Overcoming Pornography!
Manage episode 338252293 series 2982377
Addiction of any kind can be devastating to one's self-esteem, happiness, and well-being. Sadly, however, many addictions are more socially acceptable than others. Pornography is especially pernicious because it's effects cause damage to children and adults alike. Unlike other vices, pornography is to the user more affordable, more accessible, and more anonymous. Many under its submission are ashamed, embarrassed, and uneasy about seeking the help they need to emancipate themselves of the burden they carry. In this episode Mike speaks with a mental health nurse practitioner, Isaiah Cruz, about the various recovery programs available to those seeking treatment. While there is a myriad of counseling services, including faith-based programs, 12-step recovery models, and accountability exercises, psychiatry has shown that these methods show only a 4% success rate and medication assisted treatment show a 50% success rate within 1-2 years. Though the use of SSRIs is controversial and prompts many questions, sometimes addiction recovery must be addressed immediately when no other alternative methods are working.
