The inevitable moment of compulsive desire

Whether you feel a lot of shame around your porn use or not, you will eventually experience the inevitable moment of compulsive desire. This is that exact moment where you want to go ahead and engage in your compulsive behaviour. This moment comes up because of how your neural pathways are wired, at this point in time. It isn't going to go away through working through feelings of shame or dealing with underlying trauma. However, unfortunately, the rest of the world are continuing to go around in circles trying to fix some mystical "root" of the addiction whilst missing the most important thing of all. The "moment" of compulsive desire is a moment. It takes place here, right now, at this moment. To change your reality, you must make changes in the here and now. In fact, we have no control over the past or the future. We only have control over our choices in the present moment.

As such, the only truly logical approach to addiction recovery is learning the skill of making rational choices in the present moment.

And this skill is not cultivated by looking into the past. Instead, it is developed like most skills - through thorough education and practice. Repetition, over, and over, and over.

Once you have this skill and have experienced the power of using it, you will see where you previously went wrong and will have the opportunity to revel in experiencing complete self-control, making choices you are proud of, moment by moment.
