Dr. Trish Leigh Podcast
Porn has been shown to create underactivity in the frontal lobe and reward centers in the brain. Porn can increase your anxiety, depression, mood problems, strain your relationships, and even give you erectile dysfunction. Dr. Trish Leigh will teach you how porn can ruin your brain and what to do to heal it.

Episode #232: Is Gooning Training Your Brain Away From Real Sex?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Porn still works. So why does real intimacy feel harder?
You can get aroused alone, but with a partner, you lose focus, struggle to stay responsive, or worry whether your body will cooperate.
Is Gooning Training Your Brain Away From Real Sex? 👇
In this video, Dr. Trish Leigh explains how prolonged gooning, endless novelty, and dopamine-driven stimulation can condition arousal and change what your brain expects from sex.
You'll learn:
Why porn can feel easier than real intimacy
How dopamine and novelty shape arousal
What prolonged gooning trains your brain to expect
How performance anxiety makes the disconnect worse
How neuroplasticity can help retrain desire
Porn isn't always the root cause of sexual performance issues. However, if arousal comes easily with a screen but real-world intimacy consistently feels out of reach, neural conditioning is likely at play.
Your brain learns through repetition. It can learn something different.
