Description
Revised and updated in December 2017.
When high speed Internet became widely available a few years ago, growing numbers of people began to worry that their porn use was running out of control. Far from preparing them for fulfilling relationships, viewing an endless stream of porn videos led to unexpected symptoms. Perhaps most surprisingly, for the first time in history erectile dysfunction was becoming a significant problem for young men. This led to one of the largest informal experiments in the history of science. Tens of thousands of people have tried abstaining from sexually stimulating material in a process they call "rebooting." Many of them reported startling changes, from improved concentration and elevated mood to a greater capacity for real-life intimacy.
Gary Wilson has listened to the stories of those who have tried giving up Internet porn and related them to an account of how the reward system of the brain interacts with its environment. And now a growing body of research in neuroscience is confirming what these pioneers have discovered for themselves - Internet pornography can be seriously addictive and damaging.
In Your Brain on Porn Wilson provides a concise introduction to the phenomenon of Internet porn addiction that draws on both first-person accounts and the findings of cognitive neuroscience. In a voice that is generous and humane, he also offers advice for those who want to stop using Internet pornography. The publication of Your Brain on Porn is a landmark in our attempts to understand, and remain balanced in, a world where addiction is big business.

Almost There; Misses the Mark
1. This book is full of an ABSURD amount of testimonials.It feels like a sales pitch.
2. I DO think porn can be a problem 100%, and IS a problem for many a young male, including myself. However, this book is far too often transphobic and homophobic. A central point continually addressed is how "porn addiction makes you start being aroused by trans and homosexual porn" as if that's the singular reason, when sexuality simply is not as rigid as most conservative minded folk would like to pretend it is.
Being attracted to trans people and people of the same sex is not an illness. This book misses the mark very, very often. Cannot recommend as a serious forray into addressing porn addiction.

Good info
Gives a lot of good insight as to what is and isn't healthy with porn. He at no point says you do or don't have a problem, you need to self assess.

No holds barred
I come from a conservative background, but only for last 25 years. Prior to that I spent the first part of my life up to age 21 living a seculare life.
I appreciate forwardness of the author and the candid testimonials. If you are working on recovery from a porn enduced life then you need to hear from all sides. If you are a conservative (Christian) background you need not act offended when you listen to this book. These are real people and their data being presented... so that you can see "porn knows no devisity" and it is waging havoc on many lives. Thank you for not holding back. ML

Life changing.
This should be listened or read by every single person, especially men. The harms porn cause should be exposed just like cigarettes. Every porn website should put some advertisement of the harms caused by porn exposure.
This book is very informative, sounds unbiased and totally scientific based.
Should be mandatory to read at school. Honestly, I am astonished.

Narrator sounds like a frat boy talking about his sexual conquests.
It gets kind of graphic and his descriptions more information than is necessary for helping those who are trying to overcome pornography addiction and may trigger some on wholesome thoughts. the info by Dr. Wilson is pretty good corroborated by a lot of research

a must-read for all couple therapists!
I'm a couple and family therapist and consider my self very well read but this book contains information I've never heard before in any other school program, workshop or even books. It helped me correctly identify the problem and help a client save his marriage. I'm very sure that without the knowledge provided in this book I would, as all his previous mental health professionals, have looked for history of trauma and misdiagnosed him with attachment disorder, depression and social anxiety. We could have spent months talking about his relationship with his mother. He is very lucky I happened to find this book and I am now recommending it to all my students and colleagues.

too many testimonials...
the content of the book was good, it really helped me understand how watching porn changes the brain. I could have done without all the testimonials though. it seemed like they were never ending then I lost my thought about the ACTUAL content.

a great view about porn addiction and how it works
But nothing else. you will understand how porn addiction works but the understanding won't help you to quit. but it will give you a notion how the stuff works.

Absolute MUST!
Wow, this is an absolute must read!
Porn does more damage then most of us know. I felt these symptoms but was rationalizing them to be just in my mind and it can’t be that bad. I started as a teenager watching porn. I had the first time sex when I was 12 years and thought this is totally normal. I kept watching porn though and sex was great but obviously not enough. 14 years later I am listening to this book because I am building my own business and being in a committed relationship. I can’t concentrate, feel often bored, I can’t do normal tasks anymore etc. There is so much to say about this topic and this book helped me to make my final decision to stop! It’s not worth it! I can identify with most symptoms describe in this book which made it clear for me that this isn’t just in my mind „Porn Addiction“ is real! It make us numb and kills our drive, makes us feel isolated even if we are with people. I even had the experience that I was in social events and felt mentally totally checked out. I was there, but wasn’t there. I didn’t realize that this as well was because of porn. I think porn is more dangerous than we think and it‘s a blessing for us to go through that now because it will be our job to protect the new generation with this new found knowledge and experience!

Male focused copy-paste from Wikipedia book
The book is male focused, meaning it is written for men. There was barely any examples about women being addicted to porn. Generally I had a feeling that someone had copy pasted a lot of facts from Wikipedia and just red them out loud. Added to the facts there are bunch of stories which people have left in the internet talking about becoming free from their addiction. the examples are just being red out. The book is not structured well. It feels like a copy paste book. It is also not very informative.

too many personal accounts
Although I firmly believe that porn has an overwhelmingly negative impact in people, even listening to this book felt like a pointless chore. Half of the information in this book is just personal accounts. This makes it feel like a sales pitch in the worst possible way. There is some scientific basis to the claims made and the author should have focused more on those.

Helps to understand your situation and ways put of it
Listen to this book, when you are at the point of fighting against porn. It's easy to say "i have a problem". There are many videos and sites summering it. But to go further you will need to understand how your brain works within all this. This book provides understandable informations on a neutral base. It gives you hope, that you can return to a normal sex life. - but you should listen it only when able to fully concentrate.
