-addicted individuals exhibit behaviors, such as an insatiable desire for more wealth and possessions, often at the expense of others or to the detriment of their own well-being. So it's really not as harmless as people perceive it to be. Money addiction often stems from a deep-rooted need to compensate for feelings of inadequacy, insecurity, or emotional pain. However, overvaluing money and becoming addicted to it can also be a result of societal conditioning and affirmation from parents and society.

Research shows that most prostituted women don't want to be in the sex trade, and only a small number of women want to be in it. I want to talk about this very small group of women who claim they want to be in it. From what I've noticed, some of those women seem to participate in the sex trade because they are addicted to money and they are often times expensive escorts. These escorts are usually the ones who are advocating for prostitution on various podcasts & Co.

Many already very rich and famous celebrities, as well as popular influencers with a (very) good income, also participate in yachting (escorting on a yacht) or Dubai Porta Potty (traveling to Dubai to get pooped and peed on by wealthy Arab men for large sums of money, it often involves bestiality as well). At this point, it's not even a secret. Yachting, in particular, is constantly talked about. There have been many podcasts and posts all over the internet about rich celebrities and influencers doing it. In fact, it has helped normalize and accept prostitution, and even glamorize it. It has taken away the focus on how prostitution looks for the majority of women and how most women aren't in it because they want to be.

(Trigger Warning - Disgusting Sexual Content:) Let's face it, would you really be willing to have gang bangs for several days to a week with a bunch of (probably) ugly, old guys who don't respect you, want to beat the shit out of you, humiliate you, piss on you, poop in your mouth, and make you have sex with an actual animal (bestiality) in a country where it is illegale (risk of being imprisoned) for €30,000 if you were already financially stable? Would you do the same if you were offered one million euros if you were already a famous celebrity worth €100M? I doubt it, unless you are addicted to money. However, this is what is being offered (30k - 1M) in Dubai Porta Potty for all of those things combined to people who most of the time already have money (influencers and celebrities).

Sure, one could argue that porn has desensitized or even groomed many people to like some of those practices, and the "no kink shaming" crowd has helped normalize it, but still, those are not everyday normal practices, especially bestiality, which is illegal in many countries, including the United Arab Emirates. Even someone who doesn't mind BDSM wouldn't just do all of it with strangers in another country, where it is illegal and they are not really in dire need of money if there isn't an underlying issue (like a money addiction) behind it.

I think this aspect of money addiction is crucial to understand when discussing the complexities of prostitution. The conversation often neglects the psychological and societal factors that drive some women to enter and stay in the sex trade willingly. It's also important to challenge the societal norms that glorify wealth accumulation at any cost. Money addiction really needs to be talked about more often and be taken more seriously.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

vignette and addiction: my takes

(cw & tw: substance addiction, general addiction, mention of sexual themes and pornography, self destructive behavior, anxiety and depression)

vignette is one of my favorite songs on clancy (all of them are, but that's not the point), and as i was watching the livestream i heard tyler mention explicitly that the song was about addiction. and that's a theme i think it's important, and it's good that he brought it to light

while you'd read the lyrics and think the song is clearly about substance abuse, I don't think this is what tyler meant it to be about. not entirely.

the thing about addiction, is that everyone can have it, be in larger or smaller scale. it's like a tick that latches onto your skin but you can't see it or feel it because it numbs your senses.

I've dealt with addiction before (not substance, but adult entertainment on the internet, and then in real life) and i think this to be true: anything can be an addiction. be it a mania like biting your nails or maybe an eating disorder, to spending too much time on certain apps; everything that keeps us enslaved can be hurtful for our health.

we become mindless zombies, we can't see what's around us, we can't think unless it's related to that thing in specific that will bring back the feeling, the comfort. it's desperation for relief, for numbness, for a familiar pain. i see "the vignette" as a metaphor for something you can't always see, but it's there, until it swallows you completely

when i was deep in my addiction, one of the things i couldn't stop thinking about was: "can people see that I'm an addict? am i hiding it well?" the anxiety of wanting to appear normal, like I want struggling, like i wasn't under the control of something so simple and mundane, it consumed me to the point of wanting to isolate myself.

you're always clinging to the promise you won't do it again, you won't let it win, but sometimes you can't. and that's okay. it's a constant fight, a process, and it might never truly go away, but you'll get stronger each time.

