Quitting porn is hard. But staying addicted to it is even harder.

In this episode of The Pausing Porn Podcast, I talk about why relapse can feel like the easy option in the moment and how it actually makes life more difficult over time. I break down what really happens after a relapse, how urges get stronger when we act on them, and why porn is often a way to escape stress, anxiety, or discomfort rather than the real problem itself.

Using personal experiences and reflections from my own recovery, I explain why sitting with urges is a skill that takes practice and why choosing recovery, even when it feels hard, leads to a better life than staying stuck in compulsive porn use.

If you are struggling with urges, relapse cycles, or building a life free from porn, this episode will help you reframe the choice in front of you and move forward with clarity.

Listen now and choose your hard.
