I'd like to read more articles like that in the mainstream press.

Pretty good read that! It was very interesting indeed, however I think a warning should be added: At the bottom of the story there were several links to other articles featuring semi-nude girls. It might work as a trigger for someone and that's something I hope nobody has to encounter on this forum :/

Oh yes the "link bait".  Using women's bodies to get you to click on other articles. I hate that!!

Hello I'm new here.  :)

Nice article indeed. One point in particular stuck with me:

In discussing his work and aims, he makes one particularly sad observation: ?Today people use porn as a mood modifier,? he says. ?If you are feeling bored, anxious, lonely, angry, sad or have any other negative emotion, you can turn some porn on and instantly escape from that discomfort.?

It's so true. After a few days of nofap (when I'm successful enough to make it just three days - a rarity for me lately) I start getting overwhelming feelings of loneliness. The PMO is so ridiculously effective at killing that emotion.