the second verse messes with me the most. when you see someone who has openly struggled with addiction, the before and after may surprise you. people who were once so full of good values and confident in themselves "suddenly" let themselves rot away without realizing, or without caring.

i think "where do i go from here" represents the emptiness you feel once you're sober. you feel lost, like you're in the dark and you can't find footing. you want to feel comfortable again, but it never lasts long enough.

and of course "no not me it's for a friend" would be a controversial one. you could say that the hurtful thing you're consuming isn't for you, it's for a friend, but you could also say that about help. i personally like the help one, but i think both can be right. admitting to having a problem is the first and most difficult step in all of the process, you're always so scared of feeling judged that you'd rather pretend it's someone else who has to deal with it. heck, I'm feeling that right now as i write this! sometimes I can't use the right words at all without feeling a chill down my spine, but i believe that it's just like exposure therapy, and I'm sure it will be less and less scary to talk about it as i grow, just like tyler is talking about it now

vignette is a masterpiece, and although I don't and probably won't know for sure whether tyler has dealt with a different kind of addiction like i have, or if he actually is just referring to substance ones and I'm putting my bias into it, I don't care. this song will always have a special meaning to me and i hope it does to everyone else as well:

everyone struggles. we might be ashamed of it sometimes, but we should take pride in our recovery instead. it'll be hard to seek help, but the search party will come.

I understand the support and protection that is pushed for pornography and sex work but at the same time - it feels kind of ridiculous to not see any criticism on how these things are practiced, how they are mass produced and what is involved in that, how recruitment is done, and how violent some of this stuff has gotten over the years and how it can affect some demographics

Impact Of Pornography Addiction on Your Mind| How Porn affects Your Mind

Do you intentionally live in an isolated room in your house to watch porn? Do you use all your internet on porn consumption?do you avoid social gathering to enjoy porn?Hi everyone, in this video you are going to learn how porn affects your mind.Lets begin, According to Wikipedia, Pornography addiction is the scientifically controversial application of an addiction model to the use of pornography. Pornography may be part of compulsive behavior with negative consequences to one’s physical, mental, social, or financial well-being. The World Health Organization has recognized compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD) as an “impulsive control disorder”.It is a major cause of depression, loneliness, relationship problems, and other challenges. If you become addicted to pornography you will experience a loss of friendships, ending of relationships and losing moral values. Both children and adults continue to see porn despite the negative outcomes of porn such as feeling of hopeless, low mood. They lose the control of their mind to stop themselves to engage in this harmful behavior.

Your brain starts to see the porn, drugs, weeds, social media and other artificially generated stimulants as important to survival. Our intense focus on porn annihilates our desire & wants that are not important for survival. You also store huge porn videos on your device to control your emergent urges.You spent countless hours , days thinking about this destructive habit as important survival need.As a result important mechanism in brain gets activated.

Mechanism

You need to understand the mechanism of the bran rewards system so you can fight with this addiction when needed.

Your brain’s reward system is the part that responds to important survival resources. The main component is dopamine- one neurotransmitter of the brain. Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that your body can’t function without. They carry chemical signals from one neuron to the next target cell. The next target cell can be another nerve cell, a muscle cell, or a gland.Important survival resources are food shelter achievements and social achievements. The amount of dopamine released when you encounter a stimulation determines how addictive the stimulus is. The amount of dopamine released when you eat your favorite food is approximately 150% of normal production. The use of nicotine in cigarettes and sexual intercourse increases dopamine production by approximately 200% and 250% of the normal production of dopamine. When you see porn, your dopamine production increases far more than the production of dopamine in the case of sexual intercourse and maintains that production far longer. The addictive drug nicotine shows an initial higher spike and starts to decrease its output much faster than pornography. So as a result different biological processes emerge in your body to maintain that resource. This results in addiction.

So first biological processes sensitization begins.

Sensitization

When high-level dopamine stimulation occurs then sensitization begins. Those scenes of porn become glued to your brain creating highly superior memories that stick to your brain creating a huge desire to crave more of those scenes. Your brain associate the use of porn with phone, laptop, chrome book and isolated places in your home. So they become the triggers. Next time when you experience any of those events, your brain starts to recognize triggers craving for to seek more of sensitization. So you start to fall for that stimulus.

