Pornography Addiction - The Hunt

Pornography addicts commonly go through a process I like to call "the hunt." The best way to explain the hunt is to understand the brain. The brain has a part called the "limbic system" and another part known as the "frontal cortex." The limbic part of the brain is the instinctive or survival part. The frontal cortex is the logical and thinking part of the brain.

All animals have a limbic system as well, but most have very limited if any frontal cortex. Take a lion for example. If a lion is hungry, what does it do? It goes on the hunt and with fluid skill stalks out, hunts, and attacks its prey. In other words...it eats at all costs. This is a function of the limbic system.
