In this episode of Recovery Nerd, hosts Jeffrey and Troy tackle a topic that's often brushed under the rug - the impact of internet pornography on addiction. They dive into how the internet has made sexually stimulating content more accessible than ever, creating a minefield for those struggling with sex and porn addiction. Jeffrey and Troy share their personal battles with defining what constitutes 'porn' in this digital age, where even seemingly innocent content can become a trigger.
They explore the concept of 'pseudo porn' - content that isn't explicit but still stimulates addictive behaviour. The hosts reflect on their experiences with social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram, which often blur the lines between acceptable content and triggering material. They discuss the importance of recognising their powerlessness over these triggers and maintaining spiritual fitness to stay on the path of sobriety.

Whether you're dealing with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and strategies to help navigate the challenges of maintaining sobriety in a world saturated with sexualised content.
