#269- Is My Porn Use Causing Me Become A Creepy Person?

About this episode

The episode explores whether porn use is contributing to feelings of creepiness towards women and discusses the complexities of OCD in relation to self-perception.

Cheesecake Destroyer, no that is not their real name (probably), messaged me a question that is more complicated than it seems. They want to know whether their use of porn is causing them to be creepy toward women. They acknowledge they have had this obsession for while, but does that mean they need to quit porn? Is this really a question, or are they looking for permission? Are they hoping I’ll say, “It’s all OK, and you’re OK”? Can exposures help with this? How can someone work toward being a better person while also recognizing their OCD is wrapped up with the concern about being better (or being creepy)? Learn more about Moral Scrupulosity!
