Recap: This step is set up to break three cycles that lead to porn becoming an issue in most peoples’ lives:

-The Shame Cycle: Feeling bad about yourself for a struggle you have leads to disconnecting from healthy habits and healthy people. More negative feelings about yourself grow in the gaps, causing you to push further into a hidden means of escape.
-The Emotional Cycle: Porn often becomes both a cause of and solution for our depressed emotions.
-The Cognitive Cycle: Porn often becomes both a cause of and solution for our anxieties.

How have you seen the Shame Cycle evident in your life? What negative views about yourself have been fueling this struggle?

How was porn talked about during your childhood? Did a trusted adult ever talk to you about it? What other healthy or unhealthy messages did you receive about it?

How have you seen the Emotional Cycle evident in your struggle? How has porn become both a cause of and a solution for some negative emotional states?

How have you seen the effects of the Cognitive Cycle in your struggle? How has porn become a way for you to mentally avoid or disengage from some parts of your life?
