Quitting visual porn. Is written erotica as bad as porn?

[InbetweenDreams]

To me it sound like a myth that testosterone goes down if you jerk off...I would be inclined to think the opposite, or perhaps losing the desire to have sex (not getting horny) would be a sign of low testosterone.

That all being said, we're all susceptible to all that stuff, myself included. It can be tricky to find genuine people. I mean you can find doctors on YouTube with large followings who say that statins are bad and list all the reasons why to a "medium" amount of depth, just enough for someone like me to buy into. There's a problem with that stuff and it may not be so much that they're wrong but how they put it into context is. Take the statin stuff for example, statins might not be good for you in the long run but having high cholesterol is probably worse in that it will increase the likelihood of having a heart attack. Of course they're the anti-vaxxers.

But yeah I wouldn't worry too much, whether it is hardcore stuff or not. I mean unless you're living at your computer and can no longer find any clean socks to wear, you're probably ok.