Desensitization

Dopamine is released by synapses and received by receptor sites in general functioning. When receptor sites receive dopamine you experience a feeling of pleasure. Dopamine production increases dramatically when pornography is introduced to the brain. Our brain do not like that over stimulation. It wants a state of homeostasis(a state of balance among all body systems required for body to survive and function correctly). Our brain prevents damage by reducing the ability to receive stimulation. Our brain changes how neurons function by removing receptor sites leading to desensitization.

Going to restaurants with friends, good food, achievements, and dating are some of the major sources of stimulation. These important activities are normal for seeking pleasure. Loss of receptor sites during desensitization alters how a person experiences a normal source of pleasure. Slowly these important activities become less enjoyable for us leading to seeking higher sources of dopamine production such as pornography. If you are addicted to porn you automatically isolate yourself from family friends and intimate partners. You seek less achievements & more isolated place to watch porn. Other non-pornographic sources become useless sources of seeking pleasure. Slowly you start to become addicted to masturbation.

Hypofrontality

Sensitization and desensitization are thrusting force that pushes you toward addiction. Now you are addicted to pornography in addition to masturbation. So work of Hypofrontality is to ensure that addiction to masturbation and porn is stayed. So it is more damaging to your health because you lose control of your conscious willpower to stop this addiction and choose something healthy for you.

The anterior cingulate and orbital frontal cortex, two parts of the brain work in such a way as to discard your reward system to increase dopamine. For example, you want to bunk your college lecture or school to hang out with friends.

This type of behavior increases dopamine levels but there’s also a chance of getting caught by your parents. So our anterior cingulate and orbital frontal cortex stop this kind of act to prevent any hostile unfavorable consequences for us. As a result, we decide not to bunk college or school. This is also the mechanism that helps us to reach our goals and not fall for short-term gratification all the time.

When you repeatedly expose yourself to porn and masturbation you resist your ability to stop it from reoccurring. So our brain tells us to get porn videos & mmasturbation by any means necessary. This is Hypofrontality.

Hypofrontality is the rewiring of the brain’s action to discard the brain’s reward system when an impulse of porn generates in the mind. When you reach this stage you realize that you lose control of your willpower to stop yourself from watching porn. You feel like you are on autopilot mode. you try to stop yourself but the urges inside you starts to disturb your mind and body.

Some of you move from pornography to smoking weed drugs nicotine cocaine amphetamine. Then your morals start to degrade rapidly. Anxiety kicks in. You start to believe that there’s nothing harmful with porn. All those actions which support the fact that porn is bad are judged to be wrong and misinformation to you. That’s why some people avoid monogamous relationship, religious activities, social gatherings,

Altered stress system

Your stress system in the prefrontal cortex of the brain is designed to handle the stress of goals, loved ones, family, friends, and finances. When exposed to porn masturbation and substance abuse, the stress system of our body is seized by it. When triggers of porn and drugs are not being acted on, the body starts releasing stress hormones affecting our heart rate digestion, and blood pressure. So you must react to it by watching porn and smoking weed. So discomfort of altered stress system and stress hormones make it very hard to avoid those addictions.

Role of development of pornography

At some stages, we are more prone to porn addiction and fewer abilities to overpower it. Some of the brain structures are not fully developed and activated before and until the age of 25. The areas of the brain that are supposed to prevent the reward system from getting out of control are not effective for young children. This is why the role of parents is necessary during this age. As the person approaches age 25 his reasoning area/the frontal cortex gets better to determine the negative consequences of his/her addiction behaviors.

Averaged children aged between 9-12 years first start to see porn because of easy access to an internet connection. Some students go to friends’ houses without propersupervision, they start to see porn. They also talk about it at school. School girls start to develop their breasts and curiosity starts to kick in about sexuality. Their brain reward system tells them that porn is highly rewarding and important so a Hypofrontality-like situation develops. The cause is their anterior cingulate and orbital frontal cortex parts are not well developed at this age and are not able to discard the addiction.

So it’s vitally important that the parents ensure that their children get no exposure to porn Or have minimal access to an internet. Living without internet is quite not possible these days. You can install software that blocks harmful websites.

Those addicted children often grow up thinking and feeling weak when unable to break addiction. Children are easy target to porn addiction as they have little mechanism in their disposal to fight addiction on their own.

I know you are fighting all alone and you want to end this addiction. That’s why you are here. If you don’t know your addiction levels then next step is crucial for you.
