Sexual fantasy and watching porn = same relapse

It is science that imagining and performing an activity activate many of the same neural network. Ex : in strenght training : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14998709.

That's why the greatest athletes, musicians or painters imagined their activity before doing it. For example, Michael Jordan said : "I visualized where I wanted to be, what kind of player I wanted to become. I knew exactly where I wanted to go, and I focused on getting there."

Now transpose with porn and fetish. By using sexual fantasy, you inscribe neural network that will create in real life the exact person who is performing in your imagination. And it is true with the most disturbing fetishes. Imagine it vividly and you are already almost acting. Conclusion: beware imagination like nothing else.
